I bought a new front wheel bearing from a autojumble and it has PATEN PENDING writen on it.
The box it came in has part number 628 11 0150, FRONT WHEEL BEARING E30 and MADE IN ITALY on it.
Is this gonna be ok to use.

It will fit ok, just wondering what PATEN PENDING means, has any one ever seen that stamped on the hub.

Paten pending (or PATENT) means that the company that makes them is waiting for confirmation from the patent office, so that no other company can copy their design.
safe to use.
