How to make the spinner spin faster? Spinner - what is it and how to make a spinner at home? How to make the spinner spin better.

To argue that spinners have become the most popular toy of this year will only be stupid. Every month, tens of millions of spinners are sold in the world, and you can buy them everywhere: in stores, markets and underground passages, not to mention the Internet. Previously, the game portal Game2Day told, and you can do with them. However, the cycle of materials has generated even more questions among our readers. In particular, people are interested in how to care for spinners and what is the difference between metal bearings that provide rotation. In this short article, we will try to answer two popular questions.

How to care for a spinner?

Spinner, like any other thing, requires some care. Despite the fact that in the event of a breakdown, the cost of a toy allows you to simply throw it away and buy a new one, for some people, this approach may seem wild and unacceptable.

In a traditional spinner, only the center box with the bearing can break. Over time, dirt, dust and sand penetrate into it - because of this, the balls begin to rattle and rustle, and the speed and duration of rotation of the blades decrease. The first thing you can do to bring the toy back to life is to tap the spinner on your palm well, and then spin it strongly in different directions. In this case, the debris will peel off the walls and will hang out inside. Next, simply remove the lid (it can either be twisted or removed) and shake out all the debris from the inside.

To make the spinner last longer, it is advisable to clean the bearings regularly - at least once every few weeks. To do this, just remove the cover and lightly walk along the bearing and the walls of the box with a soft toothbrush. After that, spin the spinner, shake out the debris and lubricate the bearings. Toy owners use various lubricants for this, including automotive and bicycle lubricants. In principle, WD-40 will also work well for this purpose.

After the toy is lubricated, remove the excess and spin the blades again - this will allow the lubricant to be evenly distributed over the bearing. We close the lid and immediately feel the difference.

Another situation in which the spinner began to turn badly is the bearing has worn out. If you are facing this problem, then you are a very active user. In this case, lubrication and cleaning of the mechanism is unlikely to give a lasting effect - it is easier to replace the bearing with a new one or immediately buy a new spinner.

What is the difference between bearings in spinners

The most commonly used bearings in spinners are 608 and rR88. If you want the toy to spin as long as possible, then you should give preference to models with R188 bearings. It is important to remember here that for continuous rotation, the bearing must be small and the housing heavy. The R188 bearing has a diameter of 12.7 mm, while the 608 has a diameter of 22 mm.

Most often, manufacturers make spinners compact and a large bearing takes up a lot of space in them. Because of this, the case becomes lighter, which means that the toy does not spin for so long. Also in the 608 bearing, the balls are further from the center of the support - because of this, the friction resistance is less, and the speed is lower. If you compare two spinners with identical bodies, the R188 version will spin longer.

At the same time, if stability and smoothness are more important for you than the duration of rotation, the model with the 608 bearing should be preferred. The small balls in the R188 bearing increase rolling and reduce stability. In addition, a spinner with 608 bearings costs less and is easier to lubricate and clean.

How to replace the bearing in the spinner?

As a rule, there are no problems with replacing the bearing in the spinner - with a little effort it is squeezed out, after which you can insert a new one into the center or even put it on glue. The only thing is that it is important to correctly determine the model of the mechanism, so as not to miscalculate the diameter of the hole and bearing.

If you decide to replace the 608 bearing with R188, then you will need a special ring nozzle that will increase the size of the walls of the mechanism. Often it comes with a bearing or it can be purchased separately on the Internet, for example, on AliExpress.

Every owner of a spinner has encountered such a problem at least once - the toy suddenly starts spinning badly. And the logical question arises - why?

The main causes of problems with the rotation of the spinner

There are many factors that can slow down spinner rotation. However, 99% of the problems are related to the bearing.

The main and most common problem is the contamination of the spinner bearing with debris.
If the bearing is not dirty, then it is damaged ( this usually happens after it falls, do not twist it too hard, otherwise it will fly out of your hands) or oxidized.
The bearing is very heavily lubricated (thick layer). Over time, the grease becomes thicker and interferes with the normal rotation of the spinner.
The bearing flew out or simply fell out of the bed and therefore the spinner does not spin

To make the spinner spin longer, remove all grease from the bearing.

