This bearing is not shielded, but it has the right dimensions. I can't remember for sure, but I think this bearing is pretty well protected in the gear housing, so I don't think the shielding should be much of an issue. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong about that.
I would not risk using an unshielded bearing. If this game is even half as bad as 2014 your steel gears will have a ton of wear by the end of the season, that leads to steel powder in the gearbox, i have no idea what the poweder would due to an open bearing but i would suggest we not find oit. I know that vex has bearings with a 3/8 ID that are shielded that I believe would fit.
