    Looking for the best roller skate bearings in the world? Look no further than Bont. We partner with leading manufacturers, such as Jesa of Switzerland, to produce roller skate bearings of exceptional quality. Our bearings are made from premium hardened steel, and we use extremely precise balls. In addition, we double polish the inner race to ensure maximum smoothness.

    Unlike many other bearings on the market, our roller skate bearings come pre-lubricated with a light racing oil rather than grease. This ensures they're ready to use right out of the box. Our Black series and ceramic bearings are made from high-grade steel and polished to perfection, ensuring they provide top-notch performance.

    Bont's roller skate bearings are tested not only by our professional roller derby and roller skating teams but also by inline skaters who have set world records using our bearings. We pay meticulous attention to detail when constructing our bearings, so you can trust that you're getting the highest-quality product.

    When you choose Bont, you're choosing roller skate bearings that are designed to provide unparalleled speed, precision, and durability. Whether you're a quad, roller skate, or roller derby skater, our bearings will help you perform your best.

    ABEC Rating for Roller Skate Bearings

    If you're looking for the best roller skate bearings, you've probably come across the ABEC rating system. ABEC stands for Annular Bearing Engineering Committee, and it's a way of measuring the precision of bearings used in various applications, including roller skates.

    The ABEC rating for roller skate bearings ranges from 1 to 9, with 9 being the highest precision. However, it's important to note that the ABEC rating doesn't necessarily indicate the overall quality of the bearing, but rather its precision.

    ABEC 5 bearings are a common choice for recreational roller skaters. They provide good speed and durability without breaking the bank. ABEC 7 bearings are a step up in precision, making them a popular choice for competitive skaters or those who want a smoother and faster ride. However, it's worth noting that the ABEC rating system is not standardized across all manufacturers. Some brands may use their own rating system, or even exaggerate the ABEC rating on their bearings. So, while the ABEC rating can be a helpful starting point in choosing roller skate bearings, it's not the only factor to consider.

    At Bont, we believe that the best roller skate bearings are those made with high-quality materials and precise manufacturing processes. That's why our bearings undergo rigorous testing and are made with the highest quality materials, resulting in bearings that provide maximum speed, precision, and durability.

    Bearing Press

    As a Bont skater, you know how important it is to have top-quality equipment, and a roller skate bearing press is no exception. A Bont roller skate bearing press is a useful tool designed to make it easier to install and remove bearings from your Bont roller skate wheels, as well as other inline skate wheels, skateboard wheels, and scooter wheels. The press typically consists of a frame and two or more rods that apply pressure to the bearings and push them into or out of the wheel.

    Using a Bont bearing press can help prevent damage to your Bont bearings or wheels during the installation or removal process, and it can save time and effort compared to more manual methods, such as using a hammer or pliers. With a Bont bearing press, you can quickly and easily get your bearings in and out of your wheels, ensuring that your Bont skates or other equipment are always in top condition for optimal performance.

    Bont 608 Bearings: Precision and Performance for Roller and Quad Skate Bearings

    As a roller or quad skater, you know that every component of your gear can affect your performance on the rink or the street. That's why Bont offers top-quality 608 bearings that are designed to deliver precision and performance, no matter what your skating style or level.

    608 bearings are the most popular type of roller and quad skate bearing, used not only in roller skates but also in inline skates, skateboards, and scooters. However, not all 608 bearings are created equal. Cheap 608 bearings may use softer metal that warps under load, lack a polished inner race, and be packed with grease instead of light racing oil. This can lead to reduced performance and even damage to your equipment.

    With Bont 608 bearings, you can be sure that you're getting the highest quality materials and manufacturing processes, resulting in bearings that are built to last and provide maximum speed and precision on the rink or the street. Don't settle for subpar bearings - upgrade to Bont and experience the difference for yourself!

