A ball bearing is made up of an inner and outer race, balls, a retainer that keeps the balls in the correct distribution spacing, and 2 seals. Early on, metal will start to flake away from all metal components, but it's hard to imagine those tiny chips and flakes, and perhaps a chunk of flat rubbery seal clogging a filter the size of a Porsche filter cartridge.
