Rearview Mirror Base
pt_040-ooh7yy-100v2f
Specifications
- Product Category: Automotive Structural & Housing Components
- Material: Automotive-Grade ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene; Optional UV-stabilized, flame-retardant, or PC+ABS blends)
- Manufacturing Process: High-Precision Plastic Injection Molding
- Structural Features: Integrated structural ribbing, counterbored mounting holes, wire harness routing channels, threaded insert bosses, and snap-fit joints
- Primary Function: Acts as the rigid structural foundation connecting the rearview mirror actuator to the vehicle door frame, securing internal gearboxes against driving vibration
- Applications: Exterior Power/Manual Rearview Mirror Base Assemblies, Camera Monitor System (CMS) Bracket Housings, Interior Rearview Mirror Mounting Brackets
Manufacturing Processes & Capabilities
- Anti-Warpage Tooling & Shrinkage Management: Tailored for complex structural geometries and reinforcing ribs; mold flow analysis optimizes multi-gate configurations and packing stages to eliminate sink marks and cooling warpage, maintaining strict planar flatness and datum-hole true position.
- Precision Bosses & Fastening Integrity: Accurately molds wire clips, self-tapping screw bosses, and snap clips with uniform wall thickness to prevent boss cracking; supports in-mold brass insert molding or ultrasonic staking for high pull-out torque retention.
Features & Advantages
- High Rigidity & Impact Damping: Engineered from high-impact ABS to deliver mechanical stiffness and vibration absorption, damping vehicle road vibrations to prevent mirror glass jitter at highway speeds.
- Weatherability & Thermal Dimensional Stability: Exhibits UV resistance and temperature tolerance, preserving dimensional fit and mechanical strength under solar heat and sub-zero winter conditions without warping or embrittlement.
- Surface Aesthetics & Secondary Processing: Features burr-free surfaces and uniform texture; provides bonding compatibility for secondary finishing processes, including automotive painting, electroplating, mold-texturing (graining), and ultrasonic welding.
