Nachi website has an app for scanning there barcodes. Evidently china is selling replicas as authentic and you can not tell the difference. Places like eBay and Amazon need to do more to vet there sellers. I take responsibility for not fully reading in this situation. All the more reason to not buy china crap when you have a choice.
Post number four, bro.
I'm in the electronical doodads industry. Chinese counterfeit BS is like a wildfire.
Its part of there culture. I hate it but its here to stay I'm afraid. Just have to buy from a reputable dealer and fork up the money.
There’s a assembly hole on both inner and outer races on some bearings. It doesn’t matter who makes them. Not all ball bearings have theses cut outs. They get installed with the cutouts opposite the horizontal thrust forces.
I heard it’s best to put one in one way and one the other. That way it doesn’t matter if you put your chain on backwards
Funny it's not mentioned on the bearing anywhere that it's supposed to go in one direction...
Thrust forces not direction of rotation. Gotcha.
Anyone got a pic of these holes and directions?!
So holes can be orientated vertically up or down? What is the hole for?
I install them with the numbers facing out.. Just cuz.
Seals too, if possible.
I imagine they are making seals and selling them as authentic also. At some point it is a safety issue.
Absolutely the Chinese are making counterfeit seals. I meant I try to put the seal numbers outside too, so the next poor schmuck working on whatever it happens to be can see what the seal is without removing it.
I try to make life better for the next guy, because the next guy is me. If not literally, then in a "what goes around comes around" kind of way.

Don’t forget to pre lube the seal lips. When the crankcase is assembled with no cylinder on yet I run oil down both sides of the crank pork chops to pre lube the bearings. Then the piston gets moly on the skirt with moly burnished into the cylinder walls then a little oil during assembly.
