Technology: maintenance-free universal joint bearings

摘要

Visualise a road stretching 25 times round the earth. That stretch equals 1 million kilometres, the new maintenance-free service life recorded by SKF for universal joint bearings on drive shafts. Th is long service life is especially important in larger trucks. The latest SKF universal joint bearing concept makes it possible for trucks to meet the increasingly tough maintenance requirements of haulage firms and other truck operators and at the same time provide benefits to the environment. A long service life represents a reassuring safety margin for the haulage firm, its customers and for the drivers.
