This guy mostly ranting personal opinion..
His request for ceramic speed to do testing also "under review"
Im not gonna say who is right/who is wrong though...
Btw thanks for sharing this article, ZFC says they want to stock up the NTN Bearings but they are having trouble sourcing up these bearings - maybe i should contact them to supply the bearings for them
The way I see it, it's less about the bearing type, but most critical are the bearing tolerances. and tolerance issues is the cause of wear in the first place, especially when there's hard impacts.His request for ceramic speed to do testing also "under review"

Steel bearing will probably wear better, as under high impact, they just dent, but ceramic may crack. and when the first crack happens, what you get are small ceramic pieces floating around grinding against other ceramic bearings, which will eventually lead to the entire thing grinding down to dust (or rather, paste when combined with the grease inside)