How to fix a spinner if it has become badly spinning

The algorithm of actions related to the repair of the spinner primarily depends on the cause of the breakdown. The full implementation of this algorithm will also help to increase the duration of spinner rotation.

If the bearing flew out or fell out:

It is necessary to check the integrity of the plastic or metal parts of the spinner that are not related to the bearing
Check bearing for damage
Gently press on the center of the bearing and put it in place.
If the bearing is completely damaged, a new one should be purchased and replaced.

Bearing contamination:

With a heavily soiled bearing, the spinner spins very poorly, so you will need cleaning products. Something that can dissolve fat in itself, since the grease that is used in the turntable is very greasy.

The basis of the solvent can be anything. Acetone or even a fluid that flushes car brakes.

Isopropyl alcohol is the ideal solution for removing grease.

Handle solvents with care, they may damage plastic base and spinner paint.

If possible, it is better to remove the bearing from the base of the spinner, even if it is metal. This will allow for more efficient cleaning.

The bearing may have protection - anther. It comes off with a screwdriver.
Clean the bearing with solvent, kerosene or soapy water.
Leave it in the solution for 10-15 minutes. Then wipe gently with a cloth.
Rinse well with water for 1-2 minutes.
After all dirt and grease has been removed, the bearing must be allowed to dry.
If you do not want to wait, then use a hair dryer to speed up drying. The drying process will go faster and after 3-4 minutes the bearing will be completely dry.
If you want the spinner to spin faster, then you can not lubricate it. With lubrication, it will work quieter and smoother.
Next, simply insert the bearing back into the turntable socket.

Detailed video on cleaning bearings:

After such cleaning, the spinner will not only spin better and last longer, but its service life will also increase. Despite the fact that the toy has a fairly simple structure, it still requires correct operation And preventive measures. Therefore, it is advisable to clean the spinner once every two months.

What do we have to do?

Care is not difficult and does not require much time. It is enough to wash the central bearing once every 1-3 months. To do this, you can take a small container into which pour a degreaser and dip the bearing and shake it a little for a minute. After pulling out and unwinding, then dip again. After such cleaning, the bearing must be put on a napkin, allow the liquid to evaporate.

What liquid is suitable for this?

1. Degreaser is the best option, as it does not emit a strong odor.
2. Gasoline - great, but has a characteristic smell, so it's best to use it outdoors.
3. Kerosene - great for cleaning spinners, but also has an unpleasant odor.

Each of these fluids can be purchased at any hardware store.

1. WD-40. This product contains white spirit and mineral oil. After washing with it, the bearing becomes quiet and smooth, but at the same time, the torsion time is reduced to an unpleasant minimum.
2. Solvent. As with WD-40, the solvent may contain oils that will only lubricate the bearing while shortening its turnaround time.
3. Water or soapy water. Good way, but if the bearing is made of steel, then it will instantly rust, which will completely “kill” the bearing.

Why not lubricate a bearing?

In classical use, the bearing is subjected to (friction, heat). Therefore, to maintain durability, it is lubricated. But in a spinner, first of all, free sliding is important, for example, even under the influence of wind. Lubrication will negatively affect this capability.

Imagine a sheet of paper lying on a table, if you blow on it, the sheet will fly up, but if you drop a little lubricant on its surface, it will stick. The situation with the spinner is similar. But, if you still lubricate the bearing, it will spin very quietly and extremely slowly.

Like any thing, the turntable requires care in order to serve and delight the owner for a long time. Sooner or later, any owner of a spinner will have to disassemble it and climb into the insides, you need to be prepared for this.

In fact, there may be several reasons:

change bearing. Replace marriage, or for example, I wanted to put a cooler bearing.
Lubricate the bearing. The lubricant tends to dry out over time, because of this, the toy makes more noise and vibrates more strongly. However, be careful - excess lubrication will also negatively affect the rotation characteristics!
Clean the bearing and spinner parts from dust and debris. Again, a dirty turntable will spin worse and make noise.
Just out of curiosity.

