Kart Steering & Axle Components
Kart steering and axle components are crucial for precise handling and stability in karting. High-quality steering systems, including steering wheels, columns, and linkages, ensure accurate and responsive control. Lightweight and ergonomically designed steering wheels improve driver comfort and control, while precision-engineered columns and linkages reduce play and enhance steering accuracy.
Axle components, such as axles, hubs, and bearings, are vital for maintaining stability and efficient power transfer. High-strength axles, often made from materials like chrome-moly steel, provide durability and withstand the stresses of racing. Properly aligned and balanced axles ensure smooth rotation and minimise vibration, improving traction and handling.
Hubs and bearings reduce friction and support the axle, contributing to smooth and efficient power transfer from the engine to the wheels. Precision-machined hubs and high-quality bearings reduce wear and extend component life.
Together, these components enhance the kart's responsiveness, stability, and overall performance, allowing for sharper cornering and better control on the track.
