The cylinders are cast iron, but we also have bare aluminum cylinders that we are playing with. Would it be different for each material?
Thanks TVP, I was thinking that 0.6-0.8 was the upper limit, I will probably hold them to a higher standard (lower roughness).
Any additional info would be...
So I found some roughness inside the cylinder of a brake master cylinder that we are producing in China. I know I cannot accept the roughness, but I am trying to find information on an acceptable surface finish inside of the cylinder. I am having very little luck.
I believe somewhere around...
Ya that is the same thing that I thought at first, but nearly all of those hits are people selling crankshafts or other parts. The other ones mostly have the composition of the material, but very few have strength properties. Anyway thanks for the help.
Good day,
As the title states, one of my manufacturers says they have EN40B steel available for casting. I am trying to validate my design in solidworks / cosmos, but need material properties to import into the material database. I have searched like crazy to try and find any info or similar...
Hi all,
I am looking into getting brake pads made for MGB and other british cars. The issue is that companies that give me quotes do not specify the compounds they use. What i am wondering is if anybody knows the compounds or materials used in "old school" organic brake pads, which make very...
I was looking into PA66 but was unsure about its alcohol resistance and chemical resistance compared to PA12(which I believe has less chemical resistance). Thanks for your help, your expertise is much appreciated!
Hello all,
I have a question about plastics and nylons in modern gasoline. I am dealing with some carb floats that are made from Acrylonitrile styrene resin. The material is breaking down and chipping off in fuels with ethanol. Is anyone else fighting this fuel battle? Does anyone know the...
