Power-torque vs Ultra-torque BB - same thing?

Hello,
I ordered some power-torque outboard cups but the shop sent me record ultra-torque. To me they look identical, but they are marked 'ultra-torque only', which must mean something, right? So is there any difference between ultra-torque and power- torque bb cups and bearings? Can you use an ultra torque BB with power torque cranks?
Thanks for any info,
Dickie

You can't use the ones you were sent unfortunately. If you can't return them I have PT bb cups bnib you can have for v cheap. Same thing happened to me in reverse.0

Very different the P-T cups have the NDS bearing pressed in the cup and the bearing are different. U-T cups have not bearings in them. You will need new bearings for U-T cranks if you are replacing them.
You hould be able to reurn them at there cost if it is there mistake.http://www.thecycleclinic.co.uk -wheel building and other stuff.0
