07ConMet TruTurn Brake Drums130008062019 TRUTURN ® BRAKE DRUMS Precision-Machined for Longer Life ConMetâs âturned-to-balanceâ manufacturing process ensure uniform wall thickness for longer life and improved braking. TRUTURN BRAKE DRUMS BENEFITS: ⪠⪠Drum strength is increased through âturned-to-balanceâ machining process ⪠⪠Full machining lowers drum temperature ⪠⪠Precisely machined surfaces reduce vibration ⪠⪠TruTurn drums are machined inside and out ⪠⪠Up to 10% in weight savings with TruTurn Lite TruTurn Drums are Inherently Balanced for Better Performance TruTurn brake drums are constructed using ConMetâs âturned-to-balanceâmachining process, which improves drum strength by eliminating the need for weld-on weights and balance cuts. Not only does this process make the drums stronger, but it creates other advantages such as uniform thermal expansion for reduced brake pulsing, and improved heat transfer, so the drum and brake linings stay cooler. Braking force is more evenly distributed, and occurrences of vibration and âjudderâ are minimized. With each stop, TruTurn brake drums maintain lower temperatures, maximize durability, minimize wear, and improve brake performance. Stays Cool During Crucial Stops Traditional cast brake drums are only machined on the inside, which can cause inconsistencies in the wall thickness and lead to drum cracking from âhot spotsâ and uneven heat distribution. TruTurn brake drums are machined inside and out, so 95% of their surface area is precisely shaped to ensure dimensional consistency. This makes for more uniform heat distribution, which means the drum and linings stay cooler during crucial stops. Cooler drums last longer, improve performance, and save money on maintenance over the long haul. Surpasses the Competi ion Test after test, i the lab and n the highw y, TruTurn brake drums beat the competition. They surpass the accepted standards of industry performance testing. With the increase in dimensional precision, they outperform traditional cast drums in many applications. Utilizing the latest engineering and manufacturing techniques, TruTurn brake drums exceed customer expectations for performance and quality at an affordable price. Additionally, the TruTurn design meets Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) 121, giving you added confidence in this reliable product. TRUTURN ® AND TRUTURN LITE ⢠: BETTER HowWe Make a TruTurn Brake Drum There can be deviations in wall thickness that would cause a drum to be unbalanced. Machining removes the deviations without affecting the drumâs strength. The final result is an inherently balanced drum that is ready to install from the factory. To make a drum true it must be machined on both interior and exterior walls.
