Steering Rack Function

The rack forms the main part of what is known as rack and pinion steering system. Together with other parts, it helps a driver to control the direction of a vehicle. The rack is one of the most important safety parts in vehicles that house the rack and pinion steering mechanisms. Its two main functions are:

To help convert a driver’s rotational input at the steering wheel to liner motion that turns the wheels.
Provide gear reduction through the small pinion and larger rack gear. This helps a driver to use less effort to control a vehicle.

Power Steering Rack

A powered steering rack simply means one that uses a steering assist system. The system is usually either electrical or hydraulic. Each mechanism offers specific benefits and drawbacks, as we will see next.
