Abstract

A phaser with a rotor assembly having a pattern on an inner diameter that acts as a sealing land or divider between the advance supply port and the retard supply port. This pattern allows the advance supply ports and the retard supply ports to be on the same plane, allowing the overall axial length of the rotor to be shorter. The pattern is preferably formed onto the inner diameter of the rotor through net forming.
