E-Type bearings, available in sizes ranging from 3/16 to 3/4 and metric sizes, are widely acknowledged as being the best bearings for these demanding applications. So what are the key design features which make the difference?
To the naked eye, E-Type bearings show their superiority as they have a super finish polish which helps to minimize friction, ensuring smooth rotation in all directions, enabling the most balanced car with predictable and enhanced performance. Their proprietary PTFE liner reduces side-to-side movement and deflection under load, along with the capacity to increase a radial load rating by up to 35% compared to other bearings.
This liner also helps to increase the maximum operating temperature of the bearings from 121ºC (249ºF) up to 180ºC (356ºF) which is a better option for a component usually situated close to a heat source.
In addition to the superior performance of the NMB E-Type bearings is Carter Americas can supply all the specialist tools required to remove inferior or used bearings, replace with better ones and test to ensure optimal performance. For example, a Swivel…
