Torque Converters: Why do we need to customize them?

by Melissa Langley⁽⁶²⁾

Ever wonder how cars with automatic transmission shift gears? The answer: torque converters. A torque converter is a fluid coupling device which acts as a clutch and gearshift for modern automatic cars.

Torque converters also have other functions aside from those two. These automotive devices are also responsible for separating the transmission from the engine, making it possible for the car to remain idle (engine running even if the vehicle is not moving); for the transmission and the engine to be connected making the transfer of power possible even while the car is in motion; and last but not the least, for power multiplication.

Such is the importance of torque converters that an estimated 75% of passenger cars all over the world use them. The use of this device has been proven to be advantageous to the car manufacturers, much more to the general public. Some of the listed benefits of this fluid coupling device include the following:

- user intervention is not necessary to start and stop a car;

- continuous variable transmission makes possible the faster and smoother car accelerations;

- vehicles run more steadily due to the weight of the torque converter that acts as an inertial flywheel;

- too much slipping do not easily wear, tear, and damage a torque converter;

- and transmission overheating is not likely to happen because of the large amounts of transmission fluid that torque converters can hold.

It may seem as if torque converters already make the lives of the car owners in Tampa very convenient. But there’s more. With professional help from special repair shops in Tampa, the advantages brought by torque converters can be customized to fit the specific needs of your car. This is the reason behind the growing trend of producing custom torque converters, as well as the steady increase in the number of car owners customizing their fluid coupling devices.
