A practical choice for anyone replacing a worn square-taper bottom bracket on a 68 mm English-threaded frame and wanting a cost-conscious sealed cartridge solution.
This bottom bracket is a sealed square-taper cartridge designed for frames with a 68 mm bottom bracket shell and BC 1.37 x 24T English threading on both sides. The 116 mm axle suits compatible square-taper cranksets, making it a sensible replacement when an existing cartridge is worn or requires servicing.
The steel cup-and-tube body and boron steel axle provide a hard-wearing construction for everyday riding, commuting and practical MTB use. The enclosed bearing assembly helps keep the replacement neat and straightforward, while the phosphated cups and black axle finish complete a functional, no-nonsense part.
Before ordering, check your frame shell width, thread standard, crank interface and required axle length. This is a replacement bottom bracket for square-taper cranks; it is not intended for HollowTech II, press-fit or other crank interfaces.
