Version: 8 pieces. Low-friction interchangeable sliding bearings for foosball tables. The bearings are made in Germany from high-quality, recycled plastic. Color: Anthracite. The Sportime interchangeable sliding bearing Guardian 2022 was developed by Sportime. The 3-part bearing consists of 2 different parts: 1x locking ring: The locking ring is made of hard plastic and is particularly stable and grippy, allowing the bearing to be installed and removed without tools. The ring fits securely on the threads of the two bearing halves and holds them together. 2x sliding bearing halves: The package always includes 2 sliding bearing halves. The special feature is that both halves are identical. Most interchangeable bearings consist of 2 different halves, one for the top and one for the bottom. The Sportime interchangeable bearing has the advantage that you do not have to search for the halves, as all halves are the same. The ring cannot spin on the bearings; the thread is extremely robust, and the ring fits perfectly into it. Advantages of foosball interchangeable bearings: The advantage of interchangeable bearings over conventional sliding bearings is that they can be removed without having to disassemble the rods. You can remove the bearings and then take the foosball rods with the figures out of the table. This allows foosball tables to be quickly made smaller, stored, and transported. Without mounted rods, foosball tables can be easily carried through doors, for example. It is also ideal for foosball table maintenance to be able to easily open the sliding bearings: This allows the bearings to be cleaned or figures and buffers to be quickly swapped from the rods. Compatibility: The Sportime Guardian interchangeable bearings fit the Sportime foosball tables Hurricane and Match as well as the Sportime tournament table Dragon.
