Wolf Tooth Headset EC44/40 Lower

The EC44/40 indicates an External Cup (EC) headset designed for a 44mm head tube inner diameter and a 40mm crown race diameter. This specific configuration is intended for frames using a 1.5-inch tapered steerer tube.

This headset is specifically built for harsh environments. It features dual-lip seals that glide within micro-grooves to create a tight barrier against water and trail debris, keeping the internal components protected.

The headset uses high-end stainless steel cartridge bearings. While they are designed for exceptional longevity, they are replaceable, allowing you to service the headset rather than replacing the entire unit if the bearings eventually wear out.

Yes, this headset is compatible with frames that have a 44mm head tube, regardless of whether the frame material is aluminum, steel, or carbon. Just ensure your frame's head tube specifications match the EC44 standard.

Aircraft-grade aluminum provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. It ensures the headset is robust enough to handle the stress of aggressive off-road riding without adding unnecessary weight to the front end of your bike.
