These ceramic bearings are a special edition of the esteemed and durable Bones Reds bearings. Thanks to the ceramic balls, the bearings are lighter and more robust, which helps prolong their lifespan. The ceramic balls do not rust and will typically crush any sand that enters the bearing.
You should still steer clear of sand and water as they will always significantly reduce bearing life, especially if you do not clean the item afterwards. Furthermore, it is important to keep in mind that the metal ring around the bearing will naturally still rust.
The following features are noted on the bearing:
Features grade 5, silicon nitride, hot isostatically pressed ceramic balls.
Superior quality steel races with an enhanced surface finish.
Single non-contact removable rubber shield for ease of cleaning and reduced friction.
High-speed nylon ball retainer offering greater strength and speed.
Pre-lubricated with Speed Cream ™ racing lubricant.
Skate Rated ™ clearances, tolerances, materials and lubricant provide optimal performance and durability.

KarlssonNybro, SwedenVerified Buyer2 of 5Absolutely NOT worth the money. Not noticeably better, (than my enuff Black 160kr) rolls slightly nicer but absolutely not worth a penny more than 500 krGöran LarssonRåda, SwedenVerified Buyer5 of 5Cannon stock , o fast delivery.Bardhok BicakuArlöv, Sweden2 of 5worked great first 3 weeks not worth the moneyReply from SkateProWhat a pity that the ball bearings rolled worse after 3 weeks. If you ride with ball bearings when it is wet or dirty, it gets into the ball bearings and impairs the roll. However, these are open ball bearings that you can open up and clean so that they roll better again. You can read more about this at https://www.skatepro.se/a4.htm
/NiklasSusanne t.Kalmar, SwedenVerified Buyer5 of 5Incredibly good roll and completely silent running. If I turn the board and spin a wheel, it keeps running for around 5 minutes. I was very surprised by the quality which must be among the best on the market! The product is WELL WORTH its price.Marika Johansson DehmanÄlmhult, Sweden3 of 5Satisfieddaniel nielsenhobro, Denmark4 of 5Really good bearings! In the beginning you get a sense of speed that you never get from regular bearings, however, I would not recommend these for extreme sports as the price is a bit too high compared to the durability.
