Continental has added to its range of high quality steering components with inner tie rods, track rod ends and steering boots joining the already popular line-up. The new parts cover a wide range of applications including the latest electric vehicles.

These new parts offer mechanical strength, reliable operation and a precision fit, backed by a full five-year guarantee, something which no other manufacturer is able to match. This enables automotive professionals to carry out their repair jobs safely and reliably. 

Inner tie rods are mounted between the steering gear and track rod end and ensure agility, flexibility and driving comfort. The track rod end transfers the track rod’s radial forces to the steering knuckles. This is what makes the wheels turn in accordance with the driver’s steering movements. The quality and precision of this ball joint can therefore be instantly felt every time the steering wheel is turned. Continental track rod ends come with a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) boot and a special coating for maximum robustness, a long lifetime and optimum corrosion protection. 

The steering boot seems like a very simple component at first glance, but it is also immensely important for safety. These rubber boots protect the steering gear from dirt that might otherwise enter the joint. Moisture that could wash out the lubricant and thus impair operation is also effectively kept out. Continental boots are always supplied with the requisite mounting clamps.

The steering components from Continental offer both motorists and workshop professionals a number of crucial benefits:

• Exact fit – precisely manufactured metal parts and threads ensure perfect installation 
• Excellent durability – hardened, corrosion-resistant coatings protect against wear 
• Maximum robustness – resistant materials to withstand even the most extreme conditions

• Guaranteed quality – five-year guarantee for registered workshops 
• Top service – free installation instructions, technical hotline and clear assembly videos in the Continental Product Information Center (PIC).
