Although this is only an oiled bearing, it is highly recommended for high speeds and quiet operation, even in powered applications. It has been tested in high-speed powered applications and proven just as capable as other grease packed equivalents. The radial ABEC bearing is assembled in the outer housing for easy installation. The hex adapter eliminates metal-to-metal contact between the bearing and axle which reduces noise during operation. Metal shields on the internal radial bearing prevent dirt and debris from entering the bearing without creating rotational drag. Not affective against small particle dust. Recommended for high-speed powered conveyor applications with moderate to light loads.
