Ride with confidence knowing the type of support you have beneath your feet. It’s designed with an extra thick mounting base and solid construction, no voids or gaps in the baseplate aluminum. The Atlas baseplate is made of A356/T6 forged aluminum. We designed the Atlas truck from the ground up. The axle is machined down to 8mm on the ends so it fits a standard wheel bearing size, creating a step which also conveniently eliminates the need for an inner speed ring. The 10mm core is located where the strength and stiffness is needed most, the center section of the hanger. Atlas has designed an 8mm to 10mm stepped axle design which has over 50% more steel in it than traditional 8mm truck axles. What does this mean for you? A stiff hanger that will resist bending, ensure proper load transfer, and deliver precise performance in your ride. The Atlas Hanger is designed with this same shape in mind. Beam theory shows that the I-beam shape is extremely effective in carrying bending and shear loads – there’s a reason you see people building skyscrapers with these. This provides secure support of the kingpin along its entire length so that the kingpin and baseplate act as one unit instead of two separate parts. As the kingpin nut is tightened the kingpin is pulled up into the tapered bore hole to deliver a self-centering, zero tolerance fit. The Atlas Kingpin is custom made to taper at a 1:20 ratio which allows it to fit snugly inside the precision tapered baseplate hole, which is the reason the kingpin head doesn’t sit flush. Slop in your kingpin assembly means you’re not getting the performance you deserve.
The Nylon6 material is a low friction, abrasion resistant material perfectly suited to this type of application. This pivot cup is self-cleaning, self-centering, and even threaded so you can remove it with your axle for cleaning and maintenance. The Atlas pivot cup is patent-pending technology, like nothing you’ve seen before. To achieve the precise control the Atlas truck provides, it was necessary to create a new breed of pivot cup. All this combines to provide a unique ride with maximum lean, consistent control, and a divey feel – just how we know you like it. This ball shape allows the hanger to turn with a full, unrestricted range of motion and doesn’t subject the pivot to stress from interference contact with the edge of the pivot cup. The Atlas Massive Ball Pivot delivers a 50% increase in load-bearing surface area, providing more precise control than traditional pivots and offering unparalleled turning ability. ATLAS 2-PIECE UNIVERSAL SKATE TOOL:ĭon’t settle for less. The 2-piece tool enables you got your griptape on the go as well! The slim profile of the tool keeps it from jabbing you when it’s in your pocket, while the bottle opener sets you up for success after the skate session.
#Atlas skateboarding install#
The angle makes it easy to install even the most particular wheels, like side set longboard wheels for example.
#Atlas skateboarding portable#
The axle nut socket is on a ingenious angle, making it much more versatile than other portable skate tools.
What can’t this thing do!? Okay, maybe it wouldn’t be able to make repairs on a space shuttle, but as far as skateboards go it’s got this on lock-down.
The Atlas 2-Piece Universal Skate Tool is crazy small, wicked portable, and is also a bottle opener.
