TORSEN DIFFERENTIAL NIGHT In response for a Members Branch Activity Night in Lismore , Mr Matt Mason from Lismore Differentials will host and give us an insight into the working principals of a Torsen Differential. TORSEN Differentials are fairly common limited slip units used in many applications including acting as the centre differential on many 4WD vehicles. The Torsen (torque sensing) Differential is a purely mechanical device, it has no electronics, clutches or viscous fluids. The Torsen works as an open differential when the amount of torque going to each wheel is equal, but as soon as one wheel starts to lose traction, the differential torque causes the gears in the torsen differential to bind together. So come along and see how these amazing units work Date: Wednesday 24 August 2011 Time: 6.30pm for a 7.00pm Start.
