KP6A MAX-Design, Extended Inner Race, ABEC-3, radial suspension bearing - 3/8 x 7/8 x 5/16 -

Enduro bearings pioneered MAX type bearings over 20 years ago for bicycles to address the challenges associated with mountain bike pivots. These bearings have 35-40% more load capacity than standard radial bearings by utilizing a special design where the maximum number of balls are inserted into the bearing. The additional balls, combined with deep race grooves in these bearings for greater lateral support for the twisting and multi-directional forces associated with mountain bike pivots. This ABEC-3 bearing features deep-groove design races, with grade 10 balls and fiberglass seals for protection against the elements, while keeping the 90% fill of Almagard extra high pressure grease inside. This bearing features a double-extended inner race that eliminates the need for extra spacers to properly connect the linkage.

The primary use for this bearing is as a suspension pivot bearing.

The Enduro line of bearings are available in high-carbon chromium steel, 440C stainless steel, ceramic-hybrid and XD-15 with ceramic or stainless balls. Our bearings are always engineered with deepest groove races possible to accommodate the largest balls and feature dual-lip seals that ride in a micro-groove creating a full labyrinth to provide superior protection against the elements.
