Fail Safe Bearings
Because of the built-in halyard, our rugged bearings see only a fraction of the load carried by other systems. Smaller Flexible Furlers typically use a one-piece solid plastic bearing, though some sailors prefer ball bearings as a convenience option (like having power steering in a small car).
The FF7.0 and 9.0 come with ball bearings standard. We use 1/2" Torlon balls which roll over dirt easier and need less maintenance than the 1/4" balls you find in less rugged systems.
