Skate Bearings - Question 15

Are Nylon or Polyamide Retainers good for Skating Applications?

A nylon or polyamide retainer has some advantages over a steel retainer. Skating is an application that involves a lot of vibration, and bearings don’t like vibration. Steel retainers are especially prone to damage under excessive vibration. Nylon or polyamide retainers are more tolerant of vibration. They also hold lubricant in place for longer.
