For those wanting a straightforward parts swap, the Serpent 1396 - Stainless Steel Ball Bearings 8x16x5 (Set of 2) deliver a dependable upgrade for many RC platforms. They fit common hubs and spindles and help cut rolling resistance while improving durability.

Engineered for Consistency

The Serpent 1396 bearings are made from stainless steel to resist wear and contamination, giving steady performance lap after lap. They are well suited to regular maintenance cycles and club racing use.

Fitment Notes and Installation

These 8x16x5mm bearings fit a wide selection of chassis layouts and press in with basic tools. Careful installation and light lubrication will help them settle correctly and extend service life.

Can I use these bearings on an off-road buggy?

Yes. Stainless steel construction helps resist damage from dirt and impacts, but regular cleaning and relubrication after rough runs will keep them performing well.

What tools are recommended for installing these bearings?

A bearing press is ideal, though a socket that matches the outer race and a vice or careful tapping with a soft drift can work for hobbyists. Avoid forcing them at an angle.

How should I maintain the bearings for long life?

Inspect bearings regularly, remove debris, and apply a light bearing oil or appropriate grease depending on the run conditions to reduce wear.
