SKF kits reduce friction and power loss, prolong bearing life

Italian distributor INNTECK is celebrating a great victory for their sponsored rider, Giacomo Redondi of the Honda Red Moto World Enduro Team, who has already won the EJ class of the Enduro World Championship – with nearly half the season still to go.



His bike, a RED-MOTO CRF450R, is equipped with a special version of the Rekluse automatic clutch distributed by INNTECK, the CoreEXP Torq Drive. This special version of the product will be released next year. American manufacturer Rekluse has always been respected for developing and testing leading technologies, and this is a “further demonstration of how their technologies perform with the best riders and teams in the world and under the most severe conditions”, says INNTECK Director Maurizio Prati.
Redondi’s CRF450R Enduro also benefited from products made in Sweden by SKF - products such as a removable mud scraper kit to reduce fork seal contamination, fork seal kits developed to achieve superior sealing performance and a wheel seal kit to reduce friction, increase service intervals and prolong bearing life.


The SKF fork mud scraper kit effectively cleans dried mud from the stanchion, providing enhanced water and dirt protection, reducing wear on the fork seals, and delivering reduced and consistent friction, which extends their life and performance. Easily installed “in field” without fork or wheel removal, it has been developed to withstand heavy contamination and operate with a long stroke and at high speed.


SKF fork seal kits offer a low friction fork seal solution, which improves feel and comfort while increasing the rideability through better dirt exclusion – friction is reduced by over 20 percent.


SKF wheel seal kits are a low friction wheel seal solution withstanding harsh conditions, increasing the life of the bearing through increased sealing efficiency with reduced friction and power loss.
