Metal Shielded bearings can be suitable for cleaner running conditions and lower drag applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy upgrade these bearings?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Traxxas Nitro Slash replacement bearing is built for owners who want a smoother, more durable RC drivetrain without guessing bearing sizes. Replacing tired stock bearings, worn bushings or gritty drivetrain bearings helps reduce drag, limit heat build-up and protect shafts, hubs, differentials and transmission parts from unnecessary wear. Choose rubber sealed bearings, also known as 2RS bearings, for dirty conditions, wet grass, loose dust and general bashing where extra seal protection matters. Choose metal shielded bearings, also known as ZZ bearings, for cleaner running conditions where low drag and free drivetrain feel are the priority. These replacement RC bearings are suitable for Slash bashing, club racing, routine servicing and rebuilds after high-speed impacts. For Maxx Slash models, check the exact product title and bearing size table before ordering so the kit matches your specific version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePack contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x 5x8x2.5 RC bearing (OEM\/ref: 5114A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTotal number of bearings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e1\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle: Traxxas Nitro Slash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed model\/version data: Nitro Slash 3.3 2WD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed application areas: 1 at steering and support positions, steering and support positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfirm the size against your manual or removed bearing before installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOEM reference guides\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse these OEM\/reference pages to compare compatible models, bearing locations, direct replacement bearings and kits that include the same reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/pages\/traxxas-5114a-bearing-reference\"\u003eTraxxas 5114A bearing reference guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBearing size chart\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/pages\/traxxas-nitro-slash-bearing-list\"\u003eTraxxas Nitro Slash bearing size chart\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eComplete the bearing set\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is part of the Traxxas Nitro Slash bearing set.
