    Question bearing ID ?

    Any way to tell if bearings are ceramic ??
    I have several Shimano's-- mostly older models..
    Lew's mostly newer..
    Daiwa's some old and newer..

    I'm already replacing bearings in my Quantum's.. But may just clean the high end reel's with ceramic--- if I know how to ID..
    Would like to replace all--- but with 20 reels that gets $$$$$$$$ Especially the ones with 4-6 main bearings.

    Thanks Mike.

    Boca orange seals are amazing! Spool spins for like a minute. I have all Lews so only need 3 per reel. Trey at TH reel tuning, board sponsor, will help you out!

    No reel has 4-6 spool bearings..
    all those reels you mentioned are either 2 or 3 spool bearings...
