SKF off-road wheel and fork protection

Italian distributor Innteck is offering a comprehensive range of motorcycle parts from Swedish manufacturer SKF, including the off-road riding upgrades seen here.
The SKF wheel seal kit for motorcycles provides protection for off-road wheel hub bearings from the intense contamination and water entry that can shorten the bearing life.


The unique design means increased sealing efficiency with reduced friction and very low power loss.
This special seal is composed of two components: one fixed non-rotating external plastic shield to protect from water, even at high pressure when the bike is cleaned, and a traditional rotating back seal made of the special SKF low-friction compound. The two-piece design allows for extreme durability because the wheel spacer is not grooved over time.


Also see here, the SKF mud scraper kit for motorcycle forks consists of a pair of ready to fit scrapers made with a new, smart design and with a low-friction plastic material.
The design results in reduced wear and increased fork seal life and performance. It effectively cleans dried mud from the stanchion and offers enhanced water protection without trapping it into the forks like other common seal protection devices. UV-resistant, it makes for reduced and consistent friction, and the user-friendly assembly means it can be installed "in-field" without fork or wheel removal.
