Smooth drivetrain upgrades with Tamiya bearings

The Tamiya 53270 - 1060 set equips RC models with precision bearings meant to lower friction and boost reliability. These bearings are a direct replacement for many factory bushings and are aimed at improving the feel and consistency of your vehicle. They are a practical choice when refreshing older kits or upgrading for better response.

Better control through reduced friction

Installing ball bearings reduces mechanical resistance around rotating components, which can result in crisper steering and steadier acceleration. The 53270 - 1060 parts help limit wear on shafts and gears, contributing to longer component life between services.

Easy swap-in installation

The bearings are straightforward to fit into compatible Tamiya assemblies and do not usually require special tools. For best longevity, fit them carefully and use light oil sparingly to keep contaminants out.

Many older Tamiya models accept these bearings, but it is recommended to verify the original bushing size or consult the parts list to confirm compatibility.
Most installations can be done with basic hand tools; a small arbor press helps for a snug fit but is not always essential.
They offer standard protection for hobby bearings, but avoid running directly through mud or salt water; clean and re-lubricate after exposure to prevent corrosion.
Bearings typically reduce friction and do not change gear ratios, but you may notice smoother power delivery and less drivetrain drag.
