Also, the price is slightly lower than others.
So the question is, does anyone have any information or experience with this bearing? I believe the seller claims zero failures although I'm not sure how long ago that claim was made.
Anyway, please have a look and let me know what you guys know and think about this bearing.

First time I've heard of this bearing also. Their technical documentation is impressive. I'm not sure that I agree the lack of lubrication plays no role in failures... given that the last 2 IMSBs that I looked at were almost dry. I would consider this bearing, but, for me, replacing the original bearing with a new NSK (with the outer seal removed) is still best when cost is taken into consideration.
