Fork bushings - Kit SHO 48MM

SKF presents a revolutionary solution for demanding motorcycle suspensions: SKF composite PTFE fork bushings. These maintenance-free bushings combine the robustness of steel with the low friction of a self-lubricating PTFE layer.
The high mechanical strength steel body incorporates a PTFE-based sliding layer for smooth, low-friction operation. A thin bronze layer improves heat dissipation and bonds the bearing and sliding surfaces. The steel backing is copper-coated to protect against corrosion.
The composite fork bush eliminates the need for regular maintenance and ensures consistent performance. The PTFE-based sliding surface provides low friction, greater comfort and reduced wear.
The steel body ensures strength and reliable performance under various loads. SKF bushes operate smoothly over a wide temperature range, maintaining stability. The PTFE sliding surface minimises friction, offering low wear and friction.
During initial use, PTFE material is transferred, consolidating the exceptional properties of the bush. Designed to reduce maintenance and widely adopted in premium motorcycle applications worldwide, the SKF composite fork bush enjoys the trust of OEMs, workshops and end users. Enhance your ride with advanced SKF technology.
The kit is for one fork bar only
