Atlas Trucks: Blackout Bearings
Cam Frazier walks you through the ins-and-outs of our Blackout Bearings in this new video featuring footage from team riders Jackson Wells, Mirko Paoloni and TJ Joo.
About the Blackout Bearings:
Staying loyal to the innovative history of the brand, the Atlas Blackout Bearings aren’t just your average built-in bearing.
When axle nuts are tightened down the result is often compression of the interior bearing spacer. This puts stress on your bearings and introduces slop into your setup, detracting from the precision that a bearing spacer is intended to provide.
The flared spacer built into the Atlas Blackout Bearing increases the surface area of the load bearing foot between the two bearings. This provides additional support and prevents compression of the spacer giving Atlas Blackout Bearings a more precise ride, faster roll speed and a long lasting life.
Each set of Blackout Bearings also has:
ABEC 9 RATING
CHROME STEEL
NYLON CAGE
8 BEARINGS PER SET
