 |  Bullseye Abec 7 Bearings
BULLSEYE BEARINGS! Finally, a high-end, super fast, durable/dependable bearing at an affordable price, you could say we hit the bullseye. Making a great bearing starts with having a lot of expertise, and using the best materials. Bullseye uses super hard Chrome Steel balls that measure 65 on the Rockwell Scale; each ball is tested to ensure that is perfectly round. The balls run in deep-grove race ways, and are retained by a self-lubricating Delrin crown. A low viscosity synthetic oil bas been added to make these bearings spin great, while keeping friction levels at a minimum. Each bearing feature dual rubber shields (seals) to protect the bearing from dust and other contaminates. The shields also make this bearing completely serviceable.
What is ABEC?
The ABEC scale is an industry accepted standard for the tolerances of a ball bearing. It was developed by the Annular Bearing Engineering Committee (ABEC) of the American Bearing Manufacturers Association (ABMA). There are five classes from largest to smallest tolerances: 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9. The higher ABEC classes provide better precision, efficiency,[citation needed] and greater speed capabilities, but do not necessarily make the components spin faster.[1] The ABEC rating does not specify many other critical factors, such as smoothness of the rolling contact surfaces, ball precision or quality/type of steel used.
The bearing material is not specified in the ABEC grades. Bearings not conforming to at least ABEC 1 can not be classified as precision bearings as their tolerances are too loose.
The scale is designed to allow a user to make an informed decision about the type of bearing they are purchasing. High rated bearings are intended for precision applications like aircraft instruments or surgical equipment. Lower grades are intended for the vast majority of applications such as vehicles, mechanical hobbies, skates, skateboards, fishing reels and industrial machinery. High ABEC rated bearings allow optimal performance of critical applications requiring very high RPM and smooth operation.
