ARI- THE ORIGINAL FORK OIL SEALS, custom-made for your fork Ariete 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. This 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. The 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. Oil 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. Our 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. Although the cost of XNBR is almost twice that of NBR, the sophisticated technology used to make our oil seals enables us to put them 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.

13922/BOX = 12 x 13922 ARI-CARE ARI-CARE BOX --> ARI-CARE DISPLAY, click here Ariete have developed and produced the ARI-CARE line which can be used to extend the life of your ARI- original XNBR elastomer fork oil seals. Made to enhance the durability, smoothness, and overall performance of your seals. ARI-CARE is made up of two products made for specific jobs. For best results, you need to make sure all mud, sand etc are removed from the forks, then follow these two easy steps: STEP1: Stems PREPARATION Pour just a few drops of STEP 1 cleaner onto a clean cloth, then wipe evenly over the fork stems and fork seals to remove any impurities. STEP2: PROTECTION and TREATMENT of rubber parts.
- Place the spout of STEP 2 sachet in contact with the oil seals and squeeze out a few drops onto the rubber surface, then spread evenly across the rubber part. Remove any excess with a clean cloth.
- Repeat the above step on the fork stems.

ARIMER: Mixed open and closed-cell polyurethane foam. The unique combination of both an open and closed cell creates the perfect formula; the open cells absorb and retain the lubricating fluid whilst the closed cells ensure an excellent elastic return. Working in tandem, the closed cells release the fluid from the open cells, improving the lubrication of the fork tube overall leaving a smoother action.
