Wheel Bearing Comparison

PerfTech

Well Known Member
.... I have had several requests, asking for comparisons of our ball bearing mods
to the Beringer ball bearing wheels. So here are a few things to see and ponder.
.

....This first photo shows a very graphic comparison of the Beringer wheel bearing, as compared to our
front nose wheel bearings used in our wheel modification. As you can plainly see, there is a considerable
difference in physical size, and all ratings are two too three times higher as well. These will outlast not just
the competitions product, but most likely your aircraft as well, with a lifetime of trouble free operation.
...The next two images show (on the left) the very robust, double sealed, extreme service bearings we
use in our main wheel mods. These are made for very extreme applications, and can actually run submerged
in mud, sand, and water with no adverse effects or impact on their service life. No more packing wheel
bearings, or grease on the brake rotors causing hot spots, brake problems, and main gear leg shaking.
Anyone interested in this mod, or in need of more information please have a look at our website. I hope
this somewhat clarified some of the differences in these units. Thanks, Allan:D
