Forces generated by the engine and transmission.

The output arm on a steering gearbox. Also known as a Pitman arm.

A paint application method recommended on many Technical Data Sheets to eliminate patchy finishes in metallic and pearlescent basecoats. The atomising air pressure is reduced and the gun is held further from the surface. Providing the spray gun is then moved across the surface at a uniform speed, angle and distance, this technique should result in better orientation of the metallic and mica particles.

Resistors used to reduce voltage to a component.

Brake in which friction blocks or brake shoes lined with friction material are brought to bear on the periphery of a drum or cylinder. In most vehicle applications the shoes are brought into contact with the inner periphery of the drum.

A friction clutch that runs in an open housing. As distinct from a wet clutch that runs in an oil bath.

A paint having a very low solvent content which produces a gritty film appearance.

The resultant film thickness of a coating after it has reached its final state of drying or curing. Measured in microns.
