What does the car B-pillar refer to?
1 Answers
The car B-pillar refers to the vertical pillar between the driver's side window glass and the rear side window glass. Its blind spot is mainly on the right side of the vehicle, which may lead to collisions with vehicles driving normally on the right side. Cars are divided into A-pillars, B-pillars, and C-pillars. The A-pillar is the vertical pillar between the front windshield glass and the driver's side window glass, while the C-pillar is the vertical pillar between the rear side window glass and the rear windshield. The B-pillar is mainly used to support the roof, front and rear doors, and to assemble components such as seat belts and wiring. When the vehicle is impacted from the side, the B-pillar plays a protective role for the occupants inside the car. Thanks to high-tech materials such as carbon fiber and high-strength alloys, the B-pillar is widely used in the car body.
