SKF Aftermarket driveline products for smooth transmission operations

World-class technology for driveshafts, CV-joints and boot kits

SKF components for transmission, driveshafts and constant velocity joints embody world-class technology to reduce overall friction and maintain an efficient engine system.Our product range of over 2400 kits cover up to 73% of European car parc, including thousands of products for Audi, BMW, Citroën, Fiat, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Toyota, Volkswagen, and many others. SKF pre-assembled and greased CV-Joint and boot kits ensure complete wheel joint rotation is possible without damage occurring to the boot.Aftermarket kits include all components necessary to carry out a complete repair. Extra safety components (circlips, washers etc.) are always included inside the kits to ensure correct repair.

Driveshaft kits

Efficient and lasting power transmission

Driveshafts are used in cars equipped with an independent suspension system. The role of this component is to transfer engine torque or power from the gearbox to the wheel hub at a constant rate without variations in friction or play. They need to be strong enough to bear the stress without creating additional inertia through the weight of the shaft. Although designed to last the lifetime of the vehicle, often harsh road or weather conditions can prematurely damage them, especially due to their exposed position. About two percent of all vehicles need at least one of their driveshafts replaced during any given year. In Europe alone, that equates to four million cars annually.

Features and performance

Gearbox side protection cap: seals and protects internal components effectively.
Pre-assembled and greased CV-Joint and boot: ensure complete wheel joint rotation is possible without damage occurring to the boot.
High quality metal clamps: for excellent sealing capacity.
Robust and rigid steel shafts: provide long-lasting, efficient torque from the engine.
Metal circlip, spring clips, dashed springs: safety components to ensure a safe and complete repair.
Precision engineered driveshaft splines: ensure stable connection to the CV-Joints and easy installation.
Low friction washer: protects the metal flange and the gearbox side CV-joint for longer service life.

SKF offer

SKF driveshafts are new, not remanufactured and meet OE standards.
No deposits are required to simplify processes and reducing costs for mechanics and distributors.
Each kit includes a pre-assembled driveshaft, inner and outer CV-Joints, boots, clamps, nuts and grease.
Precise driveshaft assembly, quality control and testing carried out to ensure material and performance.

CV-joint kits

Smooth, quiet and built to last

The CV joints transfer torque from the transmission to the wheels at a constant speed, while accommodating the motion of the suspension. Their exposed position on the vehicle mean that regular checks are necessary to keep your vehicle safe.

Features and performance

Phosphatizing surface treatment: provides excellent protection from corrosion.
Wheel side stem threading and splines: formed using special manufacturing processes to ensure strength and long service life.
Expert interface management: ensures wheel hub and CV-Joints are closely calibrated for maximum performance.
CV-Joint bell is one solid part: means no welding lines for a strong, robust and reliable product.
A pre-assembled metal or plastic dust cover: offers extra protection from contamination.
High quality molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) lithium based grease: lubricates, protects and tolerates extreme temperatures.
Precision forged wheel side cage: ensures the driveshaft fits precisely but can be easily installed.
Pre-assambled ABS ring: included on the outside of the CV-Joint bell.
Gearbox side tripod: facilitates CV-Joint repairs if the bell is not damaged.
Rigorous testing procedures: SKF CV-Joints are built to last. They include material, endurance and life cycle ensuring long-lasting and optimum performance.

Boot kits

Excellent protection from everyday wear and tear

Boots retain grease in place and protect the CV-Joints from dirt and water ingress which can cause damage or erosion over time.

Features and performance

Latest models made from robust thermoplastic material: provide longer lasting protection.
OE quality material and dimensions: ensure maximum performance for the vehicle at hand.
Extra safety metal components inside kits (nuts/bolts, circlips, spring clips, dished springs etc.): deters the re-use of old parts, which can compromise safety.
High-quality molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) lithium-based grease bags: provide excellent lubrication, anti-corrosion qualities and tolerance to high loads and extreme temperatures.
Special SKF "folding" design with extended ridges: allow hard vehicle cornering without squashing and damaging the boot.
Wider external lip diameter: facilitates boot cutting and helps keep clamps in place for longer service life.
High quality stretchy rubber-compound: replace easily without removing the CV-Joint from the shaft or the shaft from the vehicle.
Multi-packs: 12 piece-packs available for passenger car range facilitating storage and saving costs.
