Comline wheel bearing and hub kit.

All Comline wheel hubs and bearings are manufactured to high standards and tight tolerances in class-leading production facilities that operate to ISO 9001 certification and in compliance with TÜV regulations.

Lightweight, high-carbon steel is utilised for manufacture.

This material is selected for its toughness, heat resistance and durability, which delivers excellent performance throughout the service life of the part.

Premium, long-life seals provide protection from contaminants, whilst high-performance grease offers effective lubrication across a broad range of temperatures – -20°C to 120°C – with corrosion protection and resistance to washout.

Comline product general manager, Miten Parikh, said: “Modern-day wheel bearings play a crucial role and must have the capacity to handle immense radial and/or axial loads.

“High-quality replacement parts are a necessity to ensure the long-term performance of a vehicle, and the Comline hub and bearing range is manufactured and tested to deliver such levels of quality.”

Complete kit

Each part number is delivered as a complete kit and contains all the relevant accessories technicians need to ensure a simple, easy fitting.

These vary depending on the respective application, but kits may contain nuts, split-pins, seals, caps, O-rings, circlips; lock-nuts, bolts, shields, spacers, paper-gaskets and washers.

Comline marketing and communications manager, Leigh Davies, said: “Hub assembly kits have been part of the Comline portfolio for some time, but it became increasingly apparent that our customers needed a comprehensive range of wheel bearings from the brand.”

The Comline hub and bearing range encompasses each product generation, from the simple, two-piece ‘Generation 0’ designs to more advanced dual-flange ‘Generation 3’ variants.

Generation 0

  • Traditional, two-piece bearings, which are less prevalent on modern vehicles.
  • Laborious installation, as manual pre-load, lubrication and sealing is required.
Generation 1
  • Double-row ball (driven wheels) or taper roller bearing (non-driven wheels).
  • Cartridge style design comprised of a complete inner and outer race, balls or rollers, cage and seal.
  • Pre-lubricated, pre-sealed and factory set pre-load.
  • Lifetime seal and lubrication.
Generation 2
  • Bearing with integrated hub for wheel and disc attachment or flange for stub axle fixing.
  • Double-row ball or taper roller bearings.
  • Pre-lubricated, pre-sealed and factory set pre-load.
  • Lifetime seal and lubrication.
  • Integration of ABS sensors on selected applications.
Generation 3
  • Dual-flange design with integrated hub for wheel and disc attachment and secondary flange for suspension fixing.
  • Double-row ball or taper roller bearings.
  • Pre-lubricated, pre-sealed and factory set pre-load.
  • Lifetime seal and lubrication.
  • Integrated ABS sensors on selected applications.
  • Lightweight, compact characteristics make Generation 3 designs increasingly popular with vehicle manufacturers.
