The frame of a PBT roof rack has fastening components. The fastening components are fastened to the car roof’s intended connection locations or to the roof rails.
Along with a selection of roof racks that are universal, automakers also provide models that are specifically made for each type of vehicle. The specialised roof racks provide the best performance on the intended vehicle even though they cannot be fitted on other vehicles.
The hollow profile is the central component of every roof rack. Typically, it is constructed of aluminium. There are fewer roof racks constructed of galvanised sheet steel.
Because of its light weight and excellent load-bearing capability, aluminium racks are appealing. Although they are substantially heavier, steel racks often have a higher load-bearing capability.
TheGlobal automotive PBT roof frame market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
In the automotive business, panoramic roofs are becoming more and more popular. Panoramic roofs are at the top of the list of extras that car buyers look for when purchasing a new vehicle. This tendency coexists with the requirement to lighten all car parts in order to reduce CO2 emissions.
BASF and Grupo Antolin are addressing the new Engineering Plastic components for their interior applications. The car’s headliner, which is constructed of the extremely lightweight Polyurethane Elastoflex, incorporates the newly created panorama roof.
A structural bracket supports the headliner’s for a real sunroof opening. This is often made of thick steel. Currently, a metal replacement method is used with Ultradur High Speed. The Engineering Plastic is highly dimensionally stable and also has excellent mechanical qualities.
The Polybutylene Terephthalate that is PBT Ultradur High Speed in plastic frames for open panorama headliners has been successfully validated by both businesses.
These components’ innovative and modern design enables a weight savings of up to some percent when compared to comparable conventional options.
