"Quiet, smooth long spin, the best bearing without paying so much more for ceramics."

Find Best Price at Amazon"The problem is that if you go out searching for individual packages of ball bearings, they are often fairly expensive (meaning something like $10 for 25 one quarter inch bearings) and with no way of knowing if the grade they indicate is in fact true. A grade 300 bearing is a crap bearing (used in say, a mass produced Wal-mart bike), a grade 100 is mediocre (used in say a $150 bike), a grade 50 bearing is decent (you can use it for six months to a year in a $300 bike) and a grade 25 bearing is higher end (but not superior) (use it in a bike above $500 or a hub like the Shimano Dura-Ace, Ultrega, XTR or XT). If you want a truly superior grade of ball bearing you can order some grade 5 or 3 ceramic bearings to use in something like a Dura-Ace or a Campagnolo Record hub. I am happy to report that I tested them down the hall at another lab that adjoins ours and they are indeed Grade 25 bearings and their hardness is HRC 61, which is indeed correct for high grade steel bearings."
"As you can see from the photo what arrived was a small plastic flip-top container with the balls all mixed together. As a remedy I fired up my 3d printer and made a handful of incrementally bigger plastic "sieves" that I could use to sort the balls."
"used them in wheel hubs and headset."
"hard round balls ... of course they're good, they're bearings ...."
"this item is excellent and the support it's wonderful I recomend."
"So once you have opened each bag for each size bearing you will need to provide your own bag."
"Excellent buy, needed replacement bearings for pedal crank on mountain bike."
"Great balls, came packaged well."

"The Blackstone pizza oven stopped rotating while heated."

"Bought it for my Blackstone oven, and it really make the rotating plate move so much more freely."
"I ordered this bearing set for a Blackstone Pizza Grill."
"These are high quality bearings and are doing exactly what I wanted them to do to reduce friction on a pizza roundtable in a very hot oven."
"There are two small bearing assemblies welded onto the turntable shaft itself that are designed to sit on top of the collar that is welded onto the middle oven support. Placing the thrust bearing between the welded collar and the two smaller welded bearings simply does not work."

"I had experience with a smaller, less powerful unit bought at CVS, but even that was helpful. (EBL 840 9V Battery Charger with 4 Pack 600mAh Li-ion Rechargeable 9 Volt Batteries). UPDATE Aug. 2017: I've used this unit for 4 months and it got me through a really horrible time where I was suffering from knotted shoulders and trapezius with terrible trigger points that were so bad I was unable to sleep on either shoulder for nearly 4 full months. UPDATE Sept. 2017: Well, unfortunately, the unit quit working a few days before I had to travel, so I was forced to buy another one to replace it. My original review was 5 stars, dropped to 3 while I waited for a refund, and am leaving it at 4 stars because the seller did take care of the issue and the new unit seems to be working fine (although I did just get it a month ago)."
"I get treated by my chiropractor every month with a professional TENS unit for Sciatic Nerve pain."
"This tens unit has just the right amount of power behind it, small size and features to make it a must have for those with MS, muscle or nerve pain. The housing isn't as nice as some of the higher-end commercial units, but the electrical configuration options are comparable. Sometimes I put it on low and just run it for 30 to 40 minutes while I read, work on the computer or watch tv. *It should be noted that this gizmo has decent power output and runs for a long time off of one 9v battery. The pads are comfortable--not overly sticky or gooey but nonetheless result in excellent adhesion. When finished just re-apply them to the sticker backing sheet they came with and reseal them in the envelope to extend the life of the pads."
"Tens units are the best when it comes to muscle pain."
"This is the second one of these to break within a month of use."

Or even something as simple as supporting something when you need to make a notch, drill a hole, trim an edge... these rollers are there to support you as well."
