Advantages of SGF Tube-in-Tube for steering system

»

High steering convenience realisable due to very good decoupling performance in all directions.

»

Simplified logistics due to reduced number of components.

»

Smaller diameter compared to flexible coupling.

»

Maintenance-free for life; protection of downstream components due to limitation of torque peaks.

Features

»

Installed in combination with a cardan joint, no limitation with steering spindle running.

»
Reduces and isolates vibrations and structure-borne noise over a wide range due to the
interruption of the noise paths in the drive train.

»
Fine tuning to customer requests possible at any time without change in design.

»
Minimises wear of adjacent components by elimination of torque peaks.

»
Maintenance-free for lifetime of vehicle.

»Compensates for axial displacements (to approx. 1 mm) and mounting tolerances.

Functions

»

The special configuration of rubber elements in the component produces special characteristics.

»Strong radial pretensioning shifts the load area completely into the
pressure area. => Lifetime-enhancement

»Load-dependent cross-section surface (small with zero crossing, high with increased loads) solves goal conflict of decoupling and lifetime. => Lifetime-enhancement

»The pressure-based design means that, in contrast to a thrust-based
design, the axial decoupling capacity is increased by a factor of 3.
