Each Strange forged alloy steel custom axle is manufactured to your exact specifications.Strange axles are CNC precision machined from premium forged alloy steel to provide greater flexibilty.Then they are induction hardened to resist bending loadsWhen axles are intended for use in street applications this is very important.
Strange axles go through an induction hardening process.This specific type of hardening is used to treat all Strange alloy steel axles.This process allows the axles to survive the bending loads associated with street usage.We can not stress enough the importance that Strange Engineering does the majority of its machine work prior to heat treatment.This allows for consistent heat treat depth, leading to a stronger axle.Once heat treated, the flange and bearing area are finished machined to ensure trueness.
We Machine Axle Splines Before Heat Treatment - Not AfterwardsBe aware that some companies heat treat their axles before machining the splines.This is evident by their shiny appearance that are weakend due to the loss of heat treated material.Strange axles are manufactured with a larger than stock axle bearing diameter area - 1.563"To minimize stress concentration in the bearing area the Strange axle shoulder is designed to accept a larger radius ring.Alloy Axle Packages Are Optimized For Street & TrackSee our Pro Race axle packages for maximum torsional strength for all out Drag RacingThese packages are listed in RELATED PRODUCTS
