FEATURES:
- What is the Strut Tower Bar
Strut Tower Bar is a standard item for body reinforcement. It will stabilize suspensions behavior by preventing body from twisting at cornering. This is particularly effective with old models.
Fitting a Strut Tower Bar to front section of a car will improve steering response. And also improves controllability of the car when fitted at the rear section as rear sections behavior becomes more recognizable.
Installations of these are easy, prices are reasonable, and most of all it enhances your cars appearance.
- Merit of the CARBING Strut Tower Bar
1. To make high rigidity by using oval shaft.
CARBING utilizes A6063 for aluminum type models and STKM13 for steel type models, along with original design, to create a unique strut bar that is both strong and lightweight.
It is known that aluminum is softer than steel. By increasing wall thickness, as well as the thickness of the bracket section, CARBING is able to create a unique strut bar with the strength of steel, but the weight of aluminum.
2.Shaft and Brackets are welded together to optimize the force distribution for maximum rigidity.
CARBING strut bars are fully welded, creating extremely high rigidity and reducing weight. Every single product is hand welding by skilled welders.
As a result CARBING strut bars are some of the most beautiful looking and superb quality strut bars.
3. Brackets uses 4.5 to 5.0mm thick base plate for material strength.
Bracket thickness is 4.5~5.0mm that thickness makes enough strength and rigidity. Brackets back-surface is same shape as strut towers top-end.
Between strut tower and strut bars base plate there is no space because CARBING measured each car for each product.
4. Type of Variations.
Type I:
All welded constriction 2 point shaped strut bar.
This is the CARBING standard strut bar.
Type II:
Added extra anchor to the firewall.
All welded constriction 3 point triangulation shaped structure.
Type D:
Separated 2 point shaped strut bar.
Its shaft and bracket are separated. Only for vehicles that have difficulty of installation.
Type V:
Added extra anchor to the firewall.
All welded constriction V shaped 3 point structure.
Type R:
All welded constriction 2 point strut bar.
3050f shaped main shaft is applied.
20~30% increased its rigidity more than standard.
Type RSP:
Added extra anchor to the firewall. All welded constriction 3 point triangulation of structure.
3050f shaped main shaft is applied.
20~30% increased its rigidity more than standard
5. About a bolt joint.
For some cars that have a minimum space or difficulty of installation, main bar and basement are separated.
Usually conventional type of strut bar connects between bar and basement by one bolt and nut, but strong stress input will relief stress and allow to move its basement because of pushing stresses from suspensions and therefore it doesnt make a good result.
CARBING strut bar use twin bolt method that makes almost same rigidity as welded joint.
6. Role of a master cylinder stopper.
A master cylinder stopper regulates movement of firewall at braking and also makes grate feeling of pedal touch control.
It is a recommended item for a parson who wants to get a break control that is more accurate reaction and quick response of pedal input force.
