What are the best skateboard bearings?

As the best professional skateboard bearing manufacturer in China, TFL BEARINGS has two main advantages compared with other bearing distributors.

First of all, because we are a manufacturer and have a professional factory, all costs are under our control. The price of our skateboard bearings is relatively low. We hope to expand sales through low profits and quickly gain a larger market share.

Secondly, we can provide professional private customization services, customized according to customer requirements, including printing the customer’s logo on the bearing cover and making customized packaging and non-standard sizes. You can learn more about us through the following content.


Also, for all questions related to skateboard bearings, you can contact our bearing experts, we are happy to help you!

As we all know, the accuracy of Abec 3 skateboard bearings is higher than that of ABEC-1 bearings. But why not many customers choose ABEC 3 608 skateboard bearings? Because if customers consider cost and want to lower prices, they will choose relatively cheap ABEC-1 bearings. If customers value the quality of bearings more and hope to have higher performance bearings, they will choose ABEC5 or higher precision bearings. So from a certain perspective, ABEC 3 skateboards bearing for longboard doesn’t have a very high ratio and doesn’t possess a high proportion in the ABEC 3 bearing 608zz market.

As China’s leading bearing manufacturers and suppliers, we can provide more professional bearing data parameters for customers. In addition, detailed abec-3 parameters on our website, but these parameters are based on professional bearing those areas. In addition, you can learn more through this article about AEBC.

Abec 5 skateboard bearings have a higher level of accuracy. Assuming that abec1 and abec3 are ordinary bearings, starting from abec 5, we can call them high-precision bearings abec-5 bearing 608zz ball bearing. The advantages of abec 5 roller skate bearings are reflected in higher processing technology, including the accuracy of bearing rings and steel balls, so abec 5 bearings have lower friction, faster speed, and longer service life. If you are pursuing the precision of the bearing, but do not want to invest more cost, then abec 5 bearing is the best choice. Among precision bearings, abec 5 bearings are our best-selling products. In the field of skateboard bearings, most customers will choose abec 5 skateboard bearings.

Abec 7 roller skate bearings are ground and polished to reach a very high level of accuracy. This means that the skateboard bearing abec 7 will have better wear resistance, so it may have a faster speed and longer service life.

These bearings are made of stainless steel, rated ABEC-7, and are designed to achieve higher speeds on smooth ground. The ABEC specification refers to the “roundness” of the internal track of the bearing, which allows the internal components to move freely without obstacles, thereby increasing the speed.

The higher the ABEC rating, the more accurate the bearing manufacturing process, in general, the quality of the manufacturer’s bearings is also possible. Although ordinary skateboards do not actually need bearings with ABEC grades above 1, it is generally believed that it is better to use higher-grade bearings on wheels.

Relatively speaking, the price of the 608rs abec 7 bearing is higher, and the ABEC 7 bearing will be very fast and smooth, but very expensive. Also, if you or violently trying to glide, you will unnecessarily risking damage to their risk. Note that some cheaper foreign-made ABEC 7 bearings may not be worth this level.

ABEC 9 bearings okay?

The ABEC scale is an industry-recognized tolerance standard for ball bearings. TFL ABEC 9 bearings are very fast and high-precision bearings best. For example, if you want to achieve higher speeds on downhill skate, these bearings can handle.

How to choose the correct ABEC grade for your bearing?

Choosing the correct ABEC grade for a bearing application requires a deep understanding of what an ABEC scale represents. Most of the bearings sold belong to ABEC grades 1 and 3 and have very good performance. These bearings are located end of the spectrum, usually used for precision applications, such as automotive parts, skateboards, motors, and gearboxes.

In applications where the bearings need to operate at very high RPMs, or in equipment that requires precise positioning, tighter tolerances are often required. For example, products such as high-speed routers with speeds exceeding 30,000 RPM are called high-precision, ultra-high-precision, and ultra- or ultra-high-precision.
In these cases, you usually need to choose ABEC 7 or ABEC 9. These higher ratings for manufacturing bearing needs to be more precise machining and longer production times. They also have a significantly higher price, usually low-rated bearing as much as five times the price.

What bearing selection application areas need to be considered ABEC rating?

Mechanical tools
• Aerospace parts
• robot technology
• Medical equipment
Equipment that must maintain high RPM

It is important to note that although ABEC grades can help determine bearing performance to a certain extent, there are several other factors that need to be evaluated when selecting the right bearing. For example, without considering ABEC grade material properties, impact resistance, side loading, lubrication, clearance, noise, and installation requirements.
Thus, it can be observed a significant difference between two similar bearings on the rated performance in different environments. For similar reasons, in some applications, a lower ABEC rating of bearings may be better than higher-rated ABEC bearings.

Is ABEC-11 the highest grade of skateboard bearings?

You will see roller skate bearings on the market with various ABEC grades: ABEC-1, ABEC-3, ABEC-5, ABEC-7, ABEC-9, and even ABEC-11. Is ABEC-11 better than ABEC-3 or 3 better than 11? Is the ABEC rating of roller skate bearings important? What does it mean? Reading the following article may help you answer.

What is the purpose of the higher precision bearings, as attained by the ABEC standard?

High precision bearings designed to allow high-precision machinery running smoothly at high speeds, sometimes more than standard bearings allowed. With this in mind, a standard ABEC 1,608ZZ rated 32000 RPM with grease and oil lubrication limit speed of 38000 RPM. Actual speed, trouble-free bearings will also depend on the load and other health applications, but it is not necessary to go into too heavy here.

We believe that we have to emphasize here is not the purpose of high precision bearings in order to go faster, but (among other things) to allow high-speed machinery to operate at a faster speed than standard bearings will allow.

What is ABEC?


First, let us understand the meaning and ABEC its source. ABEC is really just the first letter of a ring bearing the Engineering Committee (ABEC) acronym. The committee organized by the American Bearing Manufacturers Association, a non-profit (ABMA) was established.

ABEC created a standard called the ABEC scale, the standard measure of tolerance ball bearings. ABEC scale involving manufacturers must meet in order to achieve precision ball bearings ABEC standards. Then, using a standard ABEC as a method to ensure that the bearings for certain applications meet the criteria, and therefore can be used in this application (e.g., in this case, a roller skate). ABEC ball bearings provide dimensions, so that the manufacturer can understand the different parts of these dimensions and tolerances of design parts to accommodate the use of bearing applications.

ABEC scale from 1 to the maximum is divided into 11 odd class. As the number of ball bearings become more rounded and more accurate.

TFL BEARINGS has specially developed abec 11 skateboard bearings for the skateboard industry. We can see from the official introduction that there is actually no abec-11 bearing in the bearing industry in the industrial field. However, in order to meet the requirements of some customers, we rarely improve bearing accuracy on the basis of abec-9 but specialize in research and development and production of abec-11 608 bearings. There is no doubt that it is the highest grade skateboard bearing, which means it has the highest speed and the best performance.
