Lube skateboard bearings are an essential part of maintaining a smooth and enjoyable skateboarding experience. Well-lubricated bearings reduce friction, allowing wheels to spin freely and effortlessly. Proper lubrication extends bearing life, protects against corrosion, and enhances overall skate performance.
Benefit | Description |
---|---|
Reduced Friction: Lubrication minimizes friction between bearing components, ensuring smooth, effortless rolling. | |
Extended Bearing Life: Lubrication prevents wear and tear on bearing surfaces, prolonging their lifespan. | |
Corrosion Protection: Lubricants create a protective barrier against moisture and dirt, preventing rust formation. | |
Improved Performance: Lubricated bearings spin more freely, resulting in increased acceleration and speed. |
Lubricant Type | Pros | Cons |
---|---|---|
Oil-Based Lubricants: Penetrates deeply, providing long-lasting lubrication. | Can attract dirt and dust. | |
Grease-Based Lubricants: Stays in place longer, providing consistent lubrication. | More difficult to apply evenly. | |
Dry Lubricants: Clean and easy to apply, but may not last as long. |
Step 1: Remove bearings from wheels.
Step 2: Clean bearings with a degreaser or rubbing alcohol.
Step 3: Apply a small drop of lubricant to the inside of each bearing.
Step 4: Reinstall bearings into wheels.
