Obtaining perfect balance is important to your engine's performance. The harmonic balancer reduces torsional vibration of the crankshaft, which is the motion naturally generated during each power ...

Engineers design modern engines to survive huge forces, yet one small part can still fail with violent results. When a crankshaft damper lets go at speed, metal fragments can slice through belts, ...

The topic was vibration—the unseen forces going to town inside any engine spinning deep into the rpm stratosphere, and the devices designed to keep those forces in check. First, it’s a damper ...

The harmonic balancer addresses this issue by stabilizing the crankshaft. Harmonic balancers are incredibly durable components. However, they are subject to wear and tear over time, and if yours goes ...
