Great for use with flush trim bits

I paired these bearings with a set of flush trim bits so that I could route smaller and larger patterns when using a template. This worked very well, and the bearings will provide a smooth cut along the template or edge of materials. The set also comes with four replacement allen screws just in case you drop one and can't find it.

Pros
  • Buy it if you need it. Worked well for me.
Cons
  • Bearing came apart with in 39 seconds of first use, can trust others in set.

Excellent replacement parts

I like the fact that they are available and less expensive than most other brands and they seem to last longer also. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • It was a perfect fit for my router bits.
Cons
  • The added weight of the ball bearings may make the router bit difficult to control

Expand the use of your existing router bits

This set of Wolfride Rabbet Router Bit Bearings worked perfectly for us. The set allowed us to utilize several of our previous owned standard router bits in more effective and efficient ways which ends up saving money from purchasing more single use bits.

Pros
  • Item was as listed
Cons
  • The ball bearings may cause the router bit to overheat, damaging both the bit and the material being worked on

Problem free best in my review

These perform well enough for me. I use them for routing binding channel for guitars where even little mistakes are not acceptable. They work in that situation just fine.

Pros
  • Bearing works great but tread of screws don't work for my router bits.
Cons
  • Don't fit any of my 1/4 router bits probably my fault by not reading enough or taking out my callipers.

Makes an awesome mower blade balancer

I use this clamped in my vice as a blade balancer. Works to perfection! Compared to the clumsy cone-style balance there IS no comparison. My mower blades are now genuinely balanced and my mower feels like it now. Well worth the money

Pros
  • Purchased these to use as a balancing point for lawn mower blades. Seems to work fine so far.
Cons
  • Don't buy if your are looking at good bearings without play ...
