Automotive aluminium sheets for sale of high safety rate

Automotive aluminium sheets are currently a very important manufacturing material in automobiles. We all know that aluminum is not as strong as steel, and cars are products that require a very high safety factor. So can we use aluminum at all? Is automotive aluminium sheet safe? Which aluminum plate should we use in which part of the car? Today we will introduce you to it.

The safety of drivers and passengers is an absolute top priority. One description of the image of the safe zone is the concept of a "safety cage." The parts that make up the "safety cage" include A-pillars, B-pillars, upper and lower thresholds, door impact beams and so on. The strongest materials on the car body, such as press stamping steel and high-grade advanced high-strength steel, are used here. The material requirements here are very high, so it is not possible to use automotive aluminium sheets for the time being. This is partly because the place needs materials strong enough to intrude on the safety cage so that the amount of intrusion into the safety cage is small and does not harm the passengers. On the other hand, in this small invasion process, it is still hoped that enough energy can be absorbed and the material is not destroyed. In this section, automotive aluminium sheets will be used relatively rarely. But they are usually used in flexible packaging of lithium batteries, car frames, and some other locations. Keep in mind that the kinetic energy of a collision can be absorbed by people if it is not absorbed by the parts. The most important thing in a collision is not the degree of deformation of the car parts, but the safety of people.

Covers such as doors and hoods have very low requirements for strength, and the most important is the requirement for stiffness deformation. So he can use Automotive Aluminium Sheets for manufacturing. Ordinary mild steel or 6 series aluminum plate can be used here. The weight reduction effect of the aluminum plate is evident in these parts. However, because the formability of aluminum is not good enough, if a small scratch occurs, the automotive aluminium sheet cannot be repaired, and can only be replaced. In this regard, the steel plate is much more convenient. Haomei Aluminum provides a variety of automotive aluminum sheets for sale, if you have a need, please contact us.
