Tamiya 50228 Plastic Bearing Upgrade Set  [50228]

Lightweight Bearings for Everyday RC Use

The Tamiya 50228 Plastic Bearing Set is designed to be a practical upgrade or maintenance item. Made from tough plastic, these bearings reduce rotating weight and help trailers, cars and buggies run with less drag. They are a simple way to keep drivetrains running smoothly between major service intervals.

Advantages of Plastic Components

Because they are lighter and nonmetallic, plastic bearings lower the risk of corrosion and cut down on maintenance needs. They are compatible with many standard RC assemblies, and their low weight can slightly improve responsiveness in electric setups.

Compatible RC Uses

Suitable for a wide array of models including touring cars, off-road buggies and general-purpose rigs, the bearings adapt well across chassis types. Their quieter roll can be useful when testing setups or driving in noise-sensitive locations.
