NEq6 Pro belt drive upgrade

Hi there

I was wondering if ABEC7 skating bearings in place of SKF 608 for the worm gear screw
are good substitute?

Cheers

They are both deep groove ball bearings, be careful using bearings which have a rubber dust shield. Some of these dust seals are usually tighter to rotate than a metal cage shield. This could put more load on the drive and create issues. Personally I would use the SKF bearing as the skate board bearings are modified for a specific use. This is of course just an opinion, I do not think there is a perfect yes or no answer for this question.
