Nukeproof Horizon Headset
The Horizon Headset from Nukeproof comes from a new range that uses
titanium coated race bearings with stainless steel balls. The titanium
coating is applied using “Physical Vapor Deposition” which means that
the material is vaporized in a vacuum environment and then deposited on
the bearing races as a composition coating.
This process allows the structure, density and stoichiometry of the
coating to be controlled allowing the exact attributes in our design
brief to be achieved. The coating is 0.000118” thick and has a molecular
bond to the bearing races so it won’t wear off or corrode. The bearing
is ABEC 5 certified which means that it has passed tests which include
ID and OD tolerance’s, roundness of ball, the trueness of faces &
surfaces as well as noise testing at high RPM making it the perfect
bearing for use in a headset.
These bearings have been designed for use in the harshest weathers and
have gone through various tests by the Nukeproof team during development
so they are 100% confident in their performance. To back this up
Nukeproof are offering a 5-year warranty so you can rest easy knowing
your purchase will be a good investment.