    Bont Ceramic Roller Skate Bearings: Top-Grade Performance

    If you're looking for the best roller skate bearings money can buy, look no further than Bont's ceramic bearings. While ceramic bearings are known for their exceptional performance, not all ceramic roller skate bearings are created equal. Cheap ceramic bearings may not use high-grade ceramic balls, fail to polish the inner race, and can even be slower than a steel 608 bearing.

    At Bont, we use only top-grade ceramic balls and employ advanced manufacturing techniques to create roller skate bearings that deliver unparalleled speed and precision. Our ceramic roller skate bearings are designed to outperform and outlast the competition, giving you the edge you need to excel in your sport.

    Not only are our ceramic roller skate bearings of top-grade performance, but they also offer several advantages over traditional steel bearings. Ceramic bearings are lighter, harder, and more resistant to corrosion and wear than steel bearings. They also generate less heat and friction, resulting in increased speed and durability.

    Bont is proud to offer a premium ceramic bearing that doesn't compromise on quality or performance. Upgrade to Bont ceramic roller skate bearings and experience the ultimate in speed and precision for your skates, inline skates, skateboards, or scooters.

    Bont 688 Bearings: Lightweight and Fast

    When it comes to rollerskate bearings, the 688 bearings are a popular choice. Also known as mini bearings, they are designed to spool up faster than 608 roller skate bearings, thanks to their smaller size and lighter weight. This can translate to improved speed and agility on the rink or the street, making them a great choice for competitive skaters looking to gain an edge.

    Despite their smaller size, Bont 688 bearings are still built to the same high standards as their larger counterparts. They feature high-grade materials and precise manufacturing processes to ensure that they perform consistently and last a long time. Plus, they are compatible with a wide range of roller skate wheels, so you can easily upgrade your existing setup.

    At the heart of the Bont 688 bearings are their high-quality steel balls. This makes them a great choice for demanding skaters who want the best performance possible from their gear. And with the Bont branding, you can trust that you're getting a product that has been designed and tested by skaters, for skaters.

    So if you're looking for a lightweight and fast option for your rollerskate bearings, consider upgrading to Bont 688 bearings. You won't be disappointed!

    167 Roller Skate Wheel Bearings

    When it comes to high-end roller skate plates, Bont has developed a specialized bearing - the 167 bearing. With a 16mm outer diameter and a 7mm inner diameter, these bearings are designed to fit seamlessly with high-end roller skate plates, providing smooth and precise movement.

    Similar to the 688 skate bearings, the 167 bearings are lightweight and spool up quickly for fast acceleration. However, they differ in their axle hole size, which is specifically designed to fit high-end roller skate plates.

    At Bont, we understand that every component of your roller skates can impact your performance on the rink. That's why we've developed top-quality 167 roller skate wheel bearings to ensure that your skates are operating at their best. Don't settle for subpar wheel bearings - upgrade to Bont and experience the difference for yourself!

    Swiss Bearings

    Swiss roller skate bearings are high-precision bearings that are designed to provide smooth and fast rolling for roller skaters. While the name may suggest that they are made in Switzerland, most Swiss bearings are actually made in China, although they are manufactured to strict quality standards to ensure consistent performance and durability.

    Originally, Swiss bearings were indeed made in Switzerland, but over time, the term "Swiss" has become more of a style or quality descriptor rather than an indicator of the bearings' country of origin. As a result, many high-quality bearings that meet the precision standards of Swiss bearings are marketed and sold as "Swiss" bearings, regardless of where they are made.

    Despite their higher price tag, many roller skaters prefer Swiss bearings due to their smoothness and speed, which can be especially beneficial for competitive skaters. Ultimately, the choice of which bearings to use is a matter of personal preference and budget, but Swiss bearings are definitely worth considering for skaters looking to maximize their performance on the rink or on the street.

    Roller Skate Bearing FAQs

    Cleaning your roller skate bearings regularly can help extend their lifespan and maintain their performance. Here are the steps to clean your roller skate bearings:

    • Remove the bearings from your skates or wheels using a bearing tool or a small flathead screwdriver.
    • Place the bearings in a container or jar with a cleaning solution, such as isopropyl alcohol or a specialized bearing cleaner.

