Materials and Testing

With experience gained over decades in Motorsport, DSPS Engineering always uses the optimum material for the application at hand.

Knowledge and field experience give us the ability to predict thermal toughness,  durability and more...

Different materials are used in different wastegates, material choice often being subject to Technical Regulations for each race category.

 

Optimised Combination of Materials

All assemblies created by DSPS Engineering are optimised from a material point of view, in order to achieve the best possible performance on track.

Every component is designed to be as mass efficient as possible, without compromising reliability.

Metal Alloys

Inconel 625 is used for all of the Wastegate Castings, whereas the ALS castings are usually Stainless Steel.

Aluminium components tend to be Al 2014A T6 or 7075 T6, depending on application and the Titanium components are all Ti 6Al4V.

Stainless Steel is used extensively and valve materials are either Stainless steel or Nimonic 80, depending on application.

 

Material Certification is stored witlh all components, so that DSPS Engineering can accurately trace batch numbers.

Metal Alloys

Testing

All parts and assemblies are checked throughout the production process, to ensure that optimum quality is maintained.

Wastegate assemblies can be tested to suit a customers requirements, as well as for condition monitoring.
