Masuma has expanded its range of transmission and chassis components with new wheel hub bearings.
Wheel bearings are critical elements of the hub assembly, ensuring smooth and quiet wheel rotation. Their quality directly affects vehicle rolling resistance (coasting ability) and the overall durability of the hub unit.
Masuma Wheel Bearings
Masuma wheel bearings are engineered to match OEM geometry precisely, guaranteeing proper press-fit installation in the hub and long service life. Masuma produces wheel bearings in different designs:
- Radial ball bearings – deliver smooth and precise wheel rotation, making them ideal for passenger cars.
- Cylindrical roller bearings – designed to withstand higher loads, making them the optimal choice for heavy-duty vehicles and demanding operating conditions.
Depending on the OEM specification for a particular vehicle model, the bearings are available in single-row or double-row configurations.
All Masuma wheel bearings are manufactured from high-quality materials to ensure maximum durability and reliability:
- Rollers, balls, and races are made of high-carbon chromium steel GCr15, offering strength and wear resistance.
- Shell Gadus S2 V100 3 grease is used to minimize friction and reduce wear.
- The NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber) seal ring protects the bearings against dirt, moisture, and corrosion.
Masuma offers a wide range of wheel bearings for various vehicle applications — check availability for your car using the Masuma Parts Finder.
