Brand new BE bearings/ bolts quality check
Just got the items from the title delivered. They arrived in generic - looking packaging, which might normal(?), but, also, all the bearings have visible wear marks on the inner diameter, which has me concerned.
Is that normal? |

Run the edge of your nail on it, if you can feel a noticeable difference in the surface reject it. If not it’s fine rod bearing shells have markings on the surface from production.

This^^^ that's what your paying for.. see how they're even sorted upper and lower.. cuz someone took time after they were manufactured to measure them and match you a set..

Thanks for the input. Apparently, that's normal. Here is the reply from BE Bearings:
"Every single shell should have such marks because we measure and bin every single shell. Unless they penetrate to the next layer, this is normal." |

I literally was making this exact thread on Monday when i received my BE bearings. Right before i posted i called my vendor because every single shell was marked like that. I figured it was a quality control technique but i needed to make sure. 1st guy i spoke with didnt know anything about that so my heart sank. After he called a coworker over it was explained that its from being measured at the manufacture and not to worry. You are good to go!
