Bearing Enduro Bearings S6806 LLB Stainless Steel

S6806 LLB stainless-steel bottom bracket bearing, 30mm x 42mm x 7mm.

The bearing races and balls are made of 440C stainless steel alloy and have a 90% fill. High-pressure, waterproof grease provides high corrosion resistance.

Not all stainless steel is created equal. Enduro uses only 440C stainless steel balls and races for long life and corrosion resistance in demanding conditions. Among standard 440-series stainless alloys, 440C has the highest strength, hardness and wear resistance, and a high carbon content. It is also the most expensive alloy in the 440 series and requires multiple rounds of heat treatment and cryogenic treatment to achieve its superior mechanical properties. Stainless steel has 20% less load capacity and is slightly softer than the standard 52100 chromium steel used in most Enduro bearings. However, stainless steel is an excellent alternative for wet conditions, frequent bike washing or situations where sweat may be a problem.

All Enduro stainless steel bearings carry a full 2-year anti-corrosion warranty.

This bearing is most commonly used as a direct replacement for BB30, PF30, B386 and most other bottom brackets with a 30mm OD spindle.

The Enduro bearing range includes high-carbon chromium steel, 440C stainless steel, ceramic-hybrid bearings and XD-15 with ceramic or stainless steel balls. The bearings are engineered with the deepest possible groove races to accommodate the largest balls. Dual-lip seals ride in a micro-groove, creating a full labyrinth for protection against the elements.
