SKF Skateboard Bearings Standard
Description
SKF Standard skateboard bearings bring more than a century of precision engineering to your wheels. SKF has been engineering precision bearings since it was founded in Sweden in 1907, supplying aerospace, automotive, medical, and heavy industry, where precision is everything.
The Standard is the entry point into that lineage: high quality industrial steel, a glass fibre reinforced polyamide cage, low friction grease, and a special low friction shield setup that keeps debris out without excess drag. For the skater who wants a reliable, long-lasting bearing without overthinking it, this is it. Made in Italy.
