Part Description
SKF, Fork bushing kit 49 mm
Includes bushings for one fork slider. Order 2 kits for one motorcycle. - Fork tube diameter: 49.0mm - External Teflon Bushing Dimensions: 48X50X20mm - Internal Teflon Bushing Dimensions: 49X52X15mm - Fork Brand Showa SKF fork bushings combine the mechanical strength of steel with the low friction of a PTFE-based self-lubricating sliding layer. The intermediate thin bronze layer creates a strong bond between the backing and sliding surfaces and improves the dissipation of heat generated during operation. To protect the bearings from corrosion the steel backing is copper-plated. The PTFE-based sliding surface permits smooth low-friction operation for a plush riding feeling. During a short run phase there will be some transfer of PTFE material from the sliding contact surface to the counter face. After transfer the characteristic low friction and wear properties of these bushings will be achieved. - PTFE based low friction seal - Low stiction - No maintenance - Low friction under side load - High load carrying capacity - Temperature stable - Small operating clearance for improved guidance - Dimensions marked for quick identification
