Bauer TUUK Lightspeed 5 Carbon Edge 238 mm Steel Blades (Used)

The Bauer TUUK LS5 Carbon Edge Runners/Blades are high-performance hockey skate blades designed for the Bauer Lightspeed Edge holder. Skate Size Compatibility for 238 mm LS5 Runners: The 238 mm Bauer TUUK LS5 Carbon Edge Runner fits specific skate sizes based on the Bauer Lightspeed Edge holder. The size of the runner is determined by a three-digit number printed on the outside of the white holder on the bottom of the skate. Here’s how the 238 mm size corresponds to skate sizes: Bauer Skate Sizes: Fit 1, Fit 2, or D Width Skates: Size 238 mm typically fits Bauer skates in the size 4 to 4.5 range (e.g., 4, 4.5). For example, a 4.5 Fit 2 skate would use a 238 mm runner (often marked as size 04 on the holder). Fit 3 or EE Width Skates: These require the next size up, so a 4.5 Fit 3 or EE width skate would typically use a 246 mm runner, not 238 mm. Bauer and CCM holders are not interchangeable, so confirm the skate has a Bauer Lightspeed Edge holder, even on pro stock CCM skates, as some may use Bauer holders. Material: Soft inner core stainless steel with a carbon coating for enhanced edge retention and bite properties. Profile: 10-foot radius, pro-preferred for immediate usability, though it can be profiled with minimal material removal. Height: Higher steel profile compared to earlier models, providing a greater angle of attack and longer sharpening life. Compatibility: Designed specifically for Bauer Lightspeed Edge holders (used on Bauer skates from 2013-2022). The trigger release system allows for quick and easy blade replacement, with a tool included for removal if needed. Performance Features: Soft inner core enhances edge quality and sharpness. Carbon coating improves edge retention and grip for better control and turns. Increased height supports sharper turns and better attack angles, ideal for competitive play.
