Associated RC8T4e 1/8th Metal Shielded Bearing Kit (RCZASC141B)

The Associated RC8T4e 1/8-scale Metal Shielded Bearing Kit is a complete bearing set designed to refresh or upgrade the RC8T4e’s drivetrain. It includes standard, flanged, one-way and thrust bearings as needed, with extra bearings included for spares. Packaged in a reusable storage container, it’s a handy addition to any toolbox for field maintenance or ongoing RC performance.

Metal shielded bearings feature removable shields for cleaning and re-oiling, while rubber shielded bearings offer strong dirt protection for off-road use. Metal shielded bearings typically run with lower friction for smoother operation and higher performance, whereas rubber shielded bearings are grease-packed and require a short break-in time to reach peak performance.
