500Pcs Assorted Loose Bicycle Bearing Balls 1/8, 5/32, 3/16 7/32 and 1/4

Is what I ordered

Buying this quantity, of this particular item made me uncomfortable. I really only needed a few. That said, they make great acrylic paint and pigment agitators.

These worked well to repack my headset and bottom bracket bearings.

The bearings I received are very dull looking and have pits in them! Chinese junk. Would not recommend these.

This product does exactly what it is supposed to do.

Used on a bicycle crank rebuild. Just what I needed.

Broke the front axle in my Alex 29er wheel so I got a new axel and these to replace the OE bearing. These bearings are high quality for the price. These should be on the shelf of anyone who rides bikes.

Cheap and decent assortment of bearings for bikes. Really only need 2 sizes for common cup and cone bike hubs and bottom brackets. 9 * 1/4 balls per side in the rear hub, 10 * 9/10/11 rule-of-thumb. Nine 1/4 balls per side in the rear hub, 10 3/16 balls per side in the front hub, and eleven 1/4 balls per side in the bottom bracket. 3/16 balls per side in the front hub, and 11 * 1/4 balls per side in the bottom bracket. Use 1/8” and 5/32” in headsets and pedals that use loose or caged balls. They work and the price is right. I didn’t measure them and I take their hardness values at face value. (You want the balls softer than the races so the easy to replace balls wear, not the races.) Pull apart old bearings. Take out balls and probably lose some. Measure balls or just look up what is needed. Clean out old grease from races. Apply new grease to races. Place balls in grease. Reassemble bearing. Tighten preload (aka sideways tightness) until you have that magic spot between too loose/sideways play and too tight/binding. Expect to take a few tries to get it right.

They come individually packaged by size. They seem hard and they don’t rust. Work as they should.
