I just wanted to say that I'm not into RC cars, but I've been refurbishing shaft bearings in a similar way since before you were born [literally]. I gave your video a like because you presented the information in a clear, correct and pleasant way, sorta like Bob Ross. ;-) For those that have not done this before, let me assure you, it makes a world of difference and can often give you a couple more years of use for things like squirrel-cage fans, squeaky motors, skate boards, bicycle pedals, crank, wheel and neck bearings etc.. It can also breath new life into junkyard motors and shop tools and things, saving you lots of money. A great technique and tool to have for your whole life. Back in the day we used to use freon, trichloroethylene or M.E.K. and you almost didn't need to blow them dry, but that is nasty stuff before we knew about cancer and the ozone layer. Alcohol is a safe and cheap way to do it and not ruin the the atmospere; good choice. Best of luck on your channel, I'm off to find the next random KZfaq rabbit hole to fall into.

Another tip, for really old, dirty bearings where grease has solidified, or just lots of nasty gunk on them, you can use a cheap citrus-based household degreaser for the first few rounds. After washing, dump the wash-can into a colander (over the sink), rinse them with the faucet and all the dirty water goes down the drain. Use the alcohol for the final rinse. Less alcohol vapors, less chance of fire, less alcohol to dispose of properly. The citrus is cheaper and makes a pleasant smell for the girlfriend (who will think you clean your house or something). Citrus has natural sugars, so you have to get a proper rinse before drying. That's why I rinse with water [dissolve the sugars], follow with some kind of alcohol to displace the water and then spin or blow dry to get the alcohol out. If you don't own a compressor, you can put a thin cloth over a vacuum-cleaner hose so that it sucks it into the hose an inch or two, which makes a small bowl to drop the bearings. Stir them around for a minute or two and they'll get dry pretty quick. Pro tip: put a fresh bag in the vacuum in case you screw up and the bearing get sucked into the vacuum. You can also use a coffee filter or blue shop towel (risky), but white paper towels will get sucked into the vacuum every time.

PappyMan thanks for stopping by! I learned from my dad when I was a little guy. He also grew up using M.E.K. but warned against it for health reasons. Fun fact: the pliers used here are older than myself and possibly my dad as well haha

@pappyman179 6 жыл бұрын

Awesome. When I was 8 years old, I inherited a pair of wire-cutting pliers with a 1/2 inch-thick wrapping of friction tape on the handles. I was told that those pliers belonged to my grandfather who worked with the Roebling Wire and Rope company. Apparently my grandpa was an electrician and general worker that helped to build the Golden Gate bridge in San Francisco, CA. My family formal dining table was handed down to my mom by my grandma and she said that grandpa used to cover that table with blueprints until the wee hours -- while 'arguing emphatically' (as she would say) with one of the Roebling brothers about how the bridge should be constructed and properly maintained. Sadly, after cherishing (and using) those pliers for well over 3 decades, a burglar took them away forever. Cherish your memories. :) I love seeing dads and kids passing down knowledge and taking the torch for the next generation. It gives me hope. P.S. The friction tape was there for high voltage insulation because they didn't have plasti-dip, or plastic tape back then. Pro tip: decades-old friction tape is a sticky black horrible mess that only crunchy gojo can peel off your skin. ;-)

You were so kind to reply, so I subbed you for nostalgia reasons. Back in the '80s I hand-made an RC car, but it used a huge nitro-methane / castor oil engine (with glow plug) from a huge model plane. It would clear 60-70 IRL miles per hour and you could light up both of the 2" spongy rear tires at any speed with the flip of your finger. It used a brass band curved around the flywheel and attached to a servo for the brakes. I drew the chassis shape by hand on a sheet of 1/4 aircraft aluminum and cut it out with a moto-tool and cutoff wheel. I wasn't a very good driver, and in those days the trucker's CB radios were on the same frequency as the controller, so the servos would go spastic when a passing trucker keyed his mic. You can not imagine how badly that chassis rolled up and over itself when it hit a parking curb at 60+ mph. It looked like a rolled cinnamon roll. Oddly, the shock-mounted servos, batteries and all the parts in the rear were never damaged. I can't say the same about the front wheels and axles for obvious reasons. I did that again a few times with both a delrin and poly-carbonate hand-made chassis. Different failure modes, but all had the same outcome -- get out the pen and draw out a new chassis design. After 3 collisions-of-death, I finally admitted that I was a better engineer than I was a driver and the final 5/16 aluminum chassis was built and I sold the working car to a friend without me ever driving the final design (for obvious reasons).

