EMT magnesium alloy steering wheel adopts magnesium alloy lightweight material, which has many remarkable characteristics and brings excellent experience to drivers and passengers.
In terms of material characteristics, the low density of magnesium alloy significantly reduces the weight of the steering wheel, which is about 30%-50% lighter than the traditional steel steering wheel. At the same time, magnesium alloy has high specific strength and specific stiffness, which can ensure that the steering wheel has sufficient structural strength and stability while reducing weight, and can effectively withstand various forces during driving. In addition, magnesium alloy also has good shock absorption and impact resistance, which can better absorb vibrations during driving.
These characteristics bring excellent experience to drivers and passengers. The reduction in weight makes the steering wheel more lightweight and flexible to operate. Drivers can save more effort when steering, especially in scenarios such as low-speed driving and parking, which can significantly reduce operational fatigue. The high strength and stability provide a solid safety guarantee for drivers, and can effectively protect the safety of drivers and passengers in emergency situations. The good shock absorption performance reduces the vibration transmitted from the road bumps to the steering wheel, improves driving comfort, and makes the driving process more stable and pleasant.
