What Are The Advantages of Aluminum Body Panels

A combination of factors like environmental pollution, fuel economy, and longer new energy vehicle range leads to a trend that automobiles are bound to be lightweight. The choice of automotive aluminum sheets has become the key to achieving automobile lightweight.

As we all know, the car body is mainly composed of the hood, the door, the front and rear wing panels, the bottom protection plate, the roof and other sealing components. These seals are made of aluminum sheet for car body, which can greatly reduce the overall weight of the car.

For the car door, hood and front and rear fenders, 6061 and 5182 aluminum plates are the two popular choices. According to the feedback from our customers, the stamping effect of 6061 and 5182 aluminum body panels are very good.

For the bottom protective plate and top plate of the car, 5083, 5754 and 5052 aluminum sheets are the common choices. Among them, 5083 and 5052 aluminum plates are the most widely used in these auto parts, and the actual effect is satisfying. Haomei Aluminum can offer aluminum body panels with the thickness range of 0.30-600mm and the width range of 150-2600mm.

There are three advantages of aluminum body panels:

1. Obvious weight reduction and energy saving effect. The use of aluminum sheet for automobile can reduce the weight of the vehicle by 10%. In addition, for every 100 kilograms of weight reduced, the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers can be reduced by 0.4 liters, carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced by 1 kilogram, and fuel efficiency can be increased by 6%-8%.

2. Excellent corrosion resistance. The oxide film naturally formed on the surface of the aluminum plate has good corrosion resistance, so the "all-aluminum body" will be more durable than the traditional steel body.

3. The automotive aluminum sheet can improve the comfort and safety of the cars. It reduces the weight of the automobile without reducing the load of the automobile, thereby reducing the center of gravity of the body, making the automobile driving more stable and comfortable.

At the same time, the aluminum plate for automobile body has good energy absorption capacity. Even if the deformation area of the front of the car is wrinkled in a collision, it can absorb a large amount of impact force, thereby protecting the driver and passengers.
