Should the dust cover of the car's ball cage be replaced in time?
1. The material used for the dust cover is thermoplastic elastomer, also known as thermoplastic rubber, which is a polymer alloy material between rubber and thermoplastic plastic. When the ball cage dust cover on the axle is broken or damaged, there will be dust entry and grease leakage;
2. This will cause the axle joint to make a crash noise, especially when the car turns. Transmission shaft is an important component of automobile transmission system;
3. It has the dual characteristics of rubber and plastic: it has the same elasticity, cold resistance and electrical insulation as rubber at normal temperature; It can be plasticized at high temperature. TPE is the so-called third generation rubber after natural rubber and synthetic rubber. The main function of the dust cover is to prevent dust, water and the oil inside from drying to protect the bearing
After the dust boot of the ball cage is broken, the grease in the ball cage will be thrown out, dust and dirt will enter the bearing of the ball cage, causing abnormal wear of the ball cage, and even causing the ball cage to be stuck. So it is recommended to replace it in time.
It is found that the shock absorber dust cover is broken, which is necessary to replace! The dust cover plays a great role in preventing dust and dirt from entering the shock absorber and prolonging the life of the shock absorber! During the replacement process, the clamp of the dust cover must be tightened to prevent it from falling off.
