Light load bearing selection

[vtmike]

Hello,

I am looking for a light load, low breakaway friction roller bearing. In my search I came across jewel bearings (Ruby, Saphire) but they are too expensive. I have noticed that manufacturers do not list the breakaway friction and no other criteria that relates to the rolling friction. Any suggestions for bearings with low breakaway friction values?

Thanks,
Mike

You didn't give very much information so I'll make SWAG and point our two suppliers of ,miniature bearings, Boca and Dynaroll. Dynaroll has some information on torque on their site and probably would have more if you purchased a bearing from them.
