Description
Description
This needle sleeve (HK4012B) is a high-quality OEM part designed for the timing drive assembly. It ensures smooth rotation and reduces friction within the engine's timing system, specifically supporting the camshaft or related drive components. As an original equipment manufacturer part, it guarantees precise fitment and long-term reliability for your engine.
Compatible with a wide range of models including the KTM 450/500 EXC-F, SX-F, and XC-F series from 2012-2026, as well as the 690 Enduro R and SMC R models from 2008-2026. It also fits Husqvarna 701 Enduro/Supermoto, FC/FE 450/501 models, and GasGas EC/MC 450F/500F variants. Additionally, it is used in specialized machines like the 450 Rally Replica and Vitpilen/Svartpilen 701.
Constructed with durable steel, this needle bearing is engineered to withstand high RPMs and thermal stress found in modern high-performance engines. The 40x47x12mm dimensions provide the exact clearance required for optimal timing drive performance. Replacing worn bearings is essential to prevent timing chain issues and maintain engine synchronization.
During installation, ensure the bearing is properly lubricated with engine oil or assembly lube. It is recommended to inspect this sleeve during major engine overhauls or when servicing the timing chain and camshaft. Using genuine OEM bearings prevents premature wear on mating surfaces and ensures the longevity of your powertrain.
