Following the success of the Roche ceramic range of bearings for electric cars, the company have now released ceramic bearings for the Serpent 733 and Mugen MTX-4R. The ceramic ball are made from pure Silicon Nitride material which is extremely dense. 60% lighter in weight and 7 times harder than steel, friction is reduced to near zero meaning your car’s acceleration and top speed will be better. The rubber seals are “LLB” low contact labyrinth type on both sides and after a few runs you will notice your bearing will get even smoother when the bearing seal beds in.
