Skf mtrx04 deep groove ball bearing 618 8 8 mm x 16 mm x 4 mm

Product Description MTRX04 618/8 deep groove ball bearing by SKF - indestructible thanks to Solid Oil The SKF MTRX04 is a deep groove ball bearing with 8 mm inner diameter, 16 mm outer diameter and 4 mm width. The corresponding ISO reference is 618/8. The bearing comes with an oil-impregnated polymer matrix called Solid Oil. Compared to conventional lubricants, this has the advantage of a larger oil reservoir, which also does not wash out and strengthens the sealing effect. This considerably extends the service life of the bearing, even if it is installed in places where dirt can quickly accumulate. This makes the MTRX04 ideal for use on Mountain bikes, for example in the headset, bottom bracket, pedal, rear derailleur, rear triangle or hubs. Constant bearing changes are now a thing of the past thanks to Solid Oil. Don't worry, just bike!

This leaves a very small gap between the polymer and the rolling elements or races, which allows the bearing parts to rotate freely. The polymer material has a sponge-like structure with millions of microscopic pores which retain the lubricating oil via surface tension. During operation, the polymer matrix releases the lubricating oil into the small gap and thus ensures effective lubrication. A bearing filled with Solid Oil contains two to four times the amount of oil of a normal bearing filled with grease. Due to their lifetime lubrication, they cannot and need not be re-lubricated. Solid Oil cannot be washed out and practically fills the entire free space in the bearing, minimising the amount of dirt and contaminants that can enter the bearing. In addition, the polymer matrix supports the integrated seals from the inside (e.g. during pressure washing) and thus additionally improves the sealing effect. The MTRX portfolio can be used in the following places in Mountain biking: Bearings in the rear triangle and swing arms of full suspension bikes as well as in derailleur pulleys, bottom bracket bearings, pedals, hubs and headsets. In short, everywhere where something moves on the bike and is exposed to rough dirt and continuous cleaning. To withstand these influences, the bearings are equipped with contact seals.
