What are bearings?
The small metal pieces that fit between the core and the bolts on inline roller skates are called bearings. These bearings reduce friction and support the axle load, enabling a smooth and efficient rotation of the roller skate wheels. They come in various sizes and types, designed to fit different applications and load requirements.
What are spacers?
Spacers sit between the bearings in the wheels and ensure that the bearings are properly positioned. Although they are small, their significance is great and makes your rolling experience better and faster.
Get ready to roll with the right bearings
Bearings play a crucial role in the performance and efficiency of your roller skates. They enable a smooth and efficient rotation of the wheels, which is essential for both speed and control in roller skating. There are different types of bearings to suit different roller skating levels and styles.
To find the right bearings, look at the ABEC rating, which indicates the precision and smoothness of the bearing. The higher the ABEC value, the higher the level of precision, which can improve your speed and reduce friction. In addition, there are special bearings for different environments.
When should I change the bearings on my roller skates?
Generally, your roller skate bearings should be changed every 8 to 12 months. Signs that it is time to replace them include visible wear, a noticeable decrease in the wheel's rotational ability, and unusual noises during use. Regular maintenance and inspection of your bearings can extend their life, but when they begin to show signs of deterioration, it is important to replace them to maintain the efficiency and safety of the roller skates.
