Transportation Magnesium

Magnesium alloys are materials with advantages such as lightweight, shock absorption and heat dissipation. They are widely used in various components of automobiles, rail transportation, and two-wheeled vehicles, helping the industry to save energy, reduce emissions and improve performance.

In the transportation sector, every kilogram counts. A lighter vehicle performs better and uses less fuel or electric energy. Manufacturers are using magnesium alloys to trim the weight of engine components, wheels, transmission parts and interior structural parts. For example, a typical automobile gear might see a weight reduction of more than 30 percent when made with magnesium alloy instead of aluminum alloy.
