Bones Super Reds skate bearings 8mm 16-pack — pre-lubed, removable shields for fast smooth roll

Bones Super Reds Bearings 8mm 16 Pack are precision skate bearings engineered for fast, consistent roll with durable components and low friction.

These 16 premium 8mm bearings from Bones deliver a balance of speed, strength and serviceability that skaters depend on. Built with improved steel races, higher-grade balls and a polished finish, they arrive pre-lubricated with Speed Cream so they’re ready to skate out of the box. The non-contact removable rubber shield and nylon retainer reduce rolling resistance while allowing easy maintenance when you want to clean and relube them.

How do these bearings improve my board’s roll?

The combination of better-grade balls, finely finished races and a low-friction lubricant reduces energy loss while rolling, which translates to smoother, faster movement with less effort. Optimized tolerances and materials maintain consistent performance across different speeds and surfaces.

• Higher-quality steel races for reduced surface imperfections and consistent contact.
• Precision balls with tighter grade for more uniform rotation.
• Speed Cream pre-lube to minimize initial break-in time.
• Low-friction nylon retainer and removable rubber shield for smoother spin.

Can I clean or service these bearings myself?

Yes — each bearing has a single, removable non-contact rubber shield that comes off easily for cleaning. Because they’re designed for maintenance, you can remove the shields, flush contaminants, dry, and re-lubricate with your preferred bearing oil or grease to extend lifespan and restore top performance.

• Non-contact rubber shield is removable for straightforward access.
• Flushing and re-lubing recommended after exposure to dirt or moisture.
• Compatible with standard bearing cleaning kits and lubricants.

What makes the internal design faster and more durable?

Internal parts are selected and assembled to prioritize speed and resilience. A high-speed nylon ball retainer keeps balls correctly spaced under load with minimal drag, while premium materials and tight manufacturing tolerances limit play and uneven wear.

• Nylon retainer reduces friction and resists deformation at speed.
• Skate-rated clearances for consistent performance under skate loads.
• Superior surface finish on races reduces abrasive wear over time.

What do I get in the pack and how do they fit my wheels?

This pack contains 16 standard 8mm bearings, enough for four wheels (four bearings per wheel with spacers and shields as applicable). They fit most skateboard and roller skate wheels that use standard 8mm axle bearings. For hubguard or specialty setups, verify wheel and truck compatibility first.

• 16 bearings sized for standard 8mm axles and most skate wheels.
• Pre-lubed, ready to install with typical skate hardware.
• Removable shields and standard inner/outer race dimensions for universal fit.

Who is this for: Bones Super Reds 8mm bearings are ideal for skaters who want reliable, high-speed bearings that are easy to service. They suit street, park and commuting skaters who value quick roll, straightforward maintenance and durable construction without premium ceramic pricing.
