Bearing for strut mount are an important part of the automobile suspension system and play a key role in the stability and driving comfort of the vehicle. Bearing for strut mount are usually located at the top of the McPherson independent suspension system, connecting the shock absorber to the body, responsible for supporting the vertical load of the suspension system and buffering the impact vibration from the road surface.
During the driving process of the vehicle, the bearing for strut mount allows the shock absorber to rotate slightly with the wheel when turning through its internally designed ball or sliding bearing structure, thereby ensuring that the suspension system can flexibly respond to the steering wheel's control instructions. This dual function not only ensures the stability of the vehicle when turning, but also effectively absorbs the vibration caused by road bumps, preventing the vibration from being directly transmitted to the steering wheel, significantly improving the driving smoothness and control accuracy.
In addition, the push rod support bearing can block the transmission path of noise and vibration through the built-in high-strength rubber bushing, reducing the problem of abnormal noise during driving. When the vehicle passes through potholes or turns at high speed, the pressure resistance and wear resistance of this component can disperse mechanical stress and protect other components of the suspension system from excessive wear. As the vehicle mileage increases, the rubber material of the push rod support bearing may age and crack, and the bearing raceway may have gaps due to metal fatigue, which will cause problems such as heavy steering, abnormal chassis noise, and even uneven tire wear.
Therefore, it is crucial to regularly check the sealing and operating flexibility of this component and replace the failed bearing assembly in time to maintain vehicle handling performance and driving safety. High-quality bearing for strut mount are usually made of special alloy steel and weather-resistant rubber materials. Their durability and reliability are ensured through precision processing technology, making them an indispensable core component in modern automotive suspension systems.
