Fishing Reel Bearing Kits to suit Shimano Saragosa 8000SW / 10000SW Fishing Reels. These Reels have 5 Ball Bearings with the additional option of Line Roller Bearings. You can select either the Complete kit or the Line Roller bearings. To Purchase from this listing, Select Bearing type either Stainless Steel or Ceramic Hybrid, then select which kit you require.

Please note: Our Ceramic Fishing Reel Bearings are supplied without lubricant, allowing you to choose your preferred oil. We offer fishing reel bearing oil ideal for ceramic bearings, as well as a range of greases for fishing reels:

• Fishing Reel Bearing Oil For bearings and reel components, Main shaft through pinion gear and all pivot/rotating points on a reel.
• Barrier Grease For sealing reel frames, O-rings, and surfaces to prevent water contact and corrosion.
• Light Sticky Grease For Main/Pinion gears on finesse/light spinning reels, baitcasters, and jigging reels.
• Heavy Sticky Grease For Main/Pinion gears on medium/large spin, overhead, and game reels.

Stainless Steel Bearings: Manufactured to ABEC 7 specifications. Designed for corrosion resistance with Stainless Steel Balls, Stainless Steel Retainer/Cage, and Contactless Metal Shields.

Ceramic Hybrid Bearings: Manufactured to ABEC 7 specifications. Built for corrosion resistance with Si3N4 Ceramic Balls, Stainless Steel Retainer/Cage and Rubber Seals.

Bearing Materials

• 440 Grade Stainless Steel Balls
  • Excellent corrosion resistance to water, saltwater, and many chemicals
  • Suitable for temperatures up to 500°C and cryogenic applications down to -250°C
  • Perfect for seawater, salt spray, and some acids/alkalis.
• Silicon Nitride Ceramic Balls (Si3N4)
  • Very good corrosion resistance to water, salt, and chemicals
  • High-temperature performance up to 1,000°C
  • Non-magnetic, electrically insulated, and lighter than steel balls
  • Low heat expansion reduces contraction/expansion during temperature changes
  • Ceramic bearings run 30-40% faster than steel bearings with proper lubrication, offering enhanced durability and reliability.
• PTFE Heat Resistant Rubber Seals
  • Excellent corrosion resistance and performance up to 260°C
  • Provides effective sealing against dust and moisture while retaining lubricant.
• Contactless Metal Shields
  • Prevents larger particles from entering and retains grease
  • Allows higher RPMs without increasing torque.
• Bearing Retainer/Cage
  • Stainless Steel Crown Retainer ensures even ball spacing, higher speeds, and grease retention.
