Inline Hockey Wheels for Hockey Inline Skates – Grip, Speed & Precision
What Are Inline Hockey Wheels?
Inline hockey wheels are designed specifically for fast-paced inline hockey games, providing the grip, maneuverability, and durability needed on various surfaces. Mounted on hockey inline skates, these wheels are engineered for quick turns, rapid stops, and intense gameplay – mimicking the performance of ice hockey skates.
Key Features of Hockey Wheels
Depending on surface and play style, different wheels offer varying benefits:
Hardness (Durometer):
Indoor surfaces (e.g., Sport Court): Soft wheels (72A–76A) for better traction.
Outdoor play (e.g., asphalt): Harder wheels (82A–85A) for durability.
Diameter:
Common sizes range from 72 mm to 80 mm.
Smaller wheels = agility; larger wheels = speed.
Profile:
Rounded shapes enhance stability and control.
Some models offer conical profiles for faster cornering.
Hi-Lo Wheel Setup
Many hockey skates use a Hi-Lo setup:
Smaller wheels in front (e.g., 76 mm)
Larger wheels in back (e.g., 80 mm)
This configuration boosts acceleration and maintains a low center of gravity, perfect for fast, aggressive play.
