Abstract

Content: Aluminum alloy 7029 anodized sheet bumpers are currently being adopted by the automobile manufacturers because they are the most weight efficient and the easiest to form of all aluminum bumpers. The relative weight of aluminum bumpers is presented along with additional recent information on aluminum sheet bumpers. Such topics as alloy selection, design considerations, corrosion, forming and finishing are discussed.
