BK is Fixed end and consists of of 2 angular contact bearings held and preloaded within the housing. The photo shows all sizes depending on end machining and screw diameter. IE: Bk12 being used for 16mm screws Bk15 20mm etc.

BF is the floating end and just uses normal bearing which floats within the housing and is held onto the ballscrew with a Circlip.

Well it's knock off then because should have 2 x AC bearings which go back to back. It used to be common on the really cheap ones that the bearings where in the wrong way around so didn't work correctly allowing slop but still used AC bearings. Never seen one with skate board bearings before.!

After many emails i got given 6 angular contact bearings, hopefully this is a lesson for everyone to ask what bearings are fitted !!!
