Does anyone find it really hard to deshield a 10-ball bearing? I can deshield a AIRG, a YYF, and a YYJ bearing, all without too much trouble. But this 10-ball one I have just is not coming out. Anyone else experience this or have tips? The needle I have is now bent at a 90 degree angle from trying so much. \>.\>

I think it’s because the ends of the c clip are flat instead of beveled.

10 Balls, AIGR’s, and SPECs are a breeze. KKs are the ones that make me mad
