Cc 2200 Bearing Size?

[brushlessboy16]

What size bearings do the big castle motors use?

Not 100% sure, 5mm x 16mm x 5mm

+1 for Benji. 5 x 16 x 5.

Hi, same size also for 1520 ?

Bye, Andrea.

I believe so- its the same diameter motor and shaft, just longer.

I'll double check tomorrow and let you know. I'm pretty sure neil is right, but I want make sure. I'll get this information posted on our website as well; it should have already been there. My bad.

Out of curiosity, were you needing new bearings for the motor? So far I have heard of less than a half-dozen bearing failures with these motors; just making sure there's not a problem we don't know about or if you're just stocking up to be safe.

Hi Thomas, my question was just for curiosity and, eventually, to get some bearings to be used as a spare.

Besides, I wonder whether I can get some hybrid bearings (for example the ones from Boca Racing) to have even better performance with respect the factory bearings.

Bye, Andrea.

All of the 1500 series motor share the same size bearings; 5mm x 16mm x 5mm.
