Just dug out my trusty Carry Freedom Y frame trailer and the bearings are seized up. I've managed to get on out of the wheel and can see the code "6001zz" on one side and ISK on the other.

Googling the code seems to bring up a few bearing places but they all seem a bit pricey, can anyone recommend good places to order these bearings, and recommend a type? I'm not sure if I need stainless steel or if cheaper ones will work okay.

ZZ bearings just have a metal shield, so aren't great on a bike/trailer that's getting wet.

These are much better

Thanks Fossy, I assumed the code was just related to size but that makes sense, probably why they rusted up anyway.
