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

Great product for the money spent

very good for my job

I love these for 3d prints! They dont spin forever like a fidget spinner would, but then again they shouldnt. The grease is viscous enough to prevent free/loose movement on the filament holder that I printed. If these spun easily and for a long time, I would have tangled filament! I suppose the grease could be replaced if you need a longer spinning bearing, but you might be better off getting another product.

Was swapping these into a 1/5 rc car and out of the 20 I was lucky to get 6 that werent gritty. Well see how long they last but next time Ill spend a bit more and get some from a company that has some better tolerances. After blowing out the grease and re-lubeing they got a bit better but still not as smooth as I am used to. Plus side, they dont chirp but thats about it. Update - 7/31/21 - They chirp. Got gritty quick and not smooth. Look elsewhere.

I wish I had read more of the reviews. These are packed in such heavy grease that they are practically impossible to use out-of-the-box. They do not spin freely. Some reviewers have said this is actually preferable for industrial use. That may be. The product name says Skateboard Bearings and they are unusable for that purpose. Others say to take degreaser to these bearings and re-lubricate them. Again, that might be fine for some folks, but I bought a product, not a project. These are going straight in the trash and Ill buy free-spinning bearings from a local skate shop.

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.

Inexpensive option for non performance related projects where the bearing must spin but does not need to spin freely/loosely (ex a carousel vs a fidget spinner). -- 100% worked for what I needed but will likely look for a different freer spinning bearing on my next purchase.

They pretty sticky out of the box but thats just because theyre packed with grease, a quick spray with some simple green followed by some compressed air and some oil frees them right up. You could skip all that and just blast them with WD-40 but I like to use actual bearing oil. That said, the tolerances are actually kinda terrible, they have quite a bit of slop in them and they feel rough when you spin them. I suspect thats why they over grease them, to hide the bad tolerances and low quality balls/races inside. I dont use them for anything load bearing or fast speeds, these are just used for the filament roller guides on my 3d printer.

They come coated in thick greasy shmoo and dont spin well at all. but a few liberal sprays of WD-40, spinning it a few times in-between sprays, and they spin real nice. about 4 out of 5 spin well so far, some have what feels like metal bits in them that prevents super smooth spin. i havent taken the lid off of them, just sprayed the sides, and the WD-40 works its way inside. for 10$ getting 20 of these, even if only half worked, i would have been happy. im using these for robotics, not skateboards. packaging is a little lacking, but ive seen worse

I bought these to use for 3D prints instead of skateboarding, so my review doesnt necessarily reflect their intended use. Ive noticed for about half of these bearings, they tend to bind up and stop spinning at lower speeds. And they dont come with any greese or oil in them as far as I can tell. Ive sprayed silicone lubricant in them and that seems to make some of them work better, but most of the problem bearings still bind up at low speeds. They all function, but if you want extremely smooth and reliable bearings, Id suggest you look somewhere else. They functioned just fine for my project, but I think the quality control could be better.
