Helical Gear Differential with 9310 Alloy Steel Gears

The Wavtrac differential is a cutting-edge helical gear differential engineered and manufactured in the USA by Autotech Driveline. This torque-biasing differential is distinguished by its patented technology, which effectively mitigates wheelspin during unloaded wheel conditions. When an axle experiences zero load, the Wavtrac cam device generates internal load, ensuring drive is maintained by the gripping wheel, unlike open differentials that would lose traction. Constructed with superior strength in mind, the Wavtrac differential utilizes 9310 alloy steel gears housed within case-hardened steel bodies. This differential is designed to fit a specific range of BMW models, including the F10 550i, E90 335D (215K), E92 335iS DCT, E87 135i DCT, and E89 Z4 35i/35is DCT. It is important to note that some OEM applications for this differential may feature a welded ring gear and carrier, which will require additional machining for proper installation. Additionally, while the differential itself is a complete unit, installation kits are sold separately and may be required depending on the specific vehicle and its existing components.
