What are the materials of the radiator?
There are two main types of car radiators: aluminum and copper, the former for general passenger cars, the latter for large commercial vehicles.
Automotive radiator materials and manufacturing technology are developing rapidly. Aluminum radiator with its obvious advantages in material lightweight, in the field of cars and light vehicles gradually replace the copper radiator at the same time, copper radiator manufacturing technology and process has been greatly developed, copper brazed radiator in passenger cars, construction machinery, heavy trucks and other engine radiator advantages are obvious. The radiators of foreign cars are mostly aluminum radiators, mainly from the perspective of protecting the environment (especially in Europe and the United States). In new European cars, the proportion of aluminum radiators is an average of 64%. From the perspective of the development of automobile radiator production in China, the aluminum radiator produced by brazing is gradually increasing. Brazed copper radiators are also used in buses, trucks and other engineering equipment.
