Description

The 2536 1" x 52mm Standard Steel Ball Bearing (UC205-16) is a high-quality, free-spinning bearing designed for use in go-karts, racing mowers, and small machinery. It features low-contact seals and is pre-lubricated with minimal grease (unless otherwise noted) for low-friction performance—ideal for high-speed or racing applications.


Built with a 1-inch inner diameter and 52mm outer diameter, this bearing fits standard 1" bearing flanges and cassettes. The integrated set screw locking system (1/4"-28) ensures a secure fit on the axle or shaft, reducing vibration and maintaining alignment under load.

  • Inside Diameter (ID): 1" (25.4mm)
  • Outside Diameter (OD): 52mm (2.047")
  • Total Width: 34mm (1.339")
  • Outer Race Width: 17mm (0.669")
  • Locking Mechanism: Dual Set Screws (1/4"-28)
  • Seals: Low-contact
  • Lubrication: Pre-lubricated, oil-recommended for race use


Key Features:

  • Fits standard 1" go-kart axle setups
  • Free-spinning design minimizes drag
  • Low-contact seals for smooth operation
  • Pre-lubricated and ready to install
  • Ideal for racing mowers, mini bikes, karts, and DIY builds


Pro Tip:

For best performance, apply Lubtek or Tri-Flo bearing oil before each race or heavy use. Avoid penetrating oils, which can degrade bearing life and lubrication quality.
