Valve guide are cylindrical shaped metal tube component placed on valve stem. Its primary function is to keep valve align with valve seat position and conduct heat from valve stem into cylinder chamber, to maintain low ambient temperature. Engine valve reciprocated several thousand times inside valve guide during its operation.
Correct choice material of valve guide is of critical importance to maintain its durability and reliability under extreme load condition. Majorly, guides are made up of different types of cast iron, apart from aluminium bronze and brass material. Essential characteristic of guide is its low friction and high thermal conductivity which lead to superior performance.
SSV’s in-depth knowledge of manufacturing valve guide ensures to maintaining its proper internal diameter following industry standards and specification. Too low clearance between engine valve stem and internal diameter of valve guide results in quick worn-out parts and excessive clearance will cause damage to engine, so borehole is reamed by reamer to maintain accurate dimensions. Our valve guide are direct OEM replacements. Special guides have internal spiral groove, designed to retain oil to reduce wear out ratio. We also supply guide with phosphate and black nitride finish. Our special heat treatment process ensures our supplied components are long lasting in every light, medium and heavy-duty engines.
Guides are integral part of Valve Train Assembly are manufactured by casting process to ensure great thermal conductivity under high stress. The guide’s life can be prolonged with proper clearance between inner diameter of guide to valve stem and maintaining appropriate hardness to lower its friction and deformation. Proper selection of material and understanding its grain size, matrix, graphite type, size & form will give desired result of performance.
Defining accurate process flow is very important for precise manufacturing of guides given its importance in engine. Next generation of engine need next generation of precise valve guides, which SSV can make.
Proactively meeting customer expectations is what we do at SSV, every day.
