The rubber friction disk is a component utilized in snow plows to provide friction for the propulsion system. It is typically located in the transmission system of the snow blower, in contact with other transmission components such as transmission belts or chains, and transmits power through friction. The disk is made of rubber material and possesses specific elastic and frictional characteristics. When the power from the snowplow is transmitted to the friction disc, it makes contact with the ground and provides traction through friction. This allows the snowplow to move across the snow surface and clear snow effectively. The design and quality of the seals are critical to the snowplow’s performance and operating experience. They must be wear-resistant, cold-resistant, and durable to handle harsh winter conditions. The rubber friction discs’ friction characteristics must be appropriately adjusted to ensure the snowplow provides optimal traction in various ground conditions while preventing excessive slipping or binding.

Zertifizierungsstandard

  • The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has published several standards pertaining to rubber goods, including as test procedures and specifications for the physical characteristics, oil, cold, and wear resistance of rubber materials. For instance, testing rubber materials for tensile properties is covered by ISO 37, while testing rubber for abrasion resistance is covered by ISO 4649.
  • ASTM International Standards: The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) is a body that develops standards for a wide range of products, including abrasion resistance, cold resistance, and physical characteristics of rubber materials. For instance, rubber materials are tested for tensile properties under the ASTM D412 standard and for abrasion resistance under the ASTM D5963 standard.
  • REACH rules: These laws, which address the registration, evaluation, licensing, and limitation requirements of chemicals, are part of the European Union’s REACH program. The applicable rules and regulations must also be followed if the rubber material used in the rubber friction disc is a chemical substance subject to REACH laws.
  • National or regional standards: Rubber goods may be subject to particular regulations and standards in each nation or area. Take the GB standard in China, the CSA standard in Canada, and the UL standard in the United States.

Vorteil und Funktion

  1. offer traction: The snow plow can propel and move firmly on the snow surface thanks to the rubber friction disk’s ability to offer traction through contact with the ground. It contributes to creating enough friction to get past the snow’s resistance and make sure the snowplow can travel ahead effectively.
  2. Adaptable to various ground conditions: The Rubber friction disk’s design and material choice allow it to function in a range of environments, including ice, snow, and uneven terrain. It guarantees steady traction and fluid, controlled snowplow operation over a range of terrain.
  3. Wear resistance: The friction disc is usually made of wear-resistant rubber material and has good wear resistance. It is able to withstand friction and wear over time, extending the life of the friction disc and reducing the need for maintenance and replacement.
  4. Cold resistance: Rubber friction disks often have good cold resistance, as they must function in chilly winter conditions. Even in cold weather, the rubber material maintains its softness and flexibility, offering dependable grip and performance.
  5. Minimize Noise and Vibration: When snow plows are in use, friction discs lessen the noise and vibration they produce. Rubber materials provide cushioning and shock-absorbing qualities that lessen vibrations transferred to the operator and machine and lower noise levels while the equipment is operating.
  6. Stability and dependability: Rubber friction disks are made with great care to guarantee their stability and dependability under a variety of operating circumstances. In a range of conditions, they offer steady traction and dependable performance, enabling snow plows to complete tasks quickly.
