The manufacturing process of wheel spacers on the market is mainly based on forging and casting. Casting is hard-worked and slowly formed, while casting is where molten liquid metal is introduced into the mold for cooling and forming at one time. Forging takes more time and cost than casting.
The materials of wheel spacers are generally aluminum alloy and alloy steel. The density of alloy steel is 7.8, and the density of aluminum alloy is 2.8, which means that if these two materials are used to make wheel spacers of the same size and thickness, the weight of aluminum alloy will be 35% lighter than alloy steel. Aluminum alloy will be better for reducing the unsprung mass of the vehicle, and the vehicle acceleration and handling performance will be better.
Using different types of aluminum alloy materials, the tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation are also different
Taking 6061 as an example, the tensile strength of 6061-T6 that has undergone heat treatment (T) is about 2.5 times that of 6061, and the yield strength is even closer to 5 times. It is sufficient to use 6061-T6 or 7075-T6.
There are not many products in the market that can issue authoritative qualification inspection reports such as SGS, TUV, ISO, etc. Therefore, when purchasing, a standard is also formed, whether the products dare to be tested or not..
I would like to share something about installing 25mm+30mm BONOSS Forged Active Cooling Wheel Spacers (Formerly BLOX-sport) for my Mustang sixth gen S550 with you.
PCD: 5X114.3
CB: 70.5
Tightening Torque: 140 NM
minimum number of turns: 7.5 turns
Let's we see the different.
As you guys can see, compared with the original car, it has been greatly improved in appearance and stability.
If you have any other comments, please leave a message, I will study hard. Thank you for your reading.
