Novelis Inc. has unveiled its strongest automotive aluminium product to date – Advanz 7UHS-s701. The ultra-high-strength material is now available commercially to the global automotive industry. The product offers lightweighting potential of up to 40% over existing ultra-high strength, hot-formed steel solutions. It is designed for safety-critical structural applications in passenger cars that require high in-service strengths such as A and B pillar reinforcements and side impact door beams. Commercial and electric vehicles will also benefit from using this material, as it offers mass reduction to enable increased payload and longer battery range, while still meeting all crash, loading and overall design requirements.
