MJJZ-62001 Aluminum Alloy Steering Knuckle
Original Product Information:
The steering knuckle, also known as the "kingpin," is one of the critical parts of an automobile's steering axle. It ensures stable driving and precise transmission of the driving direction. The function of the steering knuckle is to transfer and bear the front load of the car, supporting and driving the front wheels to rotate around the kingpin, thus allowing the car to steer. While driving, the steering knuckle is subject to varying impact loads, requiring it to have high strength. Our aluminum alloy steering knuckles are characterized by their lightweight and high strength, improving the vehicle's handling stability, saving energy, reducing fuel consumption, and lowering exhaust emissions.
