In the automotive clutch system, the fork serves as the "critical bridge" connecting the driver's operation to the power shift, and its performance directly affects the smoothness of gear shifting, response speed, and service life. INAF ZNAF, a brand with years of experience in the automotive parts industry, has launched a new fork product based on its profound understanding of the collaboration logic of the clutch system. This new fork, which embodies innovative technology and meticulous craftsmanship, will bring a superior clutch control experience to car owners and manufacturers worldwide, marking a new chapter in the upgrade of clutch components.
I. Innovative Structural Design: Unlocking New Dimensions of Control
The new fork from INAF ZNAF has achieved a breakthrough in structural design. Addressing the common issue of deformation and rapid wear caused by uneven force distribution in traditional forks, the R&D team adopted a "bionic mechanical structure" and optimized the force trajectory of the fork arm through finite element analysis technology. The stress concentration areas were strengthened, ensuring that the force is evenly distributed throughout the fork body when it is pushed, significantly reducing local wear.
Moreover, the contact area between the fork and the clutch bearing is designed with an "arc-shaped fit", increasing the contact area by 30% compared to the traditional flat contact. This not only reduces the pressure per unit area but also avoids the stalling caused by contact deviation. Coupled with a precisely calibrated guide slot structure, the deviation of the fork's trajectory during reciprocating motion can be controlled within 0.1mm, ensuring that each push of the clutch bearing is precise and smooth, making gear shifting crisp and smooth.
II. Robust Material and Craftsmanship: Setting a New Benchmark for Durability
The outstanding performance of the new fork is attributed to INAF ZNAF's pursuit of excellence in materials and craftsmanship. In terms of raw materials, traditional ordinary steel is abandoned in favor of imported high-strength alloy steel, with a tensile strength of up to 1200MPa and a yield strength exceeding 900MPa. Compared to traditional forks, the anti-deformation ability is enhanced by 40%, and it can maintain stable mechanical properties even in extreme conditions of -30°C or 150°C, eliminating the risk of material brittleness or softening due to temperature changes.
In manufacturing, the new fork adopts a "hot forging + precision cold processing" dual process. The hot forging stage is completed in one go by a multi-station forging press, ensuring a tighter grain arrangement within the metal and enhancing overall toughness. The cold processing stage uses a five-axis CNC machine for high-precision cutting, with a surface roughness controlled below Ra0.8μm, ensuring dimensional accuracy and reducing friction with other components. Additionally, the fork surface is treated with a "nano-ceramic coating", with a hardness of up to HV1200 and a 50% increase in wear resistance, effectively resisting wear and corrosion during long-term use and extending service life.
III. Seamless System Integration: Empowering New System Efficiency
As a core component of the clutch system, the new fork from INAF ZNAF forms a "golden match" with the brand's clutch bearings. The R&D team developed and tested both components simultaneously during the design phase to ensure that the push angle, contact area of the fork, and the force characteristics of the clutch bearing are perfectly matched. When the driver presses the clutch pedal, the new fork responds quickly and smoothly pushes the clutch bearing, achieving precise power disconnection and connection, and avoiding gear shifting jolts and abnormal noises caused by component mismatch.
This "system-level integration" advantage not only enhances the overall performance of the clutch system but also reduces the complexity of maintenance and replacement. Whether for original equipment by car manufacturers or for after-market repairs and replacements, choosing the new combination of INAF ZNAF's fork and clutch bearing from Qite requires no additional adjustment and can be quickly installed, significantly improving assembly efficiency while ensuring the long-term stable operation of the clutch system.
4. Comprehensive coverage of scenarios, meeting diverse new demands
INAF ZNAF's new fork from Qite, with its outstanding comprehensive performance, achieves full-scenario compatibility. For family sedans, its lightweight design (15% lighter than traditional forks) reduces the force required to operate the clutch pedal, making frequent gear changes in urban traffic jams or for female drivers easier. For SUVs and off-road vehicles, its reinforced material and structure can handle the intense vibrations in complex terrains, ensuring the stability and reliability of the clutch system. For commercial vehicles, its high wear resistance and long-lasting durability can reduce maintenance frequency during heavy loads and long-distance transportation, lowering operating costs.
In addition, the new fork offers a variety of customization services for different models, precisely matching the mainstream MT manual transmissions and AMT semi-automatic transmissions in the market, meeting the personalized needs of different vehicle models and transmission types, providing more flexible and professional parts solutions for the automotive industry.
5. Brand quality endorsement, delivering a new promise of peace of mind
The launch of INAF ZNAF's new fork from Qite continues the brand's strict quality standards. Each fork must pass "three rigorous tests": the first is a 100,000-cycle fatigue test to simulate the gear-shifting frequency throughout the vehicle's life cycle, ensuring no deformation or wear; the second is a high and low temperature cycle test to verify performance stability in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to 180°C; the third is a dynamic load test to simulate the impact loads in different road conditions, ensuring the fork can still function normally in sudden situations.
With decades of experience in automotive parts manufacturing and the accumulation of millions of satisfied customers worldwide, the launch of INAF ZNAF's new fork is not only an upgrade of the product but also a practice of the brand's philosophy of "quality-driven, serving travel". In the future, the brand will continue to focus on user needs, innovate continuously, and bring more high-quality parts to the automotive industry, making every gear shift more reassuring and smoother.
INAF ZNAF's new fork from Qite has officially launched. We sincerely invite global car manufacturers, repair service providers, and car owners to experience this "control upgrade" surprise together. Choosing the new fork means choosing more precise power switching, more durable quality assurance, and a more comfortable driving experience, starting every journey with "smooth gear shifting"!
