I agree with the previous review. Unfortunately Losi missed the mark with these "Clutch Bearings". I shimmed the Clutch perfectly and these still blew apart in about 2 qualifiers (7 mins). I don't believe that these are actually designed for clutches. I would suggest going with JT bearings or something else that is proven. Stay away from these.
These are also used in the front wheel hubs of the XXX-SCB and XXX-SCT.
Ordered a pair of those bearings and they lasted for about one hour before one of them lost at least one of its shields! Didn't check the other one.
Three reviews give a split picture of this 5x10x4mm heavy duty bearing pair. Two reviewers rated it 1/5, reporting that the bearings failed quickly, one after about two qualifiers and the other after roughly one hour, with a shield lost on one bearing. One of these reviewers suggested the bearings may not be suited to clutch use and recommended alternatives. A third reviewer rated it 5/5 and noted that the same bearing size is used in the front wheel hubs of certain Losi XXX-SCB and XXX-SCT models. No reviewer reports on the bearing's performance in that hub application. The sample is small and the reviews conflict, so the overall picture is limited.
- + Used in XXX-SCB and XXX-SCT front hubs, per one reviewer
- − Failed quickly in clutch use, per two reviewers
- − Shield lost on one bearing after about one hour
