Skate Bearings - Question 5

Are Ceramic Balls of Any Benefit in the 608 bearing?

Ceramic hybrid bearings are relatively new technology. Provided the ceramic hybrid bearings also have a non metallic cage and are grease lubricated you should get extended life from them. If the cage is a standard steel cage, the ceramic balls may damage the cage quite quickly.
