BLACKBEARING MAX Bearing 17287 2RS (17x28x7 mm)
EAN: 3760365231415
SKU: UB-17287-MAX
Brand: BLACKBEARING
Type: MAX Frame Pivot Bearing
The BLACKBEARING MAX 17287 2RS bearing has been specifically designed for bicycle frame pivot applications. Unlike conventional bearings, it does not use a cage to separate the balls. Instead, it features a maximum number of balls packed into the bearing, significantly increasing load capacity and improving durability.
Frame pivot bearings do not perform continuous full rotations like wheel bearings. They operate through small-angle, slow movements, making the MAX design the ideal solution for these applications. The increased ball count distributes loads more evenly, providing higher strength, longer service life, and improved resistance to heavy loads compared to traditional caged bearings.
