Ford Power Stroke Diesel Harmonic Dampers

Fluidampr Ford Diesel Harmonic Dampers For The Powerstroke Diesels

Fluidampr Diesel Dampers are ideal for anyone looking for a replacement damper to the individual looking for a superior harmonic balancer for a diesel engine with increased power. From stock power to a full-blown competition motor Fluidampr harmonic crankshaft balancers have you covered. A standard stock damper is considered a wear item and diesel engine performance upgrade drastically increases the destructive torsional vibrations produced with every single power stroke of an internal combustion engine.

Fluidampr manufacturers American Made High Performance Harmonic Dampers for these Ford Super Duty Truck Engines:

Why Do I Need A Performance Harmonic Balancer / Crankshaft Damper? The installation of any performance parts that increase the engine's power output or torque, such as intake, rods, pistons, flywheel, flexplate, fuel pump, injectors, exhaust, cams, and any ECM changes typically will increase in torsional vibration magnitude and frequency. These performance upgrades also increase the torsional vibrations above a level the OEM damper was not designed to handle. A stock harmonic balancer is tuned for a 50hz peak variance at a particular power level. Alter any of the engines rotating assembly parameters, and it may leave your critical engine components unprotected when torsional vibration is at its peak.

Signs that your OEM stock vibration damper is now failing:

The bonded rubber on the harmonic balancer is now cracked or cracking.
It is bulging or missing rubber between the hub and outer ring.
Age and repeating heat cycles have caused the rubber to degrade.
The driver or occupants notice an increased level of vibrations.

Signs that the OEM stock vibration damper has failed:

A collective failure will be the outer ring separating from the hub causing damage inside the engine bay.
A failing damper produces a noticeable increase in the level of the in-cab vibrations.
The wobble of your damper is apparent during engine operation.
The Damper's outer ring is separating from the hub.

Due to the countless combinations of performance upgrades, the simplest and most cost-effective solution for controlling bad torsional vibrations is to install a Fluidampr performance diesel damper. By design, Fluidampr viscous vibration dampers protect your engine from torsional vibrations across a broad range of frequencies and power levels. The sooner a Fluidamper performance viscous damper is installed, the more you’ll benefit from its protection, performance, and the ability to ensure long term engine life.

What exactly does a Harmonic Balancer Do?

The harmonic balancer job is to control the destructive crankshaft torsional vibration that is produced with each power stroke of the engine during the combustion process. The power cycle of the engine generates a twist and rebound effect upon the crankshaft, which causes torsional vibrations or harmonic RPMs. Torsional vibrations are the end-to-end twisting or rebound motion exerted on the crankshaft during each power stroke. A torsional harmonic balancer controls these forces and allows for increased valve train and timing efficiency. The other benefits obtained by the installation of a viscous crankshaft damper are a reduction in the wear of critical engine components such as main bearings, oil pump, and the crankshaft itself.
