OTT Bearing (Zhejiang Tongtao Bearing Co., Ltd.) will exhibit at Automechanika Johannesburg 2026, the leading automotive aftermarket trade fair for Sub-Saharan Africa, held October 27–29 at the Gallagher Convention Centre, Midrand, South Africa.

Booth 3D39 — We're here to discuss partnership and agency opportunities across the African continent.

Products for the African Aftermarket

Africa's automotive aftermarket demands bearings that handle extreme heat, heavy dust, and rough road conditions. At Booth 3D39, OTT will showcase:

Heavy-duty wheel hub bearings — Engineered for the pickup trucks and commercial vehicles that dominate African roads. Our bearings cover Toyota Hilux, Land Cruiser, Ford Ranger, Isuzu D-Max, Mitsubishi L200, Hyundai H100, and dozens more. Every unit is built to OEM specifications with our carbonitriding heat treatment for maximum service life in harsh conditions.

Dust and waterproof sealed bearings — Africa's unpaved roads create extreme dust exposure that destroys standard seals. OTT's multi-lip seal designs (Type D/E) with special dust shields maintain bearing integrity through conditions that would cause premature failure in conventional bearings.

Commercial vehicle bearings — From last-mile delivery vans to heavy-duty trucks, our tapered roller bearings and hub units handle the load capacities that commercial fleets require. Cross-referenced to SKF, FAG, NTN, and Timken numbers for easy specification.

Partnership & Agency Opportunities

OTT is expanding distribution across Sub-Saharan Africa. We're looking for established automotive parts distributors who want to add a reliable, factory-direct bearing brand to their portfolio.

What we offer partners: competitive FOB pricing, consistent quality (IATF 16949 certified), custom packaging and branding options, marketing materials, and dedicated account management. Our factory in Jiashan, China operates 24 production lines with 20 million sets annual capacity — we deliver on time.
