Technologies

Sealed Cartridge Bearing
Using a sealed cartridge bearing results in a lighter and more responsive lever action. Smooth Rotation: By integrating a sealed cartridge bearing into the lever mechanism, lever rotation is smooth and effortless, making the transfer of force from thumb to lever more efficient. Increased Longevity: Sealed cartridge bearings provide excellent protection against contaminants such as dirt, dust, and moisture. As a result, the bearing lasts longer and maintains its smooth rotational characteristics over time, even in harsh conditions. Consistent Performance: Sealed cartridge bearings offer a consistent level of performance throughout their lifespan. This ensures the lever operates reliably and predictably, enhancing safety and performance.
