In-house REM Polishing process by Weddle Industries
Reduce friction and extend the life of your driveline components. Weddle Industries offers complete in-house REM ISF® polishing for gears, ring & pinion sets, CV joints, engine parts, and many other components. Developed by REM Surface Engineering, ISF, or “Isotropic Superfinish”, is a polishing treatment for machined metal components that eliminates the imperfections left over by the machining process. In very simplified terms, the “peaks” left on metal parts by various manufacturing processes are removed using vibratory equipment in conjunction with patented solutions to speed up the process.
The result is a much more uniform surface that provides many impressive benefits for motorsports, including:
- Reduced Friction
- Lower Operating Temperatures
- Extended Component Life
- Increased Efficiency
- Reduced Lubrication Requirements
- Reduced Metal Debris
- No Break-in Required
The bottom line is that REM polishing will decrease power loss by making your driveline
more efficient. Since its inception in 1965, REM ISF polishing has revolutionized the
performance capabilities of metal to metal contact parts.
Being able to perform REM polishing in house is the perfect compliment to our Weddle
Racing Gears and Weddle Racing Ring & Pinion Sets. The benefits of REM, however, do not
stop at treating gears. Most transaxles will benefit from smoother shifts as well by treating
sliders, slider hubs, and shift rails. From spider gears to ring & pinions to CV joints, REM
polishing will help your driveline perform better and your components last longer.
