Do New Cars Need Underbody Armor?
1 Answers
Choose underbody armor based on the owner's needs. If you frequently drive on special road conditions, installation is recommended. Underbody armor is a high-tech adhesive rubber asphalt coating that can be sprayed on parts of the car such as the chassis, fuel tank, and underbody guards. These areas are exposed to the air and prone to damage. The underbody armor quickly forms an elastic protective layer, providing excellent protection for the car's chassis. Here are the advantages of underbody armor: 1. Anti-corrosion: The car's chassis is exposed during daily use and can easily rust. When driving in humid environments, residual wash water on the chassis can corrode it over time, leading to rust. Applying underbody armor can prevent corrosion. 2. Stone chip protection: While driving, small stones can be kicked up by the tires. At high speeds, these stones can cause significant damage to the chassis. Underbody armor reduces the impact of these stones, protecting the chassis from being punctured and helping maintain its condition. 3. Vibration damping: The car's engine and wheels are fixed to the chassis, and they vibrate at the same frequency, reducing comfort. Underbody armor can dampen these vibrations, improving ride comfort. 4. Heat insulation and fuel savings: In summer, high ground temperatures can raise the interior temperature of the car. Underbody armor blocks some of this heat, preventing excessive heat from affecting comfort and reducing the need for air conditioning. This helps lower cooling time and improves fuel efficiency. 5. Noise reduction: At high speeds, tire noise and other noises can become noticeable. Underbody armor effectively reduces interior noise, providing a more comfortable ride.
