Tips on Cleaning & Lubricating Ball Bearings (RC Bearing Tips)
Tips for Handling New Ball Bearing: Most competition RC racers will clean the grease on the new ball bearings and apply ball bearing oil on them. (i.e. Yeah Racing High Speed Bearing Oil / Lube #YA-0215). As re-oiling the ball bearing allows the RC cars to run smoother and makes the bearings more durable.
Tips for Maintaining Old Ball Bearing: By removing the old bearing oil, it will reduce the friction in the bearing, thus making RC car run faster. Below are some tips in cleaning the ball bearings.
Preparation: |
|
High Speed Bearing Oil / Lube (#YA-0215) Universal Cleaning Case (#YA-0223) Aluminum Bearing Inner Size Measurer For 2-14mm (#YT-0021)

Step 4: Re-greasing
|
|
|
Dry the ball bearing with hot air gun / hair blower to prevent rusting of the bearing.
|
Apply light oil on the bearings, give it about 20 minutes to penetrate the seals and then clean the outsides up.
