About GELWERK Center Support Bearing

A center support bearing (carrier or intermediate bearing) is used in vehicles with two-piece driveshafts. It supports and aligns the driveshaft, reduces vibration and noise through rubber isolation, and allows flexing to relieve stress on the drivetrain.

Functions

  • Provides stable support for long driveshafts.
  • Maintains alignment and protects universal joints.
  • Dampens vibration and noise for smoother operation.
  • Extends drivetrain service life by reducing stress on components.

Application

GELWERK center support bearings are widely used in pickup trucks, buses, medium & heavy trucks, and agricultural machinery equipped with two-piece driveshafts, for both OEM and aftermarket applications. For other vehicle types, different driveline bearing designs may be required to meet specific load and operating conditions. If you are not sure which type fits your application, please contact our technical team via WhatsApp, email, or inquiry form.
