Precision Bearings for Better Handling

Hobbyists upgrading their running gear will find the Serpent 1396 - Stainless Steel Ball Bearings 8x16x5 (Set of 2) a practical choice for smoother wheel rotation. They are sized to match common axles and rotating parts for a neat fit.

Durable Stainless Construction

These Serpent 1396 bearings use stainless steel to resist corrosion and wear, keeping rolling action consistent across practice sessions. They suit racers who value predictable bearing behaviour.

Compatibility and Simple Fitment

At 8x16x5mm these bearings are compatible with many chassis designs and require only basic pressing or seating techniques during installation. Match them to your existing bearing seats for best results.

Will these bearings change my car's feel on the track?

They can reduce friction slightly and provide smoother roll, which may translate to crisper steering and a small lap time benefit when fitted and lubricated correctly.

Are these bearings heavy?

Stainless steel bearings are slightly heavier than ceramic options, but the weight is minimal for most club and contest applications.

How do I verify they will fit my model?

Check your current bearing dimensions; these are 8x16x5mm. If your hubs take that size, the Serpent 1396 bearings should seat properly.

Any tips for initial installation?

Press them in squarely, avoid hammering the inner race, and use light lubrication to help them spin freely from the start.
