Polyurethane crankshaft damper pulley
Stabilizer strut bushings play a key role in the operation of the car's suspension. The comfort, controllability and safety of the vehicle, as well as the durability of other suspension components, depend on such a seemingly insignificant detail.
New technologies offer an alternative to conventional rubber silent blocks with more modern polyurethane analogs, which have a number of advantages with a small difference in cost. This is especially relevant for foreign cars that have been discontinued, but are still actively operated on our roads.
Design feature
Stabilizer strut bushings are used for attaching levers and rods to the car suspension. The silent block takes over part of the load during suspension operation and dampens vibrations emanating from the levers. The main parameters for the durability of silent blocks of the stabilizer are its resistance to twisting and resistance to tearing in a wide range of temperatures. In the case of a long-term standstill of the vehicle, the rubber bushings of the stabilizer struts dry out and quickly become unusable. As a rule, worn silent blocks are replaced in pairs - on the front or rear axle.
A modern solution to improve the characteristics and durability of the suspension is the use of polyurethane bushings of the stabilizer struts from the PolyPro company.
Symptoms of failure
The first signs of wear of the bushings of the stabilizer struts is the appearance of a knock coming from the front or rear axle of the car. To this fact, the deterioration of controllability is also added, especially for the front suspension. This is clearly evident when driving on roads with poor pavement.
The small resource of ordinary bushings of the stabilizer struts is mainly due to the aggressive environment where the part is installed. Dirt, sand, abrasive substances get into the seats and increase the wear of the part.
In the realities of domestic roads, the resource of silent blocks of levers can be reduced by 2-3 times from that declared by the manufacturer. For foreign cars that have been discontinued for a long time, car owners cannot always buy a high-quality analogue, and a Chinese fake can become unusable after the first 100-200 km of mileage after replacement. Low-quality silent blocks can cause a lot of problems for the car owner, including financial ones.
Application of polyurethane technologies
Not much time has passed since the appearance of polyurethane parts, but the popularity of this material is increasing in the automotive industry. Gradually, more and more motorists decide to buy polyurethane bushings for stabilizer struts and other auto parts, where the main component is polyurethane.
The PolyPro company has been producing more than 23,000 items of high-quality polyurethane parts since 2011. The production of bushings of the stabilizer bar is available for almost all car models, and if the necessary part is not in the catalog, it can be produced individually with a guarantee of quality.
Among the main advantages of polyurethane bushings of stabilizer struts from PolyPro, we highlight:
- High resource and durability. On average, it exceeds 2-3 times in comparison with ordinary rubber. Regular tests are conducted, and the real experience of car owners is studied.
- Strength. 3-component polyurethane makes it possible to manufacture silent blocks with different degrees of stiffness for the front and rear axles of the car. Its properties are practically not lost under the influence of various reagents and temperature fluctuations.
- Different degrees of elasticity. Depending on the requirements of the car manufacturer, it is possible to change the degree of elasticity in the range from 45 to 90 units. according to Shor, maintaining its properties in a wide range of temperatures.
- Universal application. Thanks to modern technologies, it is possible to manufacture parts of various shapes and sizes at an affordable price. The parts presented on the PoliPro website in the spare parts catalog have the same dimensions as the original, and if necessary, it is possible to make an individual order.
- Economy. Many manufacturers sell auto parts in a set or assembly, and this increases their cost several times. PolyPro offers to pick up or manufacture only the defective part, saving money and time.
- Quality guarantee. All PolyPro products are covered by a 1-hour warranty with no mileage limit.
