Harmonic Balancer

The vibration and movement generated from the daily operations that the car must go through can cause much discomfort that can add up to fatigue and stress after long hours of exhaustive work. The torsional vibration that accompanies the series of movements in the cylinder and crankshaft is one of the uncomfortable effects of transmission of power. Good thing the car is equipped with harmonic balancer to minimize if not completely eliminate the vibration.

The harmonic balancer is composed of massive steel ring positioned over a thin layer of rubber on the outside portion of the center hub. As the power coming from the cylinder is transmitted through the crankshaft, the rubber or disc of the harmonic balancer is the one twisted instead of the heavy part of the damper hence the operation is noise free with little vibration produced.

Aside from harmonic balancer, other types of vibration absorber can be used to minimize the negative effects of vibration. An example of which is the classic dynamic vibration absorber commonly used by cars from the older generation. Some types have features similar to a small clutch. In between the hub face and the miniature damper flywheel is a friction facing which work together to reduce the effects of torsional vibration in the crankshaft.

So if you feel vibrations that cause you discomfort and stress, check the harmonic balancer to see if it needs mere repair or replacement. It is preferable to ask help from your auto mechanic to know what really needs to e done. In case replacement is the solution, web based stores can be included on top of your choices. Selection and purchase is easy since there are on line catalogs and forms that you can just fill up with the pieces of information it calls for. See to it that the harmonic balancer you choose is matched with the specific features required by the car.
