What Are Our Concerns About Bearings(6)

Brand history of slide bearing:

More than 34 years of bearing design and manufacturing years, BONES bearing development so far, is one of the best-selling slide bearing in the United States, the use of unique rubber protection, convenient bearing cleaning, reduce bearing friction, high-speed nylon support to provide greater speed for the bearing.  

Basic composition of bearings:    

Rolling、   Inner ring、 Retainer、   Outer ring、 Dust cover

Dust cover:

As the name suggests, is to play the role of dust.  Dustproof cover can reduce dust and other debris into the bearing to a certain extent, delaying the service life of the bearing.  Not all skaters like the dust cap, some like to remove the dust cap, although the noise will be louder, but the slide quickly.  

Rolling:

The sliding plate bearing we use is a rolling bearing with a rolling body, and is also a deep groove ball bearing in rolling bearings. The size and code is 608Z (according to the industrial division, especially refers to the model size).  The common rolling body of sliding plate bearings is steel ball, but also ceramic ball. Generally speaking, each set of bearings is made of 7 steel balls/ceramic balls as a group of rolling body, mounted between the inner and outer rings.  

Retainer:

Cage is to make the rolling body in the bearing evenly separated, so that each steel ball can keep in the appropriate position of normal rolling, and play a role in preventing the rolling body falling off.  

Inner and Outer ring:

The outer ring is the most outer circular metal outer ring, and the inner ring is a metal ring smaller than the outer ring in the center of the bearing. Both provide rolling grooves for the rolling body. 

Grade of slide bearing:

ABEC is the definition standard for precision bearings. Bearings in THE ABEC system are numbered 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 respectively. The higher the number, the higher the accuracy and the faster the speed.  

However, ABEC rating standard is not the only evaluation standard for sliding plate bearings, because there will be huge impact force brought by jumping and lateral torque brought by sideshow in the process of sliding plate.  

Bearing material:

1 Metal bearing:  Now the vast majority of sliding plate bearings are made of metal. Compared with ceramic bearings, metal bearings are more durable and can withstand the huge impact generated by jumping, but they are easy to rust when stained with water.  

2 Ceramic bearing :Ceramic bearing is a new material in recent years, compared with the traditional metal bearing, ceramic bearing friction is small, speed is fast, slide more smoothly, water is not afraid of rust, of course, the price is much more expensive than metal bearing.  Although ceramic bearings have high hardness, they are brittle and fragile.  

The difference between industrial bearing and slide bearing

When it comes to sliding plate bearings, we think of industrial bearings. The reason is also very simple and cheap.

For example. There are industrial alcohol and medical alcohol. If these two are replaced and mixed, it is estimated that the Chinese population will be at least 1/3 less.  In addition to taking into account daily sliding, we should also ensure the earthquake resistance and fall resistance of each action. The environment is different from that of industrial bearing rings.  

Of course, if it is forced to replace the industrial bearing skateboard, it will cause frequent shaft explosion. It is simple and easy to understand. It is playing, and the small balls inside the bearing are scattered on the ground, causing injury.

Bearing clean:  

The cleaning of sliding plate bearings is very simple, get the bearing down from the plate, wipe off the oil and stains on the bearing with paper towels, wipe off the inner wall of the wheel,   and change the wheel around and around is good for the patencyof the bearing. 

 About once a week, the high temperature generated by the rotation of the bearing when the plate is used, the glue of the wheel and the bearing wall are close to each other, resulting in the  inconvenient change of the wheel or the bearing, so it is often necessary to remove the bearing from the wheel and load it on. In order to avoid trouble, the bearing can be cleaned at the same time.  

Bearing rust:  

Bearing will rust when it encounters water. If after water, it will continue to slide, and the moisture volatilization of the wheel is very fast, and the volatilization is finished after sliding about 10 meters.  

How to choose bearings suitable for yourself:

Domestic bearings, foreign bearings and mainstream Bones bearings are all good choices. The price can be accepted, basically within 100 yuan. The sliding plate damage rate is relatively fixed.  

Skateboard itself is a loss, but relative to the board face, wheels, taken together, bearing is second only to bridge a consumption goods, mainstream for skateboard bearing on price inside the can choose one hundred yuan, at the same time in mainstream choice selection of some imported brands, one hundred yuan, or about 50 yuan of home-made slide bearings, quality and import skateboard bearings within one hundred yuan.  

At the same time, Shandong YOCHI Bearing Co., Ltd. is a bearing industry based, set research and development, production, sales in one of the bearing manufacturing enterprises.  Our company always adhere to the “quality first, customer first” principle, the best quality, the lowest price products to meet customer needs.  

Bearing maintenance and replacement problems:

Bearing maintenance is actually oil and clean, the bearing oil had better not on kerosene (oil), it is best not to add the oil, because oil, although can play the role of lubrication, but easily stained with dust, oil is running for a while will find bearing dustproof cover with a layer of black dirty things, if there is no dust cover, the bearing is discarded.  Dust into the inside of the bearing, the sense of experience is greatly reduced, but also wear ball, increase the probability of shaft explosion.  So oiling can consider a special WD-40 universal rust removal lubricant.  

In addition, each set of bearings (8) are independent packages. The speed, friction coefficient, material and technological level of the 8 bearings are similar. In order to ensure the maximum efficiency of each set of bearings, they are placed in a packaging box.  To put it another way, when your bearing blows, it is best to replace the rest of the bearing.
