Abstract
A lever for a VTG guide vane arrangement of a radial turbine with a main body with a fork-shaped coupling section with two limbs. A wear-resistant contact block is arranged on an inner side of at least one of the limbs. The wear-resistant contact block is designed for operative engagement with an adjusting ring of the VTG guide van arrangement, giving rise to the effect of increased wear resistance at least in the region of the engagement with the VTG guide vane arrangement. Furthermore, a VTG guide vane arrangement having such a lever, a radial turbine having such a VTG guide vane arrangement, and a supercharging device having such a radial turbine.
