Product Description
Automobile valve cover is an important part of the engine, which is used to close the valve chamber and provide support and protection for the valve mechanism. The material of valve cover has an important influence on the performance, durability and heat dissipation effect of engine. Common valve cover materials include:
1. Aluminum alloy:
Advantages: Aluminum alloy has light weight, high strength and good thermal conductivity, which can reduce the weight of the engine and improve the fuel economy and performance of the engine.
-Disadvantages: Compared with other materials, the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy may be slightly lower, and it is easy to be damaged.
2. Cast iron:
-Advantages: Cast iron has good wear resistance and compression resistance, and can provide better support and protection.
-Disadvantages: Compared with aluminum alloy, cast iron is heavier, which may increase engine load and affect fuel economy.
3. Steel:
-Advantages: Steel has high strength and wear resistance, and can provide better protection and support.
-Disadvantages: Compared with aluminum alloy and cast iron, steel is heavier, which may increase the engine load.
4. Titanium alloy:
-Advantages: Titanium alloy has extremely high strength and corrosion resistance, and at the same time, it has the characteristics of light weight, which can provide excellent performance and durability.
-Disadvantages: high cost, complicated manufacturing process and difficult maintenance and replacement.
To sum up, different materials of valve covers have their own advantages and disadvantages, and vehicle manufacturers need to comprehensively consider the engine design requirements, performance requirements and cost considerations when selecting materials. According to the actual situation, the most suitable material is selected to manufacture the valve cover to ensure the performance, stability and durability of the engine.
