“This is a result of our long-term engineering partnership with Scania. Both companies are committed to the highest levels of sustainability, in the work we do and the solutions we provide.”
SKF says the bearings allow for longer maintenance intervals, reducing the total cost of ownership for truck owners. Deliveries will start in the second quarter of 2015.
Part of the SKF BeyondZero portfolio, SKF’s high pressure valve stem seals are designed to withstand the extreme pressure levels generated by modern down-sized and turbo-boosted engines.