    • Remove the bearings from the solution and dry them thoroughly with a clean towel or cloth.
    • Once dry, add a few drops of lubricant to each bearing and re-install them onto your skates or wheels.

    If you're looking for an alternitive, quick and easy way to clean your bearings, Bont's electronic bearing cleaner is a faster and easier option.

    Here's how to install roller skate bearings onto your wheels:

    • Remove the old bearings from your wheels if necessary.
    • Hold the wheel by the core and press the bearing into the wheel's bearing seat. You can use a bearing press tool or a clean, soft cloth to protect the bearing from damage during installation.
    • Ensure that the bearing is seated properly and flush with the wheel's surface.
    • Repeat the process for the other side of the wheel.
    • Once all bearings are installed, replace the wheels onto your skates.

    If you want to make inserting and extracting bearings a easier, you can try using Bont's bearing press. It's a handy tool that can save you time and effort, especially when working with aluminum wheels. Give it a try and see how easy it can be to maintain your roller skates!

    To press a wheel bearing, you will need a bearing press tool. Here are the steps:

    • Place the wheel onto the press tool and slide the shaft of the tool through the center of the wheel.
    • Place the bearing onto the tool's cup, with the open side facing down.
    • Lower the press tool's plunger onto the bearing, pressing it into the wheel's bearing seat.
    • Ensure that the bearing is seated properly and flush with the wheel's surface.
    • Repeat the process for the other side of the wheel.
    • Once all bearings are installed, replace the wheels onto your skates.

    To remove bearings from your roller skate wheels, you will need a bearing tool or a small flathead screwdriver. Here are the steps:

    • Place the wheel on a flat surface, with the bearing facing up.
    • Insert the bearing tool or screwdriver into the gap between the wheel and the bearing.
    • Gently pry the bearing out of the wheel, using a back-and-forth motion.
    • Once the bearing is partially out of the wheel, use your fingers to remove it completely.
    • Repeat the process for the other side of the wheel.

    Each roller skate typically requires 8 bearings, 2 for each wheel.

    Many people believe that Swiss-made bearings are of higher quality than those made elsewhere. While it's true that Swiss bearings are renowned for their precision and durability, the quality of bearings made in other countries, has improved greatly in recent times.

    Some manufacturers have made significant investments in technology and quality control measures to create bearings that are comparable to, or even superior to, Swiss-made bearings. This is particularly true for high-end bearings that demand advanced materials and manufacturing methods.

    In the end, the decision to use Swiss or other bearings depends on the skater's individual preferences and specific requirements.

    The best bearings for roller skates can vary depending on personal preferences, skating style, and budget. Ceramic bearings are known for their exceptional performance but come with a higher price tag. It's important to choose bearings that are appropriate for your skill level and skating needs.

    1. ABEC Rating: The ABEC rating is a common way to measure bearing quality, but it's important to note that not all ABEC ratings are created equal. In general, a higher ABEC rating indicates a more precise bearing, but other factors like material quality and manufacturing processes can also affect performance.
    2. Material: Roller skate bearings can be made from a variety of materials, including steel, ceramic, and titanium. Each material has its own advantages and disadvantages, so it's important to consider what qualities are most important to you (e.g. speed, durability, etc.).
    3. Brand Reputation: It's always a good idea to buy roller skate bearings from a reputable brand with a track record of producing high-quality products.
    4. Purpose: Different types of skating (e.g. speed skating, jam skating, etc.) may require different types of bearings, so consider what type of skating you'll be doing when selecting your bearings.
    5. Price: Higher-quality bearings often come with a higher price tag, so consider your budget when making your selection.

    Ultimately, the best roller skate bearings for you will depend on your individual needs and preferences. It's important to do your research, read reviews, and try out different types of bearings to find the ones that work best for you.
