Would the ball bearings be chrome coated? I wouldn't think so but though I can just barely see them in the gap in the shaft there is no way I can get to them to see what they are comprised of? The warning about the bearing surfaces being problematic after de-rusting is well taken but as there is no way for me to get in there and look I' just have to try and experiment I guess.
