High-speed hybrid ceramic bearing for inline skates, skateboards and precision equipment.
The 608 RS Hybrid Ceramic Bearing is a high-performance deep groove ball bearing combining AISI52100 chrome steel rings with 6 Si₃N₄ (silicon nitride) ceramic balls and a reinforced nylon PA66 cage. The bearing is pre-lubricated with Super Lube oil and covered on one side with a non-contact NBR rubber seal. This hybrid construction delivers low density, low friction, high strength, and resistance to both electricity and magnetism. Compared with standard stainless steel bearings, the 608 RS offers up to 1.5× higher speed capability and 2–3× longer service life, with a maximum operating temperature of 220°C.
With a compact 8 mm bore, 22 mm outside diameter and 7 mm width, this bearing is widely used in inline skates, skateboards, scooters, and other high-speed rotational applications where smooth, low-drag performance and durability are essential. Suitable for athletes, racers and amateurs, the rolling resistance is reduced to a minimum after the lubricant is captured.

Key Features
Hybrid Ceramic Construction
AISI52100 chrome steel rings combined with 6 Si₃N₄ ceramic balls deliver the strength of steel with the low density and low friction of ceramic, significantly reducing centrifugal forces and energy loss at high speeds.
High-Speed Capability
Up to 1.5× higher speed capability compared with standard stainless steel bearings, making it ideal for inline skating, skateboarding, and other high-rpm applications.
Extended Service Life
Service life increased by 2–3× compared with stainless steel bearings, thanks to the superior wear resistance of Si₃N₄ ceramic balls and the durability of AISI52100 rings.
Electrical & Magnetic Resistance
Si₃N₄ ceramic balls are electrically insulating and non-magnetic, preventing arcing damage and electrolytic corrosion in motors and precision equipment.
Pre-Lubricated with Super Lube Oil
The bearing is pre-lubricated with Super Lube oil, and the lubricant is captured within the bearing to minimize rolling resistance for athletes, racers and amateurs.
High Temperature Tolerance
Applicable for operating temperatures up to 220°C, suitable for demanding thermal conditions where standard bearings may degrade.
Single-Side Non-Contact Seal
Covered on one side with a plastic non-contact cap made of NBR rubber, providing effective protection against contaminants while maintaining low friction and high-speed performance.
Typical Applications
● Inline Skates & Rollerblades — smooth, low-drag rolling for speed and endurance.
● Skateboards & Longboards — fast acceleration and consistent performance under heavy use.
● Scooters & Fidget Spinners — high-speed rotation with minimal friction.
● Electric Motors & Fans — electrical insulation prevents current-induced damage.
● Precision Equipment — instruments requiring low friction and high rotational accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the dimensions of the 608 RS hybrid ceramic bearing?
The 608 RS has a 8 mm bore, 22 mm outside diameter and 7 mm width, with a weight of approximately 10 g.
What is the difference between a hybrid ceramic bearing and a full ceramic bearing?
A hybrid bearing uses steel rings (AISI52100) with ceramic balls (Si₃N₄), while a full ceramic bearing uses ceramic for both rings and balls. Hybrid bearings offer a balance of cost, load capacity, and ceramic ball benefits.
What lubricant is used in the 608 RS hybrid bearing?
The bearing is pre-lubricated with Super Lube oil, which is captured within the bearing to minimize rolling resistance.
What is the maximum operating temperature of the 608 RS hybrid bearing?
The maximum operating temperature is 220°C, making it suitable for demanding thermal conditions.
Can TOJO customize hybrid bearings?
Yes. TOJO can evaluate material, dimensions, cage, seal, lubrication, precision and operating-environment requirements.
