Hi There,
I recently joint the group and I came up with following issue which very much related to material selection and applying the right heat treatment. we are using A.I.S.I 1144 steel for our starter armature shaft (.8225/.8240')and carburising the full length of spline to R/C 48/55 (depth of .02/.05) but we are getting 30% more twisting issue in comparison to OEM product after applying the same torque during the application. please advise if can it be the result of hardening depth or the strength of material? Or there is any alternative material/Process for this application?
Thank you
