What Material Are Car Bumpers Made Of?
1 Answers
Car bumpers are made of plastic. The bumper is a safety device designed to absorb and mitigate external impacts, protecting the front and rear of the vehicle body. It consists of an outer panel, cushioning material, and a crossbeam. The outer panel and cushioning material are made of plastic, while the crossbeam is formed by stamping cold-rolled thin sheets (approximately 1.5 mm thick) into a U-shaped channel. The outer panel and cushioning material are attached to the crossbeam, which is then connected to the vehicle frame's longitudinal beams with screws, allowing for easy removal when needed. Methods for repairing bumper scratches include: 1. Applying toothpaste to shallow scratches and wiping gently with a soft cloth in a counterclockwise motion; 2. Spraying automotive scratch repair agent onto the scratches and wiping with a towel; 3. Using a touch-up pen to spray and fill the damaged area along the direction of the scratch, then applying fine wax after it dries.
