Pivot is a force element of the machinery which is a steel pivot axis of the hinge connections.

Pivot and its bushing form a pivot unit that provides control for the car fore wheels direction, and comfortable driving a vehicle.

The bushing and pivot function under conditions of high friction which causes parts scuffing, and gap forming between them.  As a result of high loads cracks appear on the axes, the parts deform.

The damaged pivot unit operating leads to complications in driving a car, uneven tires wearing-off, unwanted sounds during motion (noises and squeaks at wheel turning) as well as difficult turning the steering wheel. Elements of this mechanism cannot be repaired, and require replacement in case of wear.

In order to extend service lifetime of the machinery's pivots and bushings, the producers of the automotive components use MODENGY 1005 anti-friction solid-film coating. It forms a resistant dry lubrication layer on the parts which significantly reduces friction and wear of the parts, as well as makes their mounting and dismantling easier.

This product is applied by standard painting methods, and gets polymerized at heating. It requires no renewing, and protects the parts for the entire term of their functioning.
