axeldelar

Axeldelar, or axle components, refer to the various parts that make up an axle assembly in a vehicle. An axle is a central shaft that connects a set of wheels and rotates with them. It is a crucial component for transmitting power from the drivetrain to the wheels, allowing the vehicle to move.

Key axle components include the axle shaft itself, which is the main rotating bar. Bearings are essential for reducing friction and supporting the axle shaft as it spins. Seals are used to prevent lubricant from escaping the axle housing and to keep contaminants out. The axle housing, or casing, encloses and protects the internal components and also serves to support the wheels. In driven axles, a differential is a vital component that allows the wheels on the same axle to rotate at different speeds, which is necessary for turning. Drive axles also incorporate universal joints or constant velocity (CV) joints, which transmit power through a changing angle between the transmission and the wheels. Brake components, such as brake rotors and calipers, are often mounted to the axle assembly and are considered part of the overall system. Maintenance and replacement of these axeldelar are critical for vehicle safety and performance.