How to disassemble and clean the turntable

A warning! If the spinner spins well and feels great, then once again it’s better not to climb inside, you can only make it worse if you use the wrong cleaning agent or go too far with lubricant from your ass. Special talents manage to break the hull during disassembly.

How to disassemble a metal and plastic spinner

Remove cap from bearing. It can be threaded and unscrewed, or it can be removed upwards, depending on the model.
Remove the bearing, if possible. Sometimes they are glued to the body or put on a sealant, then you should not tear it off. If suddenly accidentally torn off, then glue it back on superglue.
Carefully remove the anthers on the bearing itself, if any. This can be done by prying it with a screwdriver or other thin object.

Congratulations, you dismantled the spinner! It remains only to clean it and put it back together.

The difference between disassembling a plastic and metal spinner is that the plastic one may not be completely disassembled, and when cleaning, you need to be careful both with the chemistry and with the applied efforts so as not to accidentally break the case.

If you are the owner of a glowing spinner, then disassembly may include removing batteries and LEDs, it all depends on the model.

How to clean a spinner

We need a cleaning agent - isopropyl alcohol, or special. car brake cleaners. In extreme cases, acetone, kerosene or a solvent, but in no case do not lubricate the plastic spinner with them, the case may be damaged by contact!

There are conflicting opinions about WD-40. Some say that after they cleaned the WD-40 spinner, it began to spin 30-40 seconds longer, others argue that, on the contrary, the rotation time was halved. The fact is that VDshka leaves lubricants on the surface of the balls, albeit for a short time, unlike conventional lubrication, so the rotation speed may decrease at first.

Washing. We thoroughly pour the bearing with a cleaning agent, rotate it to wash out all the debris and grease. You can even wash it with fairies under some water.
Drying. You can use a napkin or a soft clean cloth, but it is better to dry it with a hair dryer so as not to leave lint and new debris. Definitely dry!
Lubricant. Lubricate with a drop of synthetic oil from a syringe, best suitable oil for sewing machines or clockwork. Do not use vegetable or thick machine!

How to lubricate the spinner so that it spins longer?

There is such a moment - with lubrication, the spinner cracks and vibrates less, but the speed, as well as the duration of rotation, decreases. Therefore, if you want the spinner to spin smoothly, then smear it. If you want the spinner to spin longer, then you should not lubricate, just rinse, or just drip a little oil.

However, without lubrication, the life of the bearing will decrease, it will become more afraid of water and condensate.

A visual video on how to flush the spinner and increase the rotation speed:

How to assemble a disassembled spinner

Actually, we act according to the same scheme as we disassembled, only in reverse order. The spinner is quite simple in its design, it is difficult to get confused with the assembly.

We assemble the bearing from the spinner - we put on the boot, insert it into place.
Close with a cap.
We rejoice at the revived spinner, which spins longer and quieter.

Or we are sad about the killed turntable, which after the procedures rotates 2 times less 🙂 It already depends on your hands and brains.

But do not worry too much, in most cases this is fixable, maybe you just overdid it with lubrication, or during cleaning you threw more garbage than before. Try repeating the procedure, but use a different cleaning agent and try not to bring dirt inside.

Spinner Description

Spinner can be seen in almost every tenth inhabitant of a big city. The point is that this is one of the best means to release the accumulated internal energy. In addition, it is often used to calm down after a hard day at work.

This toy consists of 3 parts:

Bearing- the main stock of the spinner. At its core, this is an ordinary metal ring, inside of which there are balls of a smaller diameter. It is thanks to this spare part that this mechanism rotates. The quality of this part significantly affects the speed of rotation.
Frame- this is the part that rotates around the bearing. It happens absolutely different shapes. Its appearance significantly affects the sensations from the promotion of the device;
Lid- an element that is screwed into the bearing for ease of use. Without it, it is difficult to rotate the spinner.

This "toy" works according to a simple scheme. It is enough just to hold it between the thumb and middle fingers, and unwind it with the middle finger of the other hand. It can rotate from 1 to 10 minutes.
The most important parameter for lovers of this device is the rotation speed.

