How to Choose Skateboard Bearings

Quality skateboard bearings help your wheels roll faster, smoother and for longer. While every bearing fits standard skateboard wheels, different brands and models offer varying levels of speed, durability and maintenance depending on your style of skating.

Popular Skateboard Bearing Brands

We stock genuine bearings from trusted brands including Bones Bearings and Bronson Bearings. Whether you're looking for an affordable everyday bearing or a premium upgrade, there's an option to suit every skateboarder.

ABEC Ratings vs Skate Bearings

Many skateboard bearings don't use traditional ABEC ratings because they're specifically engineered for skateboarding rather than industrial machinery. Brands like Bones and Bronson focus on real-world durability, speed and impact resistance instead of chasing higher ABEC numbers.

Complete Your Setup

Pair your new bearings with skateboard wheels, trucks, decks and hardware to keep your setup performing at its best.
