Recommendation? Lower cost contact wheel quality?

Geoff, you are saying your experience with Beaumont was good?

Kevin, why did you order the bearings separate from wheel? For $5 extra I had them to install the bearings.

I'm saying Beaumont is quite possibly the worst to deal with company I've ever encountered. I'd sooner make all my knives with a file than ever buy something from them again
 
Do yourself a favor and go right to the source. https://lpaladin.aliexpress.com/store/715198 I would not be suprised if Ameribrade gets theres here, since thy state they are not American made. i have a 6 inch and 12 inch smooth, they are awesome. just have them bore it for their 6202 bearings but DON'T have them installed. then get yourself some 6202-1/2" bearings (do a web search, they are easy to find) and you can use a 1/2" axle bolt. Good luck.

Quick question... Do I need the sealed or shielded bearings? I assume sealed?

There are two designations on the site (https://www.thebigbearingstore.com/6202-2rs-1-2-radial-ball-bearing-1-2-bore/) that you linked, 2RS and ZZ. Which one is which?

Thanks again,

Lee
