Sorry for my poor english, i'm doing my best but the topic makes it hard The part in the image is a fork dampener: on the head (left side) there's the coil, and it stays inside the inner tube, the bottom (right side) is screwed on the very bottom of the fork. The chrome inner tube slides "around" the head and the oil in the fork is forced to flow thru the holes, dampening the coil rebound. Now i was thinking about making a modified part, more long (to have more "travel") and the friend that have the lathe told me that this pieces are made by rolling), to increase the fatigue) resistance. This seems a solid reasoning, but there's a commercial mod that involve enlarging the holes with a drill, which seems to me that will counter the idea of a very stressed piece that needs to be made by rolling. So i'm seeking for educated infos that will confirm or negate the fact that this part cannot be made with a lathe. Can someone educate me? [link] [comments] |
