Advances in Ball Joint Seal Technology
ATEK Engineering
ATEK's R&D team has developed a new thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) boot compound that extends ball joint service life by up to 30% in high-temperature and high-contamination environments.
The new boot material maintains flexibility from -40°C to +150°C, making it suitable for both Arctic fleet operations and Middle Eastern desert conditions.
This technology is being rolled out across our commercial vehicle and heavy-duty ball joint range starting Q2 2025.
