Material Composition | Heavy-duty trucks needing high load capacity | Cast Iron (Industry, ASTM A48, 400 MPa tensile strength) → Forged Steel (▲ Base, 500 MPa) → Composite Steel (▲▲ Advanced, 600 MPa) | Enhanced strength and wear resistance; Base: 25% stronger than Industry; Advanced: 50% stronger than Industry | Base: 10% heavier; Advanced: 30% cost increase due to composite technology |
Pressure Rating | High-pressure engine systems (e.g., diesel engines) | 200 bar (Industry, ISO 10768) → 250 bar (▲ Base) → 300 bar (▲▲ Advanced) | Supports extreme engine loads; Advanced handles 50% higher pressure than Industry | Advanced may require specialized gaskets or installation expertise |
Durability | Long operational hours (e.g., long-haul trucks) | 300,000 cycles (Industry, ISO 14362) → 500,000 (▲ Base) → 750,000 (▲▲ Advanced) | Reduces replacement frequency; Base lasts 66% longer; Advanced doubles Industry lifespan | Base: 20% cost increase; Advanced: 50% cost premium |
Temperature Resistance | Harsh environments with high engine temps | Up to 150°C (Industry, ASTM E1461) → 200°C (▲ Base) → 250°C (▲▲ Advanced) | Withstands extreme conditions; Advanced operates in 66% hotter environments than Industry | Advanced may risk brittleness at peak temps |
Compatibility | Fleets with mixed engine models | Single model fit (Industry) → 3+ models (▲ Base) → Cross-brand (▲▲ Advanced, fits 5+ models) | Reduces inventory needs; Advanced supports 66% more engine types than Base | Base: Requires validation for non-Weichai engines; Advanced: 40% cost increase |
Installation Ease | Field repairs and quick maintenance | Standard tools (Industry) → Quick-fit (▲ Base, 50% faster) → Tool-free (▲▲ Advanced, ISO 14711) | Base cuts installation time by half; Advanced eliminates tool dependency | Advanced requires operator training for alignment |
