a little help with bearing size i posted in penn but no answers

[ChasingTales]

Can some one tell me the size bearings for the 650ssm and on the battle 500 I would like to replace all the bearings with sealed ceramic bearings. The 650 has 5 bearings schematic number 20A=2 number 20=1 and number 35A=2 and the battle has 6 schematic number 20=4 number 20D=1 and 35A=1. Thank for the help

Hi. While I myself cannot help out, for about 14.99, you can help yourself. Just buy an entry-level digital calliper. If that's out of the question, then you can use a little stainless steel metric ruler.

 

It's doubtful that the bearings will be inch, but if they are, you can use a small stainless inch ruler.

The calliper will be in both metric and inch with the flick of a switch.

Thanks I don't have the reels with me at work that's why I am asking thought some one would know so I could order it now.

Try Boca Bearings as they have a catalog for a buck as well as good customer service. Ask them and see what they can tell you. Good luck!

Boca is a no go they aren't sure on the size but I already miced the bearings and put in the order

And: are the sizes a secret? How about you put them here, to help out the next chap.

Penn has a 1-800 number and an on-line chat. You can probably find any information you need there

Great! Would that be with Boca? If enough folks buy Boca Bearings I win a trip to Hawaii, oh wait I already live here LMAO. Best of luck in your search and don't forget to share your info my friend.

Hmmm....that's going to go well.... maybe like this ? HI !! I'm in Canada, and want you to tell me the brg sizes, so I can shop at a dealer that stocks them for 1/8th your price.

I heard that you sell the big bearing under the crank in a 345* for about 18.00, and I can buy them in Britain for 1.75 and stamps, but I have to tell them the size.

What's that you say? You don't feel that you should provide such info? Oh, OK. Thanks. 'click'.....:)

 

Actually, its an R1412 and the UK price is 1.56 UKP/2.50 CAD, and stamps.

Just curious ceramic bearings are expensive but fast why do you want to install them in the penn battle, I can understand ceramics in a conventional for casting off the beach but why in a spinner ?? Oh and if you have the time you can send boca the bearing and they will measure it for you, thank you.

just buy a dial caliber the are  less than 6 beans at harbour freight tools.measure inside/outside/thickness in that order.
