BB-850C2 5x8x2.5 Ceramic Bearing from Yokomo

The Yokomo YOKBB850C2 is a 5x8x2.5mm ceramic ball bearing intended for RC applications where space and friction matter. It matches standard 5x8x2.5mm dimensions and is suitable for use in wheel hubs, gearbox assemblies, motor shafts and other compact bearing mounts on electric RC models.

The design uses ceramic balls with stainless steel races to provide a balance of reduced friction and reliable wear resistance. Compared to some conventional steel bearings, the ceramic/steel combination can lower rolling resistance while remaining compatible with typical RC retention methods and spacings.

Fitment tips: press bearings evenly into place using a driver or socket sized to the race, and avoid driving on the inner or outer race directly. To remove bearings, use a puller or press them out carefully from the opposite side to avoid damaging hub threads or sealed components.

Care and setup: inspect bearings frequently for debris and wear, clean with an appropriate solvent if contaminated, and add a light bearing oil or grease made for ceramic/steel bearings to suit conditions and desired drivetrain response. Correct lubrication helps maintain smooth operation and extends service life.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.
Ceramic balls are harder and can resist surface wear better than some steels, but longevity depends on race material, lubrication and operating conditions; the stainless races paired here offer a practical compromise.
When bearings become gritty, clean with a suitable solvent, let dry, then apply a light lubricant appropriate for ceramic/steel bearings. Avoid heavy greasing unless slow rotation is desired.
Stainless races offer corrosion resistance, but salt and persistent moisture can still cause issues. Rinse and dry promptly after exposure and relubricate to protect surfaces.
Use a light oil or a low-viscosity grease formulated for hybrid ceramic bearings; the choice depends on track conditions and whether lower drag or longer life is the priority.
