Default bearings: different grades & qualities


"tg" wrote in message

I have to replace some bearings in a generator I have. I discovered they
are a common size - 6302-2RSH. What I want to know is, do bearings come in
different grades or qualities? Or are they all the same? I want to replace
these bearings with the best I can get. Thanks for any pointers.

I believe that bearings from a _reliable source_ are generally of good
similar quality.
Your question reminds me of some interesting info (if memory allows). A
certain British army tank had to rely on a source of Russian bearings, as
they were not available anywhere else, at short notice.
I think that the "cold war" was still on.
