Sackorange 608 ZZ Skateboard Bearings, Double Shielded,8x22x7 Miniature Ball Bearings（Pack of 20)

packed with sticky grease to make the bearings appear more precise. Once you remove the greese with a good degreaser (major effort) and replace it with a light oil you notice a lot of play in the bearings dimensionally. If your just looking for a cheap bearing that spins fast then these will do. If your using these for any projects that require some accuracy on center of bearing look elsewhere.

I got the bearing to use for the 3d print parts, but out of the box the bearing does not rotate too well. You may need some clean up and re lubricant depends on the use. Overall its OK for basic use.

Product is as described

These might be good for heavy projects but they dont turn very easily and they came really sticky all over like some cheap greese, idk. Im going to return these and go with a little more expensive set.

Everything is great as far as value for the money and thickness. One thing that could improve is the movement. Doesn’t spin as easy as I thought it would. But I’m also not a pro when it comes to bearings.

Seems to be solid standard 608 bearings, though they are packaged with heavy grease an do NOT spin freely. You have to take time an resources to properly clean them out with a solvent before RE-greasing or oiling them. Out of the box, they are stiff to roll an notchy. Once I put them in a sonic bath an regreased them, they were fine. Much like standard mid-quality sk8 bearings. For the price, sure, theyre fine enough for skating, but for 3D print applications, they are not plug n play, you need to coddle them, therefore, I took a star or two off the score. Better off going to your nearest skate shop for ready to ride bearings.

Ive used these for around a year in a few applications and overall if youre looking for something low speed with radial only (no axial) load then these will probably be fine. Anything high speed (greater than around 200 rpm) will quickly destroy the bearings and anything with any axial load will quickly destroy the internal balls. I used these in a cnc router as guide for lead screws and the axial load destroyed them in less than 20 total hours of use.

You’re probably looking at these because they have a good price point, which they do. And that really low price point is the only reason they’re not even more lowly rated. The bearings come heavily coated with grease - enough that it actually hinders rotation. It seems like this is done because it also hides imperfections in the bearings. After clearing the bearings they rotate much more freely, but have a definite wobble to some of them. I compare them to a 20 year old set of real ABEC 7 bearings in my rollerblades and these are definitely not ABEC 7. So, if you’re looking for some bearings for a robotics project where they’re on an idler pulley, these are fine. But if you think you’re gonna drop these into a board or skates, keep looking.

The bearings I received were corroded (ok, they are carbon steel and not stainless) and felt greasy. Grease should not be leaking out of these things, even if they are merely shielded and not actually sealed. They were also rough to turn, as though the races and balls were badly pitted, or had dirt inside. I started to wonder if they were actually used, and salvaged from old skateboards. Thank goodness Amazon takes returns. I ended up buying a different bearing for 2x the price, still very cheap, and a much better product. Don’t waste your time with these.

As others have mentioned, out-of-the box these bearings do not spin well at all. Theyre covered in a viscous oil thats most likely there to protect against rust. Just run some 3-in-One Multipurpose Oil through them a few times; this will both clear out the thick oil and lubricate the bearings as well. They seem to be just as high quality bearings as most others.
