How Do Torque Converters Work?

Torque converters are hydraulic devices used in automatic transmissions to transmit power from the engine to the transmission. They work by utilizing a fluid coupling and a series of blades or vanes to transfer torque. Torque converters allow the engine to continue running while the vehicle is at a stop, without stalling. When the vehicle accelerates, the torque converter uses the force of the fluid to transfer power and multiply torque. At JEGS, we offer a range of torque converters, including automotive torque converters, aftermarket torque converters, and precision torque converters.
