Flywheel

What are the benefits of a Mercedes‑Benz Genuine Remanufactured truck flywheel?

A flywheel as a genuine remanufactured part complies with the high standards applicable to series production at Mercedes‑Benz in terms of precision and function. Comprehensive remanufacturing includes mechanical and manual cleaning, installing a new bearing and machining all threads. Vibrations in the engine can be noticeably reduced thanks to the precisely balanced flywheel. Refacing the ring gear enables the kind of frictional characteristics that you would expect from a new part. The complete surface finishing also means that the genuine remanufactured part is virtually indistinguishable from a new part as well.

How does a truck flywheel work?

In a reciprocating piston engine, the flywheel – specifically, two-mass flywheel – is responsible for damping misshapen rotational movements in the engine. The motion of the pistons and the crankshaft causes certain vibrations, leading to imbalances that are offset by the flywheel. This causes friction between the flywheel and the clutch plate, the companion part to the flywheel, which results in natural wear to the component part. This wear makes it inevitable that the wear part will have to be replaced at some point. Purchasing a genuine remanufactured flywheel from Mercedes‑Benz constitutes a cost-effective and therefore particularly appealing alternative.
