Skateboard Hardware

 Skateboard hardware consists of the nuts and bolts that keep your trucks securely fastened to your skateboard deck, ensuring the overall stability and safety of your setup. These components are crucial for maintaining the integrity of your skateboard, as they hold the trucks in place, allowing you to perform tricks and maneuvers with confidence.

The standard skateboard hardware typically includes eight bolts and eight nuts, designed to fit through the pre-drilled holes in both the deck and the baseplate of the trucks. The hardware comes in various lengths, usually ranging from 7/8" to 1 1/2", to accommodate different deck thicknesses and the use of riser pads, which are added to prevent wheel bite and provide additional clearance.

High-quality skateboard hardware is typically made from durable materials like steel or titanium, which can withstand the stress and impact of skateboarding. The choice of material and construction quality ensures that the hardware remains reliable over time, even under the strain of intense skating sessions.
