MEYLE-HD Flex Disc Now Available in Ready-to-Install Repair Kit

MEYLE now offers 22 applications for the MEYLE-HD flex disc, covering more than 19 million vehicles worldwide.

Through its collaboration with BOGE Elastmetall, MEYLE is offering its MEYLE-HD flex disc in a ready-to-install “smart” repair kit consisting of a high-quality flex disc and the corresponding installation materials.

Optimized materials, including a special rubber blend and exceptional thread stability inside the flex disc, ensure better performance and an above-average service life, according to Hamburg, Germany-based MEYLE.

“A defective flex disc can pose a high safety risk and, in extreme cases, cause the flex disc to break off – with far-reaching consequences for the vehicle and driver,” MEYLE explained in a news release. “The collaboration between MEYLE and BOGE has resulted in a flex disc that, due to its unique technical features and sophisticated function characteristics, is especially durable and reliable. A reduction in peak torques as well as damping and insulation of wave acoustics during load-change reactions make the flex disc exceptionally efficient.”

The materials of the spare part boast special characteristics, according to the company.

“The innovative and optimized winding technology as well as enhanced push-and-pull characteristics reduce inner friction, which in turn ensures an exceptionally long service life for the flex disc,” MEYLE said. “Compared with conventional materials, optimized thread stability offers a higher breaking load.”

The full-surface, comprehensive thread coating makes the flex disc stronger. The optimized rubber blend used in the MEYLE-HD flex discs can withstand temperatures of up to 130 C (270 F), according to the company.

MEYLE now offers 22 applications for the MEYLE-HD flex disc, covering more than 19 million vehicles worldwide.
