High-Strength Steel Plates

NOTE:
  • Only "Original Porsche parts" must be used for repair work! 

Body parts of high-strength steel contribute to better protection of the passenger compartment and thus increase protection of the passengers. In addition to improved crash safety, these parts also have a positive influence on fatigue strength. In terms of crash behavior, body parts made from high-strength sheet steel are characterised by their higher energy absorption. But this also means that higher reshaping force must be applied in reshaping work.