What can I do to make the spinner spin longer?
The answer is simple: you need to buy a high-quality bearing and replace it. It is best to immediately buy an expensive spinner that will be created for high-speed spinning.

Types of spinners

There are many different spinners. They differ in case design. Consider the most popular of them:

Single- the most popular option of all presented. It is a small plate with a bearing inside. Widespread because of its compactness and convenience. They are the easiest to spin. A good option for beginners in the spin world.
Three-spinner- at its core, this is a miniature "shuriken" with a metal weighting agent for rotation inside. Also, its design resembles a three-leaf clover to many. The beauty of this mechanism is that bearings are mounted on each petal. This is done to maintain balance while spinning and increase speed. Made from the most different materials ranging from metal to wood and leather.
Quad spinner- this is already a “four-leaf clover” with a bearing. In terms of design, the brightest and most colorful. For some reason, decorators are trying to make them “the most beautiful”.
Exclusive- these include all spinners that have an unusual and individual design. They are not always convenient, but most interesting for hardcore players (real fans of these things).
Wheel- consists of a bearing and a wheel that rotates around it. An interesting device, however, there is no “wow” effect when used. That is why only the most sophisticated people use it.

How to choose a spinner?

First of all, when choosing a spinner, it is worth starting from personal preferences. Essential element The thing to consider is the design. He must like you personally. Choose the one that fits best in your hand.
You can spin the spinner right at the time of purchase to evaluate the second and third essential factors - speed and vibration. As mentioned earlier, many people want the spinner to be faster than lightning. However, not everyone likes it. The fact is - the greater the speed, the stronger the return, that is, the vibration. Many people like the pleasant feeling in their hands. If so, then take a metal spinner, you will not lose.

If vibration and high speed are not your thing, then get a spinner with a plastic case.

spinner tricks

simple helicopter

This trick is basic. In fact, having mastered it, there will be no problems with others. It consists in getting toys and throwing them from one hand to the other. Important point: during the “flight” it should not “stall”.
This is done in a simple way:

Spin the spinner in one hand for about 5-10 seconds.
Throw it to your other hand and grab it. Rotation should not stop when grabbing.

Main FocusThis cool trick is that you need to intercept the spinner strictly in the middle with your thumb and forefinger.
It turns out that you need to grab a clean bearing. This is not as simple as it might seem at first glance. However, practice will put everything in its place.

Runway

This trick is a complicated variation of the first one. The following describes how to make a runway:

We launch the spinner from one hand to the other.
Let's catch him back side palms. You need to get exactly to its center so that the rotation does not stop.
After that, raise the palm up and catch the toy in the air with the thumb and middle fingers. Ideally, the rotation should not stop.

The main snag of this technique is that it is not easy not to stop the spinner in the palm of your hand. The main thing in this business is accuracy and skill. As they say, "patience and work will grind everything."

Throw from under the foot

This trick is no longer easy. It will take a long time to get used to it. It is done like this:

Launch the spinner in one of the hands index finger. Lower your hand gradually down, trying not to disturb the balance of rotation.
Throw the toy up while raising your leg. She must fly under it.
With the other hand, you need to grab the bearing so that it does not stop rotating.
You can do this method with both legs until the “engine stalls”.

It is difficult to master this feint for several reasons. First Trouble lowering the arm and maintaining balance. This will take a long time and hard to learn. Second- it is insanely difficult to grab the middle of the spinner, since the leg will be your obstacle.

So, are you ready to repeat the trick?

Spinner Tricks for Kids

According to a study conducted in 2015 by American scientists, a spinner is an excellent toy for children suffering from Attention Deficit Disorder. It improves concentration and develops fine motor skills of the fingers.
No wonder so many people buy these toys for their children. Naturally, they also want to do cool tricks with him.

Advice: start with the reception "helicopter". As mentioned earlier, this is the basis of all further tricks. Also, no one forbids performing the elements described earlier.

Take off into the air

This interesting trick will appeal to every young boy. To learn how to perform it, you will have to practice, but the effort will be worth the effort spent.

