Hard to find bearing size. -
06.12.2011, 01:11 AM
I'm looking for a bearing that measures 8x17x6mm. (17mm diameter, 8mm hole, 6mm thick) I can't seem to find one anywhere. I've looked at ebay, avid, bocca, and acer.
 I need four for a project on my e-revo.Any suggestions? Edit, I was able to find my desired size on google, but they are $25 a pop............ |

You could use a shim (aluminum foil) around an 8x16x6 bearing which is more common.
Edit: 8x19x6 is also common... |

Good idea, but these will be the outer wheel bearings in the revo knuckles. Not sure if I want to go that route. Now why did Hot Racing have to go and use a 17mm bearing.

So they could charge you $25 for it.

The knuckles I have use 6x17x6 bearings. I'm wanting to use Losi XXL driveshafts. That's why I need the 8mm bore. I wouldn't mind using a 8x16x6 bearing, I just wouldn't want to shim it with aluminum foil. Is there a better shim option out there? I'm not sure if a metal sleeve that is .5mm thick and 17mm in diameter exists? |

Yeah, it seems using "24 AWG sheet" as a search term doesn't turn up anything useful...
I'm not sure where you're located, but if you're in the USA I'd go here: http://www.onlinemetals.com/merchant...=76&top_cat=60 Or, if you would prefer stainless, that item you linked to will work fine. It will be harder to form, though. |
