Korea’s Nisshin and BASF jointly launch the world’s first steel-plastic hybrid suspension arm

On April 9, 2018, Korea's Nisshin introduced the world's first steel-plastic hybrid suspension arm for a new generation of electric vehicles.

The cantilever is made of BASF's high-performance polymer Ultramid polyamide plastic (PA6, 50% glass fiber reinforced), which reduces the weight by 15% compared to traditional stamped steel structures. Spherical joints made of Ultramid engineering plastic can greatly reduce friction and achieve better steering performance. In addition, the vibration damping performance of this cantilever is also superior to traditional metal booms, which can im
