How One Hudy Grease Works for Both Parts of a Ball Differential
About this episode
This episode explores how Hudy Super Diff Grease can effectively work for both parts of a ball differential.
A ball diff (differential) usually needs two very types of grease for each zone. One for the thrust bearing assembly and another completely different for the balls on the main diff gear. 1up Racing, MIP (Moore's Ideal Products) , AE (Associated Electronics) Factory Team, JConcepts, and Tamiya are all very clear about this. So how was Hudy able to make one grease for both zones of the ball diff? In this episode of the RC Deep Dive podcast we do a chemical analysis of Hudy Super Diff Grease and explain the physics and material science of why this anomalous solution actually works so well.
