GF46.20-P-1000-01P Rack-and-pinion steering gear, function

Component Identification:





The drive pinion (4b) transmits the movement of the steering wheel to the gear rack (7) and then via the tie rods to the wheels.

The drive pinion (4b) has a spiral toothing. Since several teeth are always engaged at the same time, rack and pinion steering gear is wear-resistant and also has a very low noise level.
