Which bearing can withstand both thrust and radial?
The “load” is the force applied to a bearing. The “radial load” is the force applied perpendicular to the shaft. The “axial load” is the force applied in the same direction as the shaft. Deep groove ball bearings sustain both radial load and axial load coming from both directions at the same time.
Are redz bearings compatible with longboards?
yes, any standard skate bearing is compatible with longboards, they both use the same bearings
If you bought roller hockey skates with mini bearings can those same skates be switched to standard bearings?
Yes, any skate can take either bearing but you need to have the right type of wheel and spacer per bearing. ie, if you have mini bearings you need mini hub wheels and spacers that fit the mini bearings. If you have standard bearings you need standard hub wheels and spacers that fit the standard bearings.
Is skate it the same as skate 2?
its the ds equivalent of skate (1)
How do you change wheel bearings on inline hockey skates?
First, remove the wheels from the chassis with a skate key/alan wrench. In the wheel hub, there should be one bearing on each side, now check the bearings to see if there is a spacer in the middle of the bearings. If there are spacers in between your bearings, you can push the spacer out to remove the bearings. If you have a mission skate key, (comes with every pair of mission skates) slide the skate key in the bearings where the axel would go, then push it until the bearing and spacer comes out... do the same with the other side. (put the spacer back in, then use it to push the other bearing out) If you have a tour skate key, (comes with every pair of tour skates) use the little nub on the side of the skate key to push the bearings out with the spacer. If your bearings do not have spacers in the middle, use a tour skate key to carefully pull each bearing out. (pull it slightly on each side like you would if you were pulling a computer chip out of a motherboard with a flathead screwdriver) If you do not have a skate key designed for removing bearings, I recommend you get one at your local pro shop or online store, otherwise you won't be able to pull the bearings out without damaging them.To put the bearings back in, just push them into the wheel hub.Do not forget to put the spacers back in if your skates require them!Weather your skates have spacers or not depends on the axel. (which is designed to fit your chassis, so don't try changing your axels on the same chassis) If you have 6mm axels, your bearings will need a spacer in the middle. If you have 8mm axels, you don't need and can't have spacers in your bearings. You may have different bearing sizes (608 standard bearings, or 688 "mini" bearings) but the process is the same.
Are rollerblades like in-line skates?
The term "rollerblades" is actually used interchangeably with inline skates. The largest inline skate dealer in the world is the Rollerblade company and their name has become the common place phrase for inline skates. Think in terms of the phrase kleenex. There is actually a company called Kleenex, and there are other companies that make tissue paper as well. However, most people just say kleenex in place of tissue. The same is done with Coke. So to ultimately answer your question, rollerblades are like inline skates because rollerblades are inline skates.
Can you put skate board wheels on quad roller skates?
Answer:Outdoor wheels are more rubbery and grippy and indoors are hard plastic
What is a bearing cage?
A bearing cage is a structure which keeps the individual ball bearings or needle bearings or rollers that are part of the same "bearing" unit in approximately the correct position relative to each other. In must bearing utilising a cage, the cage does not come directly into contact with any individual ball, needle, roller, or race during use being separated by a film of grease or oil.
Inline & Roller Skate Equipment?
Inline skating and roller skating are fun ways to burn major calories, and can even be a great alternative to cars and bikes when it comes to getting around. Whether skating is a hobby, or your chosen method of transportation, the right equipment can make it safer and easier in the long run. The most important piece of skating equipment is the skates themselves! Choosing the right skates is like choosing the right shoes. The perfect skates should never be uncomfortably tight, nor should they be so loose that your foot moves around inside them. A snug fit is optimal for a safe ride and to prevent blisters. It shouldn't be hard to find a store in your city that carries both inline skates and roller skates, and most of these retailers have an indoor skate area for you to test the merchandise. Make sure that you try out a pair of skates for a least a few minutes before buying them to get a good idea for how they feel. Also, don't be shy about trying on as many pairs of skates as you want. Inline skates come in various models, with buckles, laces, and ankle cuffs that vary in height and stability. You won't know what you like until you know all of your options! If you're looking for roller skates, roller skating rinks often have skate shops that carry a wider variety than you may find anywhere else. Protective gear is a must no matter what kind of skater you are. Protective padding for both inline skating and rolling skating is essentially the same, and should be easy to find. A helmet is the most important piece of protective equipment, and you should never skate without one. The hard exterior of skate helmets can come in a variety of materials, and the interior is usually a cushy foam that absorbs force if you fall. Most helmets also have an adjustable chin strap, and both adult and children's sizes are available. Protective padding is also essential to both inline skaters and roller skaters. Knee and elbow pads are basic protective elements, and shield the joints that are most vulnerable. Most people react instinctively to a fall by holding out their arms, which exposes the wrists to injury. Wrist guards help to prevent this, and investing in a pair can save you from a painful sprain. For daring skaters attempting tricks or speed skating, other types of protective equipment like shin, ankle, and even mouth guards can be added to help keep yourself injury free. The right skates and protective gear can last a long time, and will get you on the road to becoming the safest skater possible.