1. Spin the spinner in one hand with your middle finger.
2. Launch it into the air and catch it with the second hand.
3. Now we toss the toy with a sharp upward movement. You need to catch it with the same hand by the bearing so that the rotation does not stop.
4. You can throw up an infinite number of times until you get bored.

The catch with this trick is that you need to learn how to grab the mechanism by the middle so that it does not stop. It is also desirable that the rotation speed of your spinner be high so that you can throw it up at least a couple of times.

Dorsal flight

One of the most effective tricks is throwing behind your back. It is not easy to implement it. After all, the throw of the spinner will have to be carried out blindly.
Advice: throw the toy as far as possible so that it can come into your field of vision after a slight turn of the head. As soon as you see it, grab the piston with a sharp movement. If the "helicopter" is mastered to perfection, it will not be difficult.

Yula

This is a fairly simple trick. It is enough just to run the spinner not on your hand, but on a flat surface (on a table or floor). After that, you can watch the bewitching dance of an unusual toy for all ages.
These tricks can keep you and your kids busy for hours. So feel free to choose the perfect spinner and go ahead - conquer the world of “rotation”.

The main part that is responsible for the speed and duration of rotation of your toy is the bearing. Therefore, the state in which it is located is a very important aspect. How to make the spinner spin longer? The answer is simple - timely clean, lubricate, and sometimes change this spare part.

And how the spinner works, find out on our website.

Neat users may have a reasonable question - where they could get the toy dirty so that it began to rotate badly. The answer is simple - even at home, during use, the smallest particles of dust fly into the mechanism, which, no matter how you clean it, is still in any room. And this is not to mention the street where cars drive, plants bloom, and many other harmful factors occur. The turntable can also get dirty in a bag and in a pocket. So what can be done to make the spinner spin better if it gets dirty? Of course, it needs to be cleaned, and not only the body of the toy, but also the mechanism hidden in it. And here's how to do it.

The new trend of 2017 Hand Spinner managed to become a real bestseller in the world market, and has already reached the CIS countries. However, as it turned out, it is very difficult to find a really good and high-quality toy, as there is a big risk of stumbling upon a fake. Therefore, before approaching the conversation about how much the Fidget Spinner should spin, we will give a few recommendations on how to choose a quality fixture.

How to choose a quality spinner

Firstly, a good Spinner differs from a fake in that it has a very neat appearance. You can often see crooked asymmetric toys that you don’t even want to take in your hands.

Secondly, as experts note, metal Spinners are the most high-quality and reliable. Of course, no one says that plastic or wooden ones will quickly fail, but still, iron toy inspires more confidence.

Active rotation of the fidget spinner leads to breakdowns: a buzz appears, the speed and rotation time decrease. To correct these ailments, you will have to climb inside the turntable, and with detailed instructions how to disassemble the spinner, you can prepare in advance for repair.

Be careful! If the toy is working properly, do not take it apart again. Accidentally get dirt in, add too much lube, use the wrong cleaning compound, and fidget hand spinner performance will deteriorate. In an attempt to make the spinner faster, some simply break the case. Haste is contraindicated here.

When to disassemble the spinner

There are 3 reasons to look inside:

Remove accumulated dirt. Dust and debris clog the spinner bearing parts. The blades begin to spin more slowly, and the bearing itself wears out faster. Despite the presence of dust, the device needs periodic cleaning. How to clean the spinner and avoid damage, read on.

Why did the spinner stop quickly after lubrication?

If you oiled your spinner with oil and it stopped spinning as it should, then this instruction is for you.

It is better not to use liquid lubricants at all, they reduce both speed and rotation time.

The best option would be to simply wash under warm soapy water and dry with a hair dryer (if there is no gasoline). For the sake of experiment, I poured graphite from a pencil and got a very high speed and easy spinning with an average rotation time.

Lubricate or flush the middle bearing of the spinner by injecting lubricant under the button through the gap between the button and the bearing. To do this, you can use a syringe, for example.
Drop gasoline there (better than a lighter that smells less) or WD40.

