Trucking Structural Components
Composite Materials for the Trucking Industry
The internal structural components that keep trucking and transportation running must stand up to the worst the road can dish out. That means materials must be strong, lightweight and fatigue resistant. Composite materials offer exactly these advantages for trucking industry designers and engineers. With help from Avient, light weighting and thin-walling of structural components can help fleets achieve greater levels of efficiency without compromising safety or power.
亮点
