Interesting data, thanks for sharing. If you poke around 9motogang’s youtube channel, there is a somewhat similar friction test you might find interesting.

I was a bit confused by “anti-friction high strength bearing”

At the vex store they are referred to as High Strength Shaft Ball Bearing (11-Pack) - VEX Robotics

Thank you. It was the 9motorgang’s video that inspired me to do this test. Probably should have listed a few part numbers and a few other things, but wanted to get something posted.
