Apex Fingerboard Wheels - Shorty 85D ATP - ABEC-9 Stealth - "Inferno Red"

What does 85D mean
85D is the hardest compound in the Apex range, with a low friction grip for a slick and smooth feel, here in our smallest Shorty profile.

Bearings and the Bearing Pocket
ABEC-9 Stealth bearings are our premium shielded and greased bearings: smooth, completely silent, and locked in by the Bearing Pocket. They don't free spin the way Ultraspin bearings do; in actual riding they're extremely responsive with a very free roll. The Bearing Pocket is a custom lock cast into the wheel that stops the bearing backing out unless you use a bearing press, so you can run the locknut fully tight without binding the roll.

Blend and Cast
Every Apex wheel in our urethane line is made in New York. We blend our own custom compounds and pour each wheel, the wheels are precision cut here in NY, and we press the bearings and pack every set in our Rochester shop.

Care

• These wheels have a low level squeak when you powerslide or do a sharp turn.

What is the D scale? How does it compare to skateboard wheel hardness?
We measure our compounds on the Shore D scale. As a reference point, our softest 61D is equivalent to 101A on the skateboard A scale, and higher D numbers are harder.

Do these fit all fingerboard trucks?
Yes. Apex wheels fit all common fingerboard trucks.

What comes in a set?
Four wheels with bearings already pressed in, a capped storage tube, and a Teak Tuning sticker. Deck and trucks aren't included.

Are Apex wheels made in the USA?
