Upgrade Path for Centax Clutches Using Serpent SER1388

The Serpent SER1388 5x10 Ceramic Thrust Bearing is aimed at lowering rolling resistance in Centax clutches to sharpen throttle response. Ceramic balls reduce mass and help the bearing resist wear under frequent use.

Ceramic Advantages for RC Use

Ceramic elements cut friction and offer superior hardness compared to steel, which can translate into steadier clutch engagement and fewer replacements over time. This makes the bearing a worthwhile tweak for regular track sessions.

Quick Install Guide

Designed to fit Centax 2 and Centax 3 systems, this thrust bearing installs without complex modifications. Clean parts and simple alignment during fitting will ensure smooth running straight away.

Will this change clutch engagement feel?

Yes, you should notice crisper engagement and reduced drag, which often improves throttle control especially in technical sections.

Do I need special tools to fit the SER1388?

No specialised tools are usually required; standard hobby tools and care to align the bearing correctly are sufficient for installation.

Can I run the bearing without extra lubrication?

Many users run ceramic bearings with minimal lubrication. A light, appropriate lubricant can be used if you prefer, but avoid heavy greases that attract debris.