Take care not to let debris get into the bearing. It is desirable to inject lubricant regularly, because moisture and condensate can get in.
After washing with gasoline or WD40, you can lubricate with a non-viscous liquid lubricant (for example, watch), but ...

Timely cleaning of the spinner and maintenance of the bearings allow the spinner to spin longer. Even lying in a pocket, the bearings collect dust and debris, which creates additional friction and slows down the rotation of the spinner. Cleaning a spinner at home is very simple and most likely you have everything you need. Therefore, let's proceed to the guide for cleaning the spinner.

How to clean bearings

The most important thing is to have a good cleaner that can remove grease and grease. Solvents, acetone, paint thinners, and car brake cleaners are perfect for this. But one of the best options will be 99% isopropyl alcohol and Kalosh solvent, better known as Gasoline Kalosh or Gasoline Galosh. If none of the above is available at home, then you can use dishwashing liquid or regular soap, cleaning with them will take a little longer.

It's also good to have a hair dryer on hand.

Is it possible to wash and how to clean the fidget spinner

Remove caps and buttons from bearing. Most bearing caps are threaded, so just hold one cap while unscrewing the other counterclockwise. Some spinners have covers with a magnet, in which case they simply separate and expose the bearing. Important: bearing balls can be covered with a plastic or metal protection, it is removed with a screwdriver, just stick the edge of the screwdriver and pry off the protection. Protection is inserted with a simple click, usually there are no difficulties with this.
There is no point in removing the bearing from the spinner housing. In addition, the bearing is most likely planted in a seat on the sealant, this allows you to reduce the vibration of the spinner and it is wiser to leave everything in its place. Otherwise, if you can easily remove the bearing, do so, as this will make cleaning easier. Important: if you use some strong solvents and your spinner case is plastic, be sure to remove the bearing, otherwise the solvent may damage (melt, dissolve) the case when cleaning. Therefore, it is important to use isopropyl alcohol, it does not spoil the plastic.
Pour cleaner, thinner or soap suds into the bearing, directly onto the bearing balls. Do not be afraid to overfill, this is the case when a lot is not a little.
Start or take out bearing, start slowly and gradually increase speed, alternate speed and direction of rotation.
Rinse the bearing under running water warm water, try to rotate it in different directions for 15-30 seconds.
Use a hair dryer to dry the bearing completely. Do not use rags or a towel, otherwise you will have to remove small threads and dust from the bearing.
Insert the bearing and cover it with caps.

How to make spinner spin quieter or faster

Typically, spinners are sold already with a lubricated bearing, lubrication somewhat reduces the speed of rotation and, as a result, the spinner rotates less than without lubrication. But lubrication dampens vibrations and the sound of a spinning bearing. If rotation time is important to you, then it makes sense to remove the grease in the above way, otherwise, after cleaning, you will have to re-lubricate the bearing for quieter rotation.

As a result, we have: if the bearing of your spinner is clean, has no lubrication, then the rotations are the longest. With lubrication, the rotation becomes a little slower and noticeably shorter, if you add dirt and dust in the bearing to this, it will rotate even more slowly. Timely cleaning and maintenance of the spinner, in any case, whether you use lubrication or not, will allow you to fully enjoy the long spinning of the spinner.

How does a spinner work? This miniature trainer does not require batteries or external charging to spin (although some models have LEDs for added effect). In the center there is a bearing, which you need to take with your thumb and forefinger, and with the other hand, unwind the device by the petals.

Sometimes when looking for an answer to the question of how to spin a spinner, you can find options without using your fingers. The spinner is placed on any flat surface (table, window sill, palm), pressed against the bearing by hand and unwound. Thus, it is possible to significantly increase the duration and speed of rotation.

What is a spinner made of?

This simple device includes only 3 parts:

Bearing. Placed in the center of the device, it looks like a ring with a metal/ceramic ball inside. have their own quality rating- ABC. The higher the rating, the higher the speed and duration of rotation. For practical purposes, only the central bearing is used. Such details can also be external, located on the petals.
