Skateboard Bearings Buying Guide

Overview

Producing bearings for a variety of demanding applications since 1907, SKF now helps skateboarders maintain a high performance with premium skateboard bearings. The SKF Standard Skateboard Bearings are engineered for high reliability using internal grease to improve low-friction performance.

Features

Type

ABEC 5 - The ABEC scale is essentially a measurement of bearing tolerance for high precision bearings as dictated by the Annular Bearing Engineering Committee (ABEC). The scale runs from ABEC 1 through ABEC 9 using odd integers only. Essentially, the higher up on the scale a bearing is rated the tighter the tolerance is.

Tighter bearing tolerance means that the bearing moves with less resistance at high speeds, giving you a bit more roll for your push. In general most ABEC 3 or ABEC 5 bearings have steel races (shell of the bearing) with hardened steel ball bearings, and most ABEC 7 or ABEC 9 bearings feature steel races with super hard (much harder than steel) ceramic or titanium bearings.

SKF Standard Skateboard Bearings

As equal to Bones Swiss at a good price, they are heavily greased, but they break in quickly.

If you like to replace bearings often, this is not the brand for you.

SKF Standard Skateboard Bearings

I had SKF bearings almost a decade ago, and they were super nice. I bought a set because my bronson’s were blown out after like 4 years of heavy use, and they still spun faster than these. I noticed I had to push more to get through longer grinds which is no bueno, no push lines for me plz. They’re alright, just not what I imagined they’d be compared to the old ones I had.