Ultrasonic cleaner is great cleaner! (The precision guys say it pits the metal, but for RC it’s not a concern) however don’t fill the whole bath with denatured alcohol, as it has a low flash point. You can use a beaker or glass jar, make a rubber base (old rc tyres) and place that in the bath of water. That’s the basics but it works brilliantly. Plus the ultrasonic cleaner is great for cleaning other parts.

Great video! To reduce drag is it worth doing on new bearings as they come with grease and replace with a light oil?

@JeffSmith-eq3kc Жыл бұрын

One thing to look at would be NLGI-1 bearing greases. If you're looking for pure speed, no, but if you want some measure of longevity and speed then it's worth a look. There's a product made by Gennel that's a very light NLGI-1 bearing grease. It essentially turns into oil when the bearings are running but it gives you a bit of protection.

Back in the day seemed they all had those tiny C shaped clips, whether they were sealed or not. Man I had a bunch of those spring off and go flying. Once the bearing is open my favorite way to clean them was stick it on a shaft or a pencil or something and blast it at an angle with a spay can of electrical contact cleaner. It'll spin the bearing super fast and sling everything out. Plus it dries fast and leaves practically no residue.

@therccollaborative9524 5 жыл бұрын

I like how you explain that the grease is slower but increases the life of the bearing (implied). Using Oil does make the bearings faster;however. requires allot more maintenance and does not protect the bearing as well so I prefer to pack with grease which makes the bearing smoother and highly reduces wear while resisting moisture and dirt better. I believe if you wanted to run oil instead of grease I would keep 2 or 3 full sets of bearings on hand so you can swap them at any point and clean/re grease them in your off time. This will allow you to keep maintenance up while preventing having to stop and maintain your bearings every time you touch them. I would feel obligated to clean them each time I feel they are gritty which takes more time and this could be an issue when racing. Running them gritty wears the bearings out really fast. If I had more money to invest in bearings I would totally do this because I could benefit from the faster oil without worrying about immediate maintenance. How often do you end up cleaning your bearings? After each main race event? Or can you go longer?

@RevIt66 6 жыл бұрын

Hi Ryan, this maybe just a lazy trick, but i find it works on my old bearings.. I've always dodged removing seals, big fingers and knowing WD40 removes grease as well as water and dirt, just from playing with big cars all my life, i use it to clean the bearings complete, seals and all, of course with dirty bearings you need to repeat a few times like the alcohol, but with the WD and some working i find you can get them pretty decent, then just blow off, wipe then work the oil in past the seals, usually let them sit with the oil on top and it will soak in. I don't replace many bearings doing this, can usually get them spinning nicely, unless they are really shagged, lol.

@benpetz6816 6 жыл бұрын

Very good topic Ryan. I made a research a couple of years ago which oil is the best for bearings with low drag and it came out that Aeroshell fluid 12 shall be one of the best. It is used for aircraft instruments gimbal bearings etc. Unfortunately it is hard to get and also the price has raised a lot in the last years. I found also out that a few RC companies which sell small bearing oil bottles have these oil in the bottle but different labeled of course. Just for the information. Keep racing.

Hello Ryan, I was wondering, do you oil/lube your brushless motor bearings? I am starting over again with electric after a 22 year break, last I remember with brushed stock motors they had a bushing and we cleaned and oiled the motor after each race day, do we do the same with bearing'ed brushless motors? Thanks for any input.

@Jo90Lives 5 жыл бұрын

As another option try using Brake Cleaner (I use Wurth but anything in a can is OK). It breaks down the grease and blows the dirt out with the force from the can. I generally soak mine in WD40 for about 15-20 mins before which also softens any dirt or material in them. It leaves the bearings clean without having to remove steel cages (would still remove rubber ones) as well as evaporating away and leaving nothing to have to clean out. After oil the bearing as you have done with a light synthetic oil (mineral just degrades the bearings over time). Decent well kept bearings will last some time.

Ryan, I just got back into the hobby. I bought a set of ACER bearings, and I opened damn near all of them without finding one packed with grease. They all just had liquid oil in them.

Hi. I love your videos. If I buy the $50 set of "speed bearings" they have medal shields on both sides. Do those high price bearings have grease in them? Should I try and get the medal shield off or can I just oil the bearings?
