Description

Often overlooked, the fork seal plays a crucial role in your bike's suspension. The SKF mountain bike fork seal kit is engineered to minimize friction, improve suspension feel, and extend the life of your fork. These seals excel at keeping water and dirt out, ensuring your lubrication oil stays cleaner for longer. Crafted for high-end mountain bike forks, this kit fits various models and offers a versatile upgrade. Using the same self-lubricating compound found in motorcycle applications, these seals provide superior performance. Compatible with both original equipment and aftermarket fork oils, the SKF kit defends against water and dirt, extending the life of your fork and withstanding UV light exposure. By minimizing wear and air suction, it also extends your bike's operational life. The kit includes integrated oil seal-dirt scrapers, crush washers, and pre-impregnated foam rings, depending on your fork manufacturer, you may find two oil seals and two dirt scrapers. The integrated dust sealing lip prevents dirt from contaminating critical components, while the integrated oil sealing lip maintains optimal oil levels. The pre-impregnated foam ring further reduces friction, giving you a smoother, more responsive fork.
