Introducing our newest heavy-duty flywheel rotor for Polaris
500cc ATVs.
Anyone who rides or repairs the Polaris 500cc
ATV's is probably familiar with the flywheel problems common to these
models. Most of these bikes will have at least one flywheel failure in
their lifetime so far. Low-quality epoxy was used on OEM flywheels to
secure the magnets to the rotor body. Over time and many heat cycles, the
epoxy fails to allow the magnets to come loose and contact the stator,
potentially causing catastrophic damage.
For years, service shops
& dealerships have offered low-cost repairs for Polaris flywheels to
save the 400$+ OEM replacement. This sounds like a great idea at first, but
there are some serious issues!
The common repair is using JB
Weld© Marine Blue Epoxy to reattach the loose original magnets or to
install new ones. Epoxy fixes do repair flywheels in the short term if they
are done correctly. However, this kind of repair can easily cause immediate
problems and impact long term reliability of your ATV.
A
Heavy Duty Flywheel to the rescue!
New RMSTATOR&trade
heavy-duty flywheel rotor for Polaris ATVs is a well-priced solution to
problems with the OEM flywheel, and an excellent alternative to all the
mechanical troubles you can encounter with a
repair.
-
Built to OEM size - Fits
precisely in your ride: install it and forget it
-
Improved
epoxy - Uses high-temperature epoxy that is stronger than
OEM, eliminating the possibility of magnet
detachment
-
High-grade steel capping
- Prevents harsh additives in motor oil from degrading the
epoxy attaching the magnets. Though extremely unlikely, if a magnet did
ever come loose, it would remain in the sleeve preventing contact with the
stator
-
Precise balancing - Eliminates
crankshaft vibrations for longer engine longevity
-
Shop
with confidence - All products are
tested
Don't waste time with temporary solutions, and start
fixing your ride like a pro!
Why cheap repairs won't
work?
Quick stronger epoxy fixes do repair flywheels in
the short term. It might, however, impair long term performance and
reliability of your ride.
-
Remaining OEM
magnets: Original magnets remaining can still come loose at
any time.
-
Magnet alignment: The alignment
of magnets around the flywheel is critical for proper stator operation.
Even very fine misalignment will reduce stator efficiency
significantly.
-
Magnet spacing: Excessive
epoxy or incorrect magnet spacing around the flywheel can easily affect the
flywheel balance. This can cause stator contact or even crankshaft
damage.
-
Incorrect replacement magnets: The
magnetic field strength of new magnets MUST match the originals. Stator
failure can occur quickly with stronger magnets and stator output can be
decreased significantly using weaker magnets.
-
Wrong epoxy
properties: Epoxy that is not rated to permanently handle
high temperatures and oil immersion can quickly cause a serious
failure.
-
Oil contamination: Wrong epoxy for
the application can also contaminate the crankcase oil, damaging the
motor.
Please Note:
- All electrical components must
be fitted by a qualified technician.
- Before fitting electrical
components ensure the root cause of the original failure has been
addressed.
- The absence of either of points 1 or 2 above, will void
any warranty.
