Solutions for motorcycles

Energy efficiency and reduction of CO2 emissions have become increasingly important for motorcycles. All the while still without sacrificing service life, reliability and safety. The requirements differ depending on if the bearings are in the transmission, steering, or wheels of the motorcycle.

Before you start series production, we ensure the best solution for you with calculations, simulations and tests. Take advantage of the experience of CW experts - we will be happy to advise you.

Typical applications

Wheel bearings

Significant energy can be saved at this bearing point on your motorcycles! On the one hand, the ball bearing must have a seal that reliably protects against splash water and dust. On the other hand, the sealing friction should be kept as low as possible for the rotating outer ring.

We will be happy to advise you on an optimum combination of sealing effect and energy efficiency or recommend a grease matched to the application that provides special protection against wear. For maximum protection against contamination, we offer solid lubricant as an option. The polymer matrix lubricates the bearing through its movement. At the same time, it provides 100% protection against dust or splash water ingress.

Transmission and motor

Long service life, reliability and high energy transmission are required while minimizing vibration and noise. Our specialists look at the entire system and develop a solution that best fits your needs.

Our flexible product range always offers the right answer to your requirements for installation space, friction reduction and wear resistance. For optimum protection against wear, the bearings can also be carbonitrided, for example.

Steering and chassis

Alongside the steering, the rear swing arm is one of the most important bearing points of the chassis. Here, the bearings must be load-bearing, robust and safe. Noise is also not tolerated. A frequent cause is small particles penetrating the bearing. Which seal best protects against this? Just ask the experts at CW Bearing.

Our sealing designs can be combined with any of our ball bearing sizes. If that's not enough to meet your requirements we will develop a special sealing solution for you.
