bearing sizes?

anyone know how to tell how big or what size a bearing is?
for example: some tamiya plastic bearings are like 5x11. anyone know how to tell the numbers and what makes them 5x11?
thanks.

Calipers

Sometimes they are listed in the manual

sizes are listed in the following format:

ID x OD x thickness

so 5x11x4 would be 5mm ID x 11mm OD x 4mm thick.

the ID (internal Diameter) is often called bore on metric bearings.
