levinmiester Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 So, I'm sick of constantly buying replacement ball bearings, so I just want to buy like a 100 pack of stianless steel ones...Problem is, I don't know what size they are..Any ideas how big hookah ball bearings measure?

DizzyGuy Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Airsoft pellets work for me... but I guess here's the thing, I've noticed a few different sizes... so if you want to buy a large pack... get the size of ball bearing that you want, and go to a sporting goods store *or wal-mart*... pick up a pack of BBs. I think you can get them in a few diff sizes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macho555 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 The size thing is a pain in the ass. I bought one of those ball bearing packs from SS, to replace my rusty bearing, and neither one of them worked. I finally went to Home Depot, and found the one I needed. Probably is what I should have done to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizzyGuy Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Even is my QT which has a larger ball bearing than my other hookahs *go figure*, the airsoft pellets still work even being noticibly smaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerodynamic Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 well guys, I work in a hardware store, so if you can give me some sizing, I can order them in bulk and I'll give them to you at my discount, all I ask if you pay for shipping.

NorthEastSmoker Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Yeah, to add on to Mush's post.. AutoZone (for those in the states) has a great auto tool rental program.. and I bet if you went in and were nice enough, they'd whip out measuring tool and get you the exact diameter of the BB for your hookah right there at the counter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
