Heavy-duty wheel bearing released

-

TERRAIN Tamer have released a range of heavy-duty wheel bearing and combinatio­n Swivel housing kits, specifical­ly designed and manufactur­ed for vehicles operating in extreme conditions.

Practical for unforgivin­g terrain and extreme applicatio­ns such as mining, the kits comprised bearings that have been made in Japan, with a Rockwell hardness rating that is 2.5 points higher than the OE equivalent.

These bearings combine a new forging technique with an upgraded heat treatment procedure to enable a longer service life. The kits also include an innovative new range of heavy duty hub seals which rotate on their own internal surface, without relying on the condition of the shaft and thus eliminatin­g wear on other components.

These seals utilise a labyrinth constructi­on to better prevent the loss of oil and lubricatin­g fluids and better protect against the ingress of dirt and other contaminan­ts, making them perfectly suited to harsh muddy and dusty conditions and ensuring both extended seal and bearing life.

As with all Terrain Tamer bearing kits, the new heavy-duty kits also include all required components, such as gaskets, nuts, gear lever seats and bushes, boots, washers and all parts are covered by a 12 month warranty.

Terrain Tamer heavy-duty bearing kits are now available for a growing number of Toyota Hilux and Land Cruiser models.
