No compromise on reliability
Transmissions do not tolerate poor quality components. They contain between 3 and 14 bearings, ensuring:
- the positioning and rotation of the shafts in relation to the transmission casing
- the synchronisation between shafts.
Extremely reliable, NTN in Europe bearings are designed to:
- ensures there is no backlash within the gearbox
- function in harsh environments: high temperatures, oil pollution, high loads, shaft deflection due to fluctuations in engine torque, accommodate poor lubrication due to oil leakage from the gearbox, etc.
- meet specific requirements such as load carrying capacity, performance, acoustics and precision of assembly, etc.

Driveline, in the words of our expert
In an environment that has many constraints such as: high temperatures, enclosed environments, oil contaminated with metal particles, "the bearing is critical for the life of the transmission". With such extreme conditions, reliability is the key word for SNR bearings. This is proven by our technical expertise, all our transmission bearings are designed and manufactured in our own factories for the original equipment market.
