Any good Aliexpress spool bearings

[y2k88]

Has anyone found any reliable spool bearings on aliexpress?

They'll work, but they aren't going to be any better than stock bearings from Daiwa or Shimano (not sure about Abu).

More so to replace some of the dodgier aliexpress bearings on the aliexpress spools.
But not sure if there are any good ones out there.

I personally use Hawgtech bearings which can be had as low as 8.00 each.

Yeah, I ended up trying a local source (Plaig bearings).
Less than AU$6 for a S/steel bearing. Cheap enough for one here, one there.

Not sure. I bought some Ray's micro bearings and they were great. On par with my HH Air bearings. I have a bunch of the old style Ray's spools that have what look like the same bearings and they are awful. I either got lucky with the bearings I bought or they are actually better than what is on the Ray's spools. No idea

Check out Kyosho RC car bearings. I use them in all my Ali Express spools.

Never had any issues with these https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3233875 ... 4cb9LKOy8y

If they dont spin too well, remove the seals and clean them. I find them to be as good as abec7 BOCA's which are overpriced as hell for what they are.

I've had good luck with trb bearings from eBay, they would be cheaper than some of those AliExpress bearings.
