- Consistent Tolerance Manufacturing — The bearings are manufactured to consistent tolerances throughout the production process, guaranteeing safe and secure assembly into your RC vehicle without any fitting issues or loose components.
- High-Quality Rubber Shields — Double rubber shields (2RS) provide enhanced protection against the elements, actively keeping dirt, water and dust out whilst keeping lubrication in where it's needed, dramatically reducing maintenance downtime.
- Extended Bashing Time — By protecting bearings from environmental contaminants and maintaining proper lubrication, these shields mean more time enjoying high-speed RC action and less time wrenching on your vehicle during maintenance sessions.

Technical Performance
These ball bearings represent the kind of precision engineering ARRMA is recognised for across the RC hobby. With an inner diameter of 12mm and an outer diameter of 18mm, combined with a 4mm thickness, these bearings are sized to fit the suspension and drivetrain components of numerous ARRMA RC models. The 2RS designation (Double Rubber Shield) is particularly important for UK RC enthusiasts, as it ensures your bearings maintain performance even when driving in typical British weather conditions. The rubber shields work by creating a barrier against moisture, dirt and dust whilst retaining the bearing grease, which is essential for smooth rotation and longevity. The premium ball-raced construction provides consistently low friction across the full range of operating speeds, from gentle control manoeuvres to maximum speed runs. Whether you're driving a brushless monster truck, a brushless short course truck, a brushless buggy or any other ARRMA RTR model, these bearings will integrate seamlessly into your vehicle's suspension and drivetrain systems, maintaining the responsive handling and smooth performance you expect from your radio-controlled vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the 2RS designation mean on these bearings? — The 2RS marking indicates these are double rubber shielded bearings, meaning they feature protective rubber seals on both sides. This design keeps dirt, water and dust out whilst retaining the bearing grease inside, making them ideal for outdoor RC use and reducing the frequency of maintenance sessions.
- Which ARRMA RC vehicles are these bearings compatible with? — These 12x18x4mm bearings are compatible with a wide range of ARRMA models across 1/10 and 1/8 scales, including the BIG ROCK series, GRANITE series, KRATON, OUTCAST, QUAKE, SENTON, VORTEKS, INFRACTION, MOJAVE, TYPHON and VENDETTA. Check your specific model's parts list to confirm compatibility.
- How often should I replace these bearings in my RC car? — The replacement frequency depends on driving conditions and usage intensity. Bearings driven frequently in muddy, dusty or wet conditions may need replacement more often than those used in cleaner environments. Regular inspection during routine maintenance will indicate when bearings are worn and require replacement.
- Are these genuine ARRMA parts? — Yes, these are official ARRMA parts manufactured to the brand's specifications. Purchasing genuine components ensures proper fit, compatibility and the performance standards ARRMA vehicles are designed to deliver.

Having spare bearings available allows you to perform preventative maintenance during scheduled servicing, replacing bearings before they wear out. This approach minimises unexpected failures during RC adventures and keeps your vehicle performing optimally.
- Do these bearings fit both front and rear suspension? — These bearings are designed to fit various locations on ARRMA RC models, though specific fitment locations vary by model. Always consult your vehicle's manual or parts diagram to identify the correct bearing locations for your specific ARRMA model.
