The Cause of the Fracture of the Automotive Driveline Slip Yoke
On the construction site, the excavator that was working suddenly made an abnormal noise, and immediately stopped for inspection and found that the slip yoke casting had broken. This kind of situation is very common in the use of construction machinery, but every fracture may bring serious safety risks and maintenance costs.
Excavator repair masters know the importance of connecting rods. When the engine power drops or other abnormal conditions occur, they will first check the status of the connecting rod. In order for the engine to be able to work normally without the entire maintenance and key components such as the connecting rod, we must have an in-depth understanding of the causes of the failure and fracture of the connecting rod. So what are the reasons for the fracture of the slip yoke casting? This article focuses on this content.
The reason for slip yoke casting：
Water entering the engine cylinder is the main cause of slip yoke casting. When there is water in the engine cylinder, the connecting rod will withstand gradually increasing compression pressure, which may cause the disassembled connecting rod to bend or deform.
For example, in an excavator engine, if the injector of a certain cylinder is found to continue to inject oil, the risk of bending and deformation of the connecting rod is greatly increased. We should also pay attention to whether the machine has difficulty starting, black smoke and insufficient power.
The timely replacement of engine oil is also very important. If the engine oil is not replaced for a long time or the engine oil of poor quality is used, the lubrication effect will not be so good. After a long time, the bending or even fracture of the connecting rod and crankshaft is very likely to occur.
Therefore, during the maintenance process, if you need to replace key accessories such as connecting rods, you must choose carefully. If conditions permit, it is recommended to choose factory parts or accessories of comparable quality to the original parts to ensure the normal operation of the engine.
