What Material Should Be Chosen for Engine Guard Plates?
1 Answers
Engine guard plates should be made of hard plastic, resin, iron, or aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy guard plates are lightweight and high-strength. Plastic guard plates have low manufacturing costs and are the lightest option, while plastic-steel and steel types are mostly used in high-intensity off-road vehicles. Installing these types of guard plates on ordinary sedans and urban SUVs may easily increase fuel consumption. Engine guard plates are engine protection devices custom-designed for various vehicle models. Their primary purpose is to prevent mud from covering the engine, and secondly, to protect the engine from damage caused by impacts from uneven road surfaces during driving. Engine guard plates can prevent car breakdowns due to engine damage caused by external factors during travel.
