Frasle Mobility has officially launched the Nakata brand in the UK market, introducing a trusted automotive name with over 70 years of experience. Known for its innovation, quality, and reliability, Nakata is highly regarded by mechanics in Brazil and is now bringing its expertise to the UK. The launch begins with an extensive range of high-quality wheel bearings, covering all three generations of wheel bearing technology, and promises to offer significant benefits to UK customers.
Key Highlights:
- Nakata brand officially launched in the UK by Frasle Mobility
- Over 70 years of automotive industry experience
- Initial product range: wheel bearings covering three generations
- Bearings designed for durability, performance, and safety
- Future plans include participation in Automechanika Birmingham 2025
- Comprehensive steering and suspension range to be introduced in 2026
The wheel bearing range from Nakata includes three generations of technology, each catering to different vehicle needs. Generation 1 bearings, available with ball or tapered rollers, reduce friction between the axle and hub and are ideal for older or heavy-duty vehicles due to their durability and adjustability. Generation 2 bearings feature integrated hub assemblies and built-in seals, providing enhanced protection against contaminants and reducing maintenance requirements. The most advanced, Generation 3 bearings, are fully integrated units with built-in sensors that monitor wheel speed, supporting critical vehicle safety systems such as ABS and traction control.
Manufactured from high-strength materials and treated with advanced heat processes, Nakata’s wheel bearings offer exceptional durability, reduced vibration, and smoother operation. The use of premium lubrication ensures minimal friction, contributing to longer life and better overall performance, ultimately leading to less maintenance for customers.
Toby Whewell, Sales and Marketing Director at Frasle Mobility in the UK, expressed his enthusiasm: “It’s with great pleasure that we continue to bolster our comprehensive aftermarket offering and introduce the renowned Nakata brand to the UK market, starting with our high-performance wheel bearings. Nakata’s reputation for reliability and innovation is unmatched, and we’re excited to share these benefits with UK customers. Throughout the year, we’ll continue to showcase more of Nakata’s strengths, particularly at Automechanika Birmingham 2025, where we look forward to connecting with customers and demonstrating the full potential of the range.”
The Nakata wheel bearing range is now available for dispatch from Frasle Mobility’s sites in Doncaster and Belfast. Looking ahead, Frasle Mobility plans to introduce more Nakata products to the UK market, with a comprehensive steering and suspension range set to launch in 2026. This expansion reflects Nakata’s commitment to providing reliable, high-quality automotive solutions, leveraging Frasle Mobility’s global resources to meet the needs of UK mechanics and vehicle owners.
