How many categories are car wheels divided into?
There are four common materials: steel wheels, aluminum alloy wheels, magnesium alloy wheels, and carbon fiber composite wheels.
Steel wheels are made of steel and are also a relatively common material. The advantages of steel wheels are low cost and low cost, but you get what you pay for, its heat dissipation ability is very poor, and it is easy to rust in cloudy and rainy days.
The main material of the aluminum alloy wheel hub is aluminum, and it is made of metal materials such as manganese and magnesium. Compared with the steel wheel hub, it is lighter, so the car with the aluminum alloy wheel hub will be more fuel-efficient.
The main material of magnesium alloy wheels is magnesium, and other metal materials are added. This material is the lightest, so it is now loved by car owners. It has better shock absorption performance, and is easy to dissipate heat and resist corrosion.
The carbon fiber composite wheel is made of a composite material, so its cost is relatively high. But on the other hand, its noise resistance is better, and it is easy to repair even if it is damaged.
How to distinguish the material type of the wheel hub?
The important part of the car is composed of the wheel hub. According to the material, the automobile wheel hub is divided into two types: steel wheel hub and alloy wheel hub. These two kinds of wheels have their own advantages and disadvantages.
The advantages of steel wheels are that the manufacturing process is simple, the cost is relatively low, and the ability to resist metal fatigue is super, which is both cheap and strong. Compared with its shortcomings: there is no appearance, it is ugly, and the weight is relatively large, which is much heavier than the alloy wheel material. Its inertia resistance is very large, and it is also poor in heat dissipation, and it is easy to rust.
The alloy wheel hub just makes up for the shortcomings of the steel wheel hub. The alloy wheel hub has very light weight, very small inertial resistance and high production accuracy. When driving at high speed, the deformation during rotation is small, and its inertial resistance is smaller than that of the steel wheel hub, which helps to improve the performance of straight-line driving, thereby reducing the rolling resistance of the tire and reducing oil consumption. Its thermal conductivity is 3 times that of the steel wheel, and its heat dissipation performance is good.
Today's original alloy wheels in the wholesale market of automotive supplies generally use aluminum alloys as the main body, but some modified wheels will choose chromium, titanium and other elements as the basic materials in order to meet certain requirements and visual improvement. However, the price of alloy wheels is much more expensive than that of steel wheels. However, in some low-level original automakers, steel wheels will only be matched with low-end models, and relatively expensive alloy wheels are standard on high-end cars.
