Flywheel Buying Guide and Maintenance Tips

Introduction

● Flywheels play a crucial role in storing rotational energy generated by the engine as stored energy can be utilized to modify the speed of rotation,

● Properly functioning flywheel helps to smoothen power pulses, reducing vibrations and ensuring a more consistent power delivery.

● Flywheels serve as components that store a significant amount of kinetic energy and can be used later to increase efficiency

1.Check The Flywheel Material

● Consider the material, such as ductile iron, cast iron, billet aluminium, or billet steel..

● Ensure the material provides the desired mechanical integrity and strength.

● To manufacture flywheels with the appropriate strength and stability, the best casting goods suppliers employ GG 20/25 grade cast iron and GGG 50 grade ductile iron..

2.Consider The Weight Of The Flywheels

● Choose between lightweight flywheels for faster engine response and sharper RPM figures.

● For vehicles with stock gears, use standard-weight flywheels with better energy-storage capacity..

● Adjust the inertia to make light flywheels and standard-weight flywheels comparable.
