ABSTRACT:
A method of removal and insertion of a bearing insert from a skate wheel is performed utilizing a bearing insert tool. The bearing insert has a central axial bore corresponding to the diameter of a central axial bore of a spacing element. An annular groove is formed on an inner circumference of the spacing element. The bearing insert tool has a shaft containing spring activated nipples on a distal end from a head portion. A button on the tool operates the spring. To remove a bearing insert the button is depressed retracting the nipples. The shaft is then inserted within the central axial bore of the bearing insert and spacing element. The nipples are released and allowed to engage the annular groove. Force is exerted in an axial direction away from the skate wheel causing the bearing insert and spacing element to be removed from the hub of the skate wheel.
