Uses a graphite-rich compound with resistance to abrasion, to high temperatures, and more complex lubricants with numerous additives\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003eARI- THE ORIGINAL FORK OIL SEALS, custom-made for your fork\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAriete fork oil seals are different! The quality of their execution is matched by the unique nature of the material used: the carboxylated elastomer known as XNBR.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis compound offers unique characteristics of resistance to abrasion, to high temperatures, and to the complex lubricants with numerous additives, which are used in modern forks as fitted to motorcycles and scooters.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe reciprocating action of the fork tube against the seal subjects it to a notable degree of abrasion, which is complicated by the heat generated as a result of hydraulic displacement within the fork, plus the friction of the components involved. This mechanical wear and tear leads to accelerated ageing of the rubber which is also obliged to deal with the chemical action of the various additives in the lubricant.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOil seals are normally made from a nitrile rubber, known as NBR. This is used because it is cheap, and plentiful, not because NBR is the best material for the job.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAriete technical staff have accumulated 70 years of experience in the rubber industry, and have spent many years looking for a better material for the manufacture of oil seals.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAlthough the cost of XNBR is almost twice that of NBR, the sophisticated technology used to make Ariete oil seals enables them to be put on the market at highly competitive prices. In this way, the Ariete Customer enjoys the benefits of a very high quality product, which satisfies the most demanding requirements, at a competitive price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eARISIL special oil seal lubricant ARI fork oil seals are made from a rubber compound specifically developed to work with the lubricants used in front forks, with all their various additives. This compound is completely different from that normally used for rotating shaft seals, since the physical environment inside a fork with its reciprocating movement, and the specialist lubricants, are completely different. Ariete have designed ARI oil seals with a variety of lip profiles to make them longer lasting, while reducing to a minimum the friction effect against the moving shaft. Over the years, Ariete have discovered the key role of a separating lubricant between the fork tube and the rubber of the oil seal to reduce to a minimum the surface friction, without affecting the function of the oil seal. After exhaustive testing, Ariete have chosen a lubricant which is produced in the USA, and devised specifically as a rubber\/metal lubricant for mechanical components used in the NASA space program. The advantage of this special grease, which they call ARISIL, is that it extends the life of the oil seal, and helps it retain its vital characteristics of flexibility and chemical resistance. For this reason, every set of ARI FORK OIL SEALS contains a single dose sachet of ARISIL, sufficient to lubricate the two oil seals supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eManufacturer Part No. (MPN):\u003c\/b\u003e ARI.117\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarcode:\u003c\/b\u003e 8051513536311\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable class='\"attributesSpecification\"'\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class='\"label\"'\u003eHeight:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class='\"value\"'\u003e10.5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class='\"label\"'\u003eInside Diameter:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class='\"value\"'\u003e58.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class='\"label\"'\u003eOuter Dia:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class='\"value\"'\u003e48\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class='\"label\"'\u003eType:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class='\"value\"'\u003eDC4Y\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eFitment Summary\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCompatible with \u003cb\u003e431\u003c\/b\u003e models (yearly).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class='\"fitmentsummary\"'\u003e\n\u003cli title='\"Compatible' aprilia models\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAprilia:\u003c\/b\u003e MXV 450\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli title='\"Compatible' honda models\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHonda:\u003c\/b\u003e CRE450 F-R, CRF250 RA, CRF250 RB, CRF250 RC, CRF250 RD, CRF250 RE, CRF450 R, CRF450 RD, CRF450 RE, CRF450 RF, CRF450 RG, CRF450 RX, CRF450 XR, CRM500 R\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli title='\"Compatible' husqvarna models\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHusqvarna:\u003c\/b\u003e CR 125, SMR 449, TC 250, TC 449, TE 250, WR 125\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli title='\"Compatible' kawasaki models\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eKawasaki:\u003c\/b\u003e KLX 450R, KX 125L4, KX 125M1, KX 125M2, KX 125M3, KX 125M4, KX 125M5, KX 125M6, KX 250 Enduro F, KX 250EX, KX 250F, KX 250L4, KX 250M1, KX 250M2, KX 250N1, KX 250 Offroad F, KX 250R, KX 250R1, KX 450 Enduro F, KX 450 R 4T, KXE 450F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli title='\"Compatible' suzuki models\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSuzuki:\u003c\/b\u003e DRZ 400SM, RMZ 250K6, RMZ 250L3, RMZ 250L4, RMZ 250L5, RMZ 250L6, RMZ 250L7, RMZ 250L8, RMZ 250L9, RMZ 250M0, RMZ 250M1, RMZ 250M2, RMZ 250M3, RMZ 250M4, RMZ 250M5, RMZ 250M6, RMZ 450L3, RMZ 450L4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli title='\"Compatible' tm racing models\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTM Racing:\u003c\/b\u003e EN 125 Enduro, EN 250 Enduro, EN 250F, EN 250 F KYB Fork, EN 300 Enduro, EN 300 Fi ES, EN 450 Enduro, EN 450 Enduro F, EN 530 Enduro, EN 530 Enduro F, EN150 144 Enduro, MX 125, MX 125 KYB Fork, MX 250 Brembo front caliper, MX 250F, MX 250 F Brembo front caliper, MX 3004t, MX 300 Brembo front caliper 2T, MX 300 Brembo front caliper KYB Fork 2T, MX 450F, MX 450Fi, MX 530F, MX 530Fi, MX150 144 Brembo caliper, SMM 125 Black Dream, SMM 450 Black Dream, SMM 530 Black Dream, SMR 125 Brembo front caliper, SMR 450F, SMR 530F, SMR 530Fi, SMX 450F, SMX 450Fi, SMX 530Fi, SMX 660Fi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli title='\"Compatible' yamaha models\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eYamaha:\u003c\/b\u003e WR 250, WR 250F, WR 250FT, WR 250FV, WR 250FW, WR 250R, WR 250X, WR 450FA, WR 450FT, WR 450FV, WR 450FW, WR 450FX, WR 450FY, WR 450FZ, YZ 125A2, YZ 125B2, YZ 125D2, YZ 125S1, YZ 125T1, YZ 125V1, YZ 125W1, YZ 125X1, YZ 125Y1, YZ 125Z1, YZ 250A3, YZ 250B3, YZ 250D3, YZ 250F4, YZ 250F5, YZ 250F6, YZ 250F7, YZ 250F8, YZ 250F9, YZ 250S2, YZ 250T2, YZ 250V2, YZ 250W2, YZ 250Y2, YZ 250Z2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ariete","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57714026185086,"sku":"1800117","price":23.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/9191\/9742\/files\/forkseal_01_47c06837-b82e-414b-818e-29e1598dbe5f.jpg?v=1784734457","url":"https:\/\/www.motobench.co.uk\/products\/1800117-ari-117-pair-of-fork-dust-covers-48-x-58-2-x-8-510-5-dc4y","provider":"MotoBench","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
