Why are TuffBond®
Harmonic Balancers so different?
These premium Harmonic Balancers
are manufactured using the
unique TuffBond®
process.
-
Precision
CNC machined
high tensile alloy steel hub and
vibration dampening ring
-
special formula
dampening elastomer rubber.
-
Absorbs more damaging torsional harmonic vibrations
-
exclusive Tuffbond elastrometic bonding
process creates an intermolecular bond
-
Improved vibration dampening
-
Increases engine life
-
Quicker engine acceleration
-
Never requires maintenance or rebuilding - ever!
-
Each unit is balanced,
painted, and oil seal area is treated with a preservative to prevent rust.
-
Lifetime warranty, even for racing use - a world first!
Utilizing the ORIGINAL
TuffBond®
elastrometic bonding
process
-
(a similar process to that used by
Mercedes and BMW in production of balancers and engine mounts).

By comparison:
Balancers manufactured using
traditional dampening materials and assembly methods
are prone to breakdown
through heat and vibration.
The twisting forces
applied to a balancer
-
particularly in performance applications - causes spinning and
loss of timing
accuracy.
Some manufacturers knurl the metal
faces exposed to the dampening material in an effort to reduce spinning.
Subjected to constant vibrations,
dampening contact problems and, eventually, breakdown of the dampening
material results.
