BFS bearing 4x7x2.5 (Shimano knob size)
I am looking for a BFS bearing in the size 4x7x2.5 for a spool. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

What spool is it? I’m unaware of a reel that takes that size bearing for a spool.

If Im not mistaken, that should be a 3x7x3 bearing. I see where HH Studio shows a 740ZZ, but I feel certainly that is a typo.ccass wrote:Avail Aldebaran BFS XG 1615r (new shallow spool)PikeRoadBassn wrote:What spool is it? I’m unaware of a reel that takes that size bearing for a spool.
If it is indeed a 3x7x3, we have the HH Air in stock here at The Tackle Trap.

Re: BFS bearing 4x7x2.5 (Shimano knob size)
The ID needs to be bigger. I tried a 3x7x3 and it would not fit. The Hedgehog site says the spool takes a 7x4x2.5 (typo). I can see if a knob bearing fits to verify the size. The shaft where the bearing goes is definitely bigger than the stock or KTF spool.PikeRoadBassn wrote:If Im not mistaken, that should be a 3x7x3 bearing.

Please keep me informed on that. I have not yet seen one of these spools, so saying for certain truly is hard. If in fact it is a 4x7x2.5, then ZPI does make a handle knob bearing, and it *should* perform well on it.

That is the size. I was hoping for a BFS bearing.

Is the an Air BFS bearing that the bearing itself, not counting the housing? If so, I'd just order the 1 bearing and then take the housing off and plug it into my spoolPikeRoadBassn wrote:ccass wrote:The ID needs to be bigger. I tried a 3x7x3 and it would not fit.

BFS bearing as in one with a housing/collar?

Yeah. Or really any bearing more capable than the stock bearing.y2k88 wrote:BFS bearing as in one with a housing/collar?
