Strange Oval
Strange Oval torsion bars have been winning races since 2008
We’re one of racings best kept secrets
- Repeatable ride height without adjustment
- Holds rate for extended period of time – we’ve run them for 30+ races
- Unparalleled consistency, even after wrecks
- Seamless and smooth spline fit – leave your mallet at home
- Our manufacturing method differs from anything on the market
- Critical hardness and yield numbers are better than anything on the market
- Aircraft quality chrome vanadium steel offers superior yield strength, fatigue properties, and impact toughness
- Vertical rack heat treating controls distortion
- CNC hobbed serration splines for precise and consistent fit
- Generous transition fillet radii essential to reduction of stress risers
- Lightweight gun-drilled design
- Additional attention directed to non-aggressive machining to impart a minimum amount of residual tensile stress
- Shot peening provides increased torsional and bending fatigue life with the application of residual compressive stress
- Laser etched part number on torsion bar O.D. gives the relationship to a common solid bar’s equivalent rate
- Common solid bar number of equivalent rate also engraved onto the end of strange torsion bar for easy identification
