Generally speaking, a bearing is a device that is used to enable rotational or linear movement, while reducing friction and handling stress. The axle shaft bearing allows the wheels to rotate with minimal function, and they also support the vehicle’s weight. In an axle mount, radial loading is when driving in a straight line, while thrust load is present on the axle shaft bearing when the vehicle goes around a corner. To handle these loads and make wheel rotating easy and smooth, the bearing should be made of high-quality materials that meet OE standards. .
Made of premium materials and designed to provide ultimate load carrying capability, the Centric Axle Shaft Bearing is a perfect replacement for a worn out or damaged part. This product is designed to operate in either city or highway driving. The bearing minimizes friction and handling stress making the wheels rotate freely. Sealed on both sides, the bearing also includes an inner magnetic ABS encoder seal.
