KwiK Ceramic Bearings

Accelerate faster and roll farther with KwiK Ceramic bearings. These bearings utilize the advanced characteristics of ceramic balls and combine it with a ceramic Titanium Nitride coating on both sides of the bearing shield and the inner and outer bearing races to create remarkable performance. Aside from the striking metallic gold finish it imparts on the surfaces it covers, Titanium Nitride is a corrosion-resistant material that hardens and strengthens the surfaces it is applied to – improving the lifetime durability of the surface by a factor of 4 or more and further increasing maximum roll. KwiK Ceramic bearings, quite simply, are the most advanced ceramic bearings available.

I’ll start by saying that I’ve been skating for 25+ years and I’m not new to bearing performance. These were fast bearings and I had no issue for about one month. I clean and service my skates regularly. I started noticing some of the side plates “shields” that are press fitted in during assembly were moving inward, exposing the inner bearing races and restricting them from rolling. This was not due to improper install or maintenance issues on my part. Since these aren’t serviceable bearings, there’s no way to back those side plates away to free them to rotate freely again. I would not recommend these bearings, there are plenty of better choices at the same price point.

The attention quality control is bad. Straight out of the box bearing wobble regardless of installed on a 8mm quad or rollerblade axle. Tension or spacers will not cure the issues. Hopefully in the future their issue will be resolved.

Great, price point, ceramic bearings for skates. For the price not sure why anybody buys non-ceramic bearings.

So jealous because I bought these for my kid and not myself! Great performance! Well worth the money! We switched bearings one day and I typically use Bones precision and the difference was night and day! I definitely reccomend!

Nice quality bearings - very smooth, well-made - also look nice on my skates as well.I wish I had known that they are only half sealed (one side of bearing is open) since I do primarily skate outdoors. Picture shows that, but it seemed to me that because it wasnt mentioned at all in the description that they showed them half sealed so you could see the ceramic balls. Just equates to more cleaning. Would purchase again!Update: after using and troubleshooting a little more, I discovered that they have a bit of a "wobble". I put them in different wheels, on different skates and many other combinations - it is absolutely the bearings that have enough "give" that it creates a wobble; meaning not completely stable and solid on a pair of skates. I've had tons of skates and bearings and wheels... never encountered this before ! Have certainly had wobbles that were caused by other things (spacers wrong size, frames on skates, etc) but never the bearing itself. A little annoyed because these are on the spendier side and they would have been faster if it weren't for the friction that's happening.
