Carbody & chassis applications

Since many years Sapa is 1st choice as extrusion supplier, when it comes to aluminium extrusion based body structure components – whether ready-to-build-in or as semi-finished extrusion shapes. Our extrusions and its alloys have been extensively used in many car models across the globe (i.e. Aston Martin, Mercedes, Audi, GM, Lotus, Volvo, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Fisker, BMW/Rolls-Royce, etc.). Since the use of aluminium extrusions and its behavior in the vehicle structure needs often tailor-made performance, our engineers with their long term expertise are the right ones to talk to. Together with our metallurgists at Sapa Technology we are continuously working on the best performance of extrusions for carbody and chassis applications in terms of ductility at high strength properties and best possible extrudability. Our extrusion process technology is key to be an outperformer in this field.
