Re:Bearings - 12:40 15 Feb 11 Who are they made by if you don't mind me asking? A great talk from @davecarroll at #DigitalSurrey tonight. He's the writer of the United Breaks Guitars song and a great talker - Twitter Status

Re:Bearings - 13:16 15 Feb 11 No manufacturer's markings. Only markings are ABEC 5 and 608ZZ. None of the bearings I have bought since the 1980's have any manufacturer's name. Is it important, and if it is, how can the manufacturer be identified. I was always under the impression that ABEC was an American engineering standard and that all ABEC marked bearings were manufactured to that standard.

Re:Bearings - 13:19 15 Feb 11 No worries. If it's not printed on there's no real way of knowing.

Correct, ABEC is a standard of bearing tolerance which is essential in engineering but don't get me started on it's use within skating
