What is the Dif-e-yo KonKave bearing made of? I think mine just rusted as a result of running it dry. 😢

Regular ones are stainless steel but there are ceramic ones too. Neither should rust though.

No they are just like stock YYJ bearings. The only thing different is the thickness of the outer race. It gave Frank room to grinddd the KK in them.
