MOOG hub assemblies now feature an innovative roll-form construction that helps ensure consistent, optimal bearing preload for significantly enhanced durability and increased load capacity. Each unit also features precisely matched, high quality bearing raceways and rolling elements engineered for superior performance with minimal noise and vibration under a full range of operating conditions.
A number of additional, application-specific enhancements further increase hub durability and service life through exceptional protection against moisture, dirt and other contaminants. These include premium molded ABS shield and socket connections that also promote a highly stable system signal. Each MOOG hub assembly also comes complete with premium quality wheel studs treated with a protective coating to prevent corrosion, allowing for easier removal and accurate torque load on the wheel nuts.
“These important enhancements to MOOG hub assemblies reflect our commitment to innovation and best-in-class product design and performance,” said Bruce Reau, general manager, global wheel-end and driveline, Federal-Mogul Motorparts. “Automotive service providers and their customers can be confident that MOOG hub assemblies represent the latest and best technologies for each vehicle model.”
