Camshafts are typically made from materials that offer high strength and wear resistance, such as cast iron, forged steel, or aluminum alloys. Cast iron is commonly used for its good machinability and durability, while forged steel provides enhanced strength and fatigue resistance. In high-performance applications, aluminum alloy camshafts may be employed for their lightweight properties. Additionally, some camshafts may be surface-treated or coated to improve wear resistance.
What else can I help you with?
Is the cam shaft in the differential?
no, the cam shaft is on the engine cylinder head..
What does the cam shaft censor do?
The cam shaft position sensor uses the "Hall Effect" to tell the ecu ( car's computer ) where the cam shaft is in it's rotation. This information is used by the ecu to fire off the coil ( or coils ) and the injectors at the correct time.
What is a cam mechanism?
A cam is an elliptical or tear-drop shaped form mounted to a rotating shaft. It is used to transfer rotating motion to linear motion. As the shaft rotates, the cam pushes on a rod that moves it back and forth as the rod follows the contour of the cam.
What are cam followers and what are they used for?
On some engines the cam-shaft does not directly operate the valves, but uses a lever (the Cam Follower) to transmit the force from the cam to the valve. Basically they are levers, and they are used to open the valves.

What does it mean when you have a VTECH system malfunction?
this probably means you have a worn cam shaft or cam shaft or the arm that hits the cam shaft to open the valve is worn. this is internal on the engine.
Speed ratio between cam shaft and crank shaft?
Cam spins at half the speed of the engine.
What is a cam chain on a Nissan 350Z?
cam chains are a chain the attach to the crankshaft and the cam shaft , the crankshaft is the shaft making the pistons go up and down the cam shaft makes the valves open and close, the crank shaft and cam shaft have to be aligned a certain way or the car will not fire, this is called "timing" . if your looking for where it is , its most likely in the front of the engine get a pro to look at it.
What does a cam sensor do on a Chrysler PT Cruiser?
It tells the computer the rotational location of the cam shaft. This info is used for fuel and ignition timing.
