MOOG continues to raise the bar for control arm excellence by
constantly testing and developing new engineering solutions to
improve vehicle ride and performance. Application-specific
innovations to MOOG premium control arms include induction-hardened
studs and carbon fiber-reinforced bearings with PTFE.
Induction-hardened studs provide added strength, while the
patent-pending carbon fiber-reinforced bearings reduce socket
friction compared to typical non-reinforced bearings, providing
longer socket life. Premium control arms also feature enhanced
structural strength and increased corrosion resistance.
Earlier this year, MOOG introduced its High Utilization hub
assemblies. Building upon its long history of Problem Solver
methodology, design and technology, these improved MOOG products
feature enhancements for reliability, durability, and lasting
performance in truck applications, even in challenging, high-usage
conditions. New application-specific components include a new heat
shield to protect the ABS sensor cable in high-heat conditions; a
next generation outboard bearing race design integrated into the
spindle for increased strength and durability; and an enhanced
inboard seal and Grime Defense outboard seal to provide maximum
protection against water, salt, dust, and road dirt.
"As we've shown throughout 2022, MOOG engineers constantly
strive to create and enhance our products to exceed our customers'
expectations for durability, quality, and availability," said
Adam Richardson, Brand and Product
Director, MOOG. "We design every part to an exact
specification and make sure they are tested to our high standards,
so it's easy for us to stand behind the MOOG name as The Problem
Solver."
