SKF hub caps are setting a new standard in protecting wheel hub systems for heavy-duty commercial vehicles.
These innovative caps provide a crucial seal for wheel bearings, offering exceptional resistance against impact damage, weather, chemicals, UV radiation, and ozone. Additionally, they guard against ricocheting rocks and flooded shipping docks, ensuring maximum durability.
SKF hub caps are designed with user-friendly features such as a fusion-bonded oil level sight window and pre-assembled plated bolts, making assembly and operation straightforward. The caps’ robust yet lightweight construction ensures the extended service life of bearing components.
Key features include an embedded aluminum ring for even load distribution, a molded pressure ridge for improved sealing, and a center-fill vented plug-in design. The side fill plug, equipped with an O-ring and a magnet to trap metallic particles, provides extra leak protection. Patented “umbrella” style valve seals further prevent contaminants from entering.
These hub caps are compatible with all common lubricants and can be integrated with central tire inflation systems, making them indispensable for maintaining the performance and longevity of heavy-duty vehicle wheel hubs.
