Torque-Tube Bearing Spacer


This metal-to-plastic conversion of a torque-tube bearing spacer provides significant weight savings to the drivetrain. The injection molded 50% long-glass PPA material eliminates machining on previous cast housings, provides high stiffness and low creep, outstanding impact resistance, high temperature performance, and holds ID and OD tolerances of +/- 50 microns. It also reduces mass 80% and costs 40-60%. Further, the composite spacer improves serviceability/rework and eliminates galling on the torque tube.
