      Automotive Chassis

      Automotive Chassis | NORGLIDE Bearing & RENCOL Tolerance Rings

      Consumers want lighter-weight vehicles for better fuel economy, but they don’t want to sacrifice speed or performance. This means manufacturers need to produce more powerful assemblies and equipment in smaller spaces. In addition, tightened budgets mean they have to boost their assembly-line efficiency at the same as they find new ways to add value.

      NORGLIDE® Bearings and RENCOL® Tolerance Rings are becoming the components of choice for Automotive manufacturers seeking smartly designed steering systems with fewer and lighter components in place. They offer manufacturers a compact solution that reduces vibration and harshness, enhances reliability and reduces assembly time and labour, ultimately lowering costs.

       

      Automotive Chassis Applications

      Anti-Theft Steering Column

      Automotive Anti Theft Steering Column | Rencol Tolerance RingsThe Anti-theft Steering Column uses a RENCOL® Tolerance Ring to provide overload protection to the lock collar in the case of a vehicle theft -- meets current EU legislation.

      Collapsible Steering Column

      Automotive Collapsible Steering Column | Rencol Tolerance RingThe Collapsible Steering Column uses a RENCOL® Tolerance Ring to allow the inner tube to slip inside the outer jacket during a vehicle collision.

      Video Demonstration

      Saint-Gobain's RENCOL® Tolerance Rings are fitted between the outer jacket and the inner tube to ensure safe steering under normal conditions. In case of a vehicle collision, resulting high force in anxial direction, they slip and allow the steering column to collapse.

      Gear Mount

      Automotive Gear Mounts | Rencol Tolerance RingsA RENCOL® Tolerance Ring is used to control the torque of the Drive Gear (acts as a simple fuse) in a column mounted Electric Power Steering System (EPSS).

      Pinion Gear

      Automotive Pinion Gear | Norglide BearingsNORGLIDE® Bearings are used in an electric power steering system (EPSS) where they are located inside the rolling elements. They allow the pinion shaft to slightly move in axial direction inside the roller bearings to avoid a hard stop when changing the turning direction.

       

      Pulley Mount

      Automotive Pulley Mounts | Rencol Tolerance RingsA RENCOL® Tolerance Ring is used to simply mount the drive Pulley to the shaft in a rack drive Electric Power Steering (EPS) system.
