E50 motor Kit Sintered bronze bushing. Thorens td 124 135 224

E50 motor revision kit for Thorens TD 121 124 135 184 224

Complete rebuild kit for the Thorens E50 motor (Thorens TD 121, 124 mk1/mk2, 135 mk1/mk2, 224). It includes:

-             2 sintered motor bushings (pre impregnated with oil and ready to replace the old ones)

-             4 felt rings (oil reservoirs)

-             1 Delrin thrust pad

-             6 rivets 

The Thorens E50 motor bushings are a product of absolute excellence manufactured exclusively by Audiosilente for its customers.

Custom produced in Germany using heat and pressure to fuse metallic powder into a mold, our bushings assure maximum, even flow of oil from the felt washers, through the bushing and finally to the motor rotor. The full running surface of the rotor must have an uninterrupted oil film to achieve optimal performance, low friction and lower operating temperature. The felt pads are obtained by die-cutting high-quality felt, which is essential for retaining the oil that will be exchanged with the bushings to maintain a lubricant film around the crankshaft over time. The thrust pad replacement and new rivets for closing the covers complete the overhaul kit. The felt rings have to be soaked in synthetic oil with a viscosity of 0-15 W

 A product of absolute excellence offered exclusively by Audiosilente. 

This offer is for a complete rebuild kit for your Thorens E50 motor

(THORENS TD 124 series 1/2 - 135 - TD 121 - TD 224 - TD 184):

2 sintered bronze bushing with oil impregnated 22 % oil

like original + 4 felt rings + 6 mini rivets ) so they are ready to use.

Audiosilente is proud to announce we are now producing true, 

sintered (heated and pressed from metallic powder)

bronze bushings, using the same process Thorens used in the 1960’s! 

Using heat and pressure to fuse metallic powder into a precision 

part is not the cheapest way, but it is the best way.

Thorens made true sintered bushings, so 

why do other companies only offer bored bushings? 

Because they are cheaper to make! 

Remember, “sintered” means heat pressed from powder.

AudioSilente has spared no expense 

to bring you the finest bushings on the market today.  

We have worked with metallurgists to reproduce

 the original bronze alloy mix and with other 

Thorens restoration experts to confirm the original

 Thorens parts measurements.

 We have secured the services of one of the finest companies,

 experts in creating true sintered bronze parts, 

to make our molds and the parts you see here.

Our process produces a part with BETTER tolerance than the Thorens original.

  Custom produced in Germany, our bushings are checked every 

100 units to confirm tolerance within 0.004 millimeters! 

No other process produces a part with the same porosity,

 the ability to hold as much oil as the Thorens original (22%). 

Porosity is only part of what assures proper lubrication. 

The capillary system of the bushing

 must be perfect through-and-through to assure maximum, 

even flow of oil from the felt washers,

 through the bushing and finally to the motor rotor. 

The full running surface of the rotor MUST have an uninterrupted oil film. 

This is key to achieving optimal performance,low friction 

and lower operating temperature. There is ZERO chance of a 

production drill smearing the inside of our bushings and closing the oil pores because 

NO DRILLS are used in creating AudioSilente bushings! 

There is ZERO chance of drill bit marks marring the running 

surface of the bushing either - again - NO DRILLS! 

Your E50 rebuild kit also includes four felt washers, 

one PVC thrust pad and six rivets that replace the original Thorens rivets.

AudioSilente’s kit includes these rivets instead

of screws because rivets work better in this application,

due to the motor’s significant thermal expansion.
