What we make
Three product families from one factory: rolling bearings, lightweighting parts for vehicles, and automotive small parts.
-
Bearings
Rolling bearings in more than 500 types and sizes across precision grades. Our main product is the thrust tapered roller bearing for vehicle steering.
-
Lightweight automotive parts
Hollow and reduced-diameter parts that keep the original requirements and take weight out of the vehicle.
-
Automotive small parts
Bushings, washers, worms, pins and shafts, and spring assemblies.
- Full-complement tapered rollers, pure rolling contact
- Heavy axial loads, insensitive to shock, high rigidity
- Friction seal, greased for life, maintenance-free
- Precision-forged washers: process patented with the FAW Technical Center
Our main product: thrust tapered roller bearings for steering
Full-complement, sealed and greased for life, used in the steering mechanisms of all types of vehicles. The washers are precision forged by a process we developed with the FAW Technical Center and patented: the metal fibre flow stays continuous, so the washers are stronger and the bearing lasts longer.
