AUTOMOTIVE SHEET definition
AUTOMOTIVE SHEET means aluminum Sheet products destined or intended for use in or principally related to the production of body panels (including closures, skin, hoods, decks, lids and fenders) and Sheet-based body-in-white structures for road vehicles;
AUTOMOTIVE SHEET means materials used in a variety of components and assemblies that are utilized to construct a completed vehicle. Applications include parts of the Body-in-White (BIW) structure, the closure panels (doors, hoods, fenders, deck lids, roofs), the engine compartment, the passenger compartment, the exhaust and supporting heat management systems and miscellaneous bracketry/ reinforcements. Typical alloys used for Automotive Sheet purposes include the 5XXX (non-heat treatable) and 6XXX (heat treatable) alloy families. Structural applications (and some closure panels) of Automotive Sheet also typically include the requirement for the sheet surface to be chemically treated prior to the vehicle assembly process. Automotive Sheet includes automotive sheet material manufactured using both the direct chill ingot manufacturing process as well using the Micromill™ alloys and process.
