SEGMENTED FLYWHEELS
The
World's First of its Kind!!
Where better engineering produces better products.
RPS
announces a new line of superior billet flywheels. These
flywheels utilize RPS's patent pending "segmented"
heat shield system. Traditional heat shields warp because of
the uneven heat produced by a slipping clutch. Just like a car
going around in a circle, the outside tires go faster than the
inside tires, the clutch disc slides faster around the outside
of the flywheel than it does around the inside. The faster
moving outside gets hotter than the inside. Because metal
expands more the hotter it gets, the outside of the heat
shield expands more than the inside. Traditional heat shields
are made of one piece metal rings, so when the outside expands
more than the inside, the only thing the shield can do is
warp. The RPS Segmented heat shields are not connected so they
can expand and contract without warping. A warped heat shield
causes the clutch to slip, which causes more heat and more
warpage.
RPS
Billet Flywheels are dynamically balanced after CNC machining.
Other flywheel manufactures assume that since they CNC their
flywheels it comes off the machine fully balanced. This would
be true assuming the density of the aluminum is constant
throughout the part. Unfortunately even the best billet
material is not evenly dense throughout and the starter ring
gears are never perfect.
RPS
Billet Flywheels are also fully rebuildable for the life of
the car.
