CARBON COMPOSITE WHEELS MARKET

 

INTRODUCTION

Carbon wheels are made from carbon fiber reinforced plastics and are extremely lightweight. These wheels are widely used in luxury and premium vehicles to improve speed efficiency. The development of the premium and luxury automobile market will be aided by an increase in the number of Ultra-High and High Net Worth Individuals (HNWI).

 

They have numerous other advantages over traditional wheels, including high fatigue damage toughness and longevity, self-vibration dampening, greater grip, and high heat resistance. Carbon rims can also lead to significant savings on gas and lessen vehicle carbon footprint.

CARBON COMPOSITE WHEELS MARKET COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

As people become more concerned about climate change and global warming, the number of hybrid and electric vehicles on the road will expand. Carbon wheels help to minimise vehicle weight, fuel consumption, and charging time.

 

Furthermore, e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, Alibaba, and eBay will improve the availability and accessibility of the wheels, hence encouraging their adoption. In the approaching years, the market will be limited by high product costs. The wheels are five to six times more expensive than standard aluminium and magnesium alloy wheels.

 

Carbon Revolution Wheels is a leading mobiliser of the films externed deployer of solutions involving various industrial application and solutions requirements in the market. When compared to equivalent aluminium wheels, the one-piece carbon fibre wheels save between 40% and 50% of their weight.

 

Compared to aluminium wheels, the rims are much more than 40% lighter. This significant reduction throughout rotating unsprang mass results in a number of significant performance gains. Carbon Revolution carbon composite wheels increase the fuel efficiency and operating pleasure in a variety of ways.

 

JEC Group  is part of the component manufacture trending companies in the current industry. Its latest addition has been brought in through the 17-inch rims are comprised of superior carbon composite materials and Dymag’s latest technologies.

 

The rim is built of carbon composite, with soft curved edges for added strength and to reduce the wheel’s rotational weight.

 

The steerer tube are made of a solid billet of aluminium where toughness is a must, and the wheel is attached to the car using five pairs of titanium bolts for added strength and lightweight. This equates to a 212.5g weight savings per wheel, with each wheel screw weighting only 30.2g.
