What Is Automotive Felt Fabric? How Is It Used?
There are more than 1.4 billion cars on the road today. So, it is no surprise that the automotive industry is one of the largest in the world in terms of revenue and employment.
Each of these vehicles require a significant number of resources such as steel, rubber, plastic, and aluminum. These raw materials go into everything from the engine to the circuit boards that control the car’s onboard computer system.
One of the often-overlooked parts needed in manufacturing a car is automotive felt.
What Is Automotive Felt?
Automotive felt is any type of felt that goes into the manufacturing of automotive vehicles. Truthfully, this is a very broad definition as vehicles may use many different types of felt.
However, automotive felt differs from the ordinary felt that your grandma uses to make slippers in one important way – it has to be extremely precise.
Vehicle manufacturers are notorious for being extremely selective about the quality of materials that go into their vehicles. This is why manufacturers who work in the automotive industry need to ensure that every single piece of product that leaves their line needs to meet rigorous standards.
These standards are the same with automotive felt.
How Is Automotive Felt Used?
Automotive felt is used all throughout the vehicle from the engine to the trunk. And these applications are not all for the same purpose.
Some automotive felt is used as acoustical material to reduce the sound outside of the vehicle. Other felt is used as thermal insulation to keep parts of the engine from getting too hot.
