Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics improve design of powertrain components(04/11/2010)
Two small components from Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics – Rencol tolerance rings and Norglide self-lubricating plain bearings – are significantly improving the performance of automotive powertrain components. Both can be used in dual mass flywheels while the use of Norglide bearings in decoupled pulleys (shown opposite) has contributed to a change of design.
