alrighty , i'll have to pick up some of that royal oil, 2 drops per bearing be enough? and will they be ok with no lube until then?

btw i got them from rainbowten, if they don't have the ones you need they will get them in for you.

because they are dry, does this meen i don't need to lube them?
thanks for your help
Although the Squat bearings aren't Ceremic or carbite, but they are the best bearings you can buy in the market! I use nothing but Squat bearings even if they don't have the full kits one. Each and every single bearing goes to microscopic QC and testing. All you really need is to lightly lube them, but sometimes I don't even lube them if they came in their pouch becuase they've prelubed them well enough and will last a very long time.

Congrats on owning the best bearings in the world!

My dads machine shop has the heavy duty cleaning tanks and i just drop them in there. I know integy makes one of these. Just get some 90 percent alch. from walgreens put it in the bin and put ur bearings in. Then let her shake for about an hour. Should be clean.

Break Free is often called a CLP. Cleaner, Lube Protectant (against corrosion). It is very common for guns and is often used by itself inplace of a solvent and sererate lube. You should be able to find it in any gun shop.

I use a cheap battery powered jewlery cleaner from Wal-Mart and fill it with motor spray and let it do its thing. Then I lube lightly with Trinity royal oil.
