Focus
ST and RS owners are all too familiar with the commonly reported torque
steer effect of their vehicles. Our new part provides anti-lift and
caster offset to improve handling characteristics and has been proven
and tested on road and track.
PFF19-1002G adds
1 degree of caster offset for a greater tyre contact area, which, in
turn, provides greater feedback information to the driver, improves
traction and offers greater stability. The increased caster angle
produces more weight and detail to the steering which is vital to driver
confidence, allowing your Focus to corner with more urgency,
significantly improved grip and reduced understeer.
Starting
out as a 6082 T6 (heat treated) solid billet of aluminium, our CNC
machining centre and 4th axis shape the material into our unique design
which is then hard black anodized, followed by an engraving process. By
machining from a solid billet, we ensure our part has the best strength
to weight ratio and looks great too. PFF19-1002G ships with CNC machined
stainless steel-steel thrust washers to enhance braking stability.
In
our Purple Shore 80A Road Series material, PFF19-1002G is 10% stiffer
than the original rubber bush, whilst our Black Series Shore 95A
material is 85% stiffer than the original for those looking for a
Track/Competition option.
Why use Powerflex?
Polyurethane has been with us as a specialised plastic for some
thirty years. However recent advances have now made it possible to
engineer very special properties into this exciting material. Suspension
bushes are some of the most highly stressed components fitted to a
motor car. They undergo enormous strains and in the most arduous of
conditions with no maintenance or lubrication.
The material they
are manufactured from is a rubber compound containing natural products
which deteriorate with age. It becomes softer and more pliable,
resisting the forces placed on it less and less. Therefore allowing more
and more movement of suspension components and offering less and less
control over the suspension geometry.
This in turn causes
accelerated tyre wear, braking instability and poor handling. This is
the single biggest reason you can instantly tell the difference driving a
three year old car compared to a showroom new one. However even new
cars will benefit from POWERFLEX bushes because of their superior design
they offer much more effective control of the suspension components to a
much greater extent than normal rubber items.
POWERFLEX for
prolonged tyre life.With the technological advances in this material it
has been possible to overcome the common problem associated with harder
bushes which is increased noise. By correctly engineering the
polyurethane compound, bushes can be made 25-30% stiffer than new rubber
items but with exactly the same noise absorbing properties.
