New NTN-SNR elaboration for Jaguar

29/09/18

NTN-SNR Roulements is honoured to have been chosen by Jaguar Special Vehicle Operation (SVO) service to participate in the XE SV Project 8 - very high performance sports version of the XE saloon. 

To meet the specifications – a maximum reduction in the weight of the bearings, high reliability, high rigidity of mounting and a reduction in losses caused by friction – NTN-SNR drew upon its expertise in aeronautics and suggested ceramic ball bearings.

Participation in this project demonstrates the confidence that Jaguar Land Rover has placed in NTN-SNR, who is one of their major suppliers. It is also a demonstration of ability of NTN-SNR, a European leader in wheel bearings, to meet high-tech niche orders by using all its know-how and commitment to quality, reliability and safety with the prospect of later applying it to mass-produced vehicles.
