Auto parts are the units that make up the entire car and the products that serve the car. Parts, fasteners, components (including standards) and assemblies that are suitable for use in automobiles are referred to as automotive parts. The concept includes varieties and specifications in addition to the name. Some are suitable for common parts of automobiles, and can also be used as automobile parts, such as bearings, general electrical equipment, etc.

auto parts

In a broad sense, auto parts refer to all the materials needed by auto maintenance production enterprises such as auto parts, auto maintenance materials, and auto supplies. All auto parts must be produced, transported, stored and sold according to specific standards, and different auto parts products have different product standards. This is a general feature common to auto parts products.

It is worth noting that today, there are more and more car brands, more and more types of cars, and more and more types of auto parts. Therefore, we must have a clear understanding of auto parts.

The vulnerable parts of the body mainly include the following categories:

Stringers: Bending deformation and cracking.

Evaporator and Housing: Severely bent or cracked on impact.

Cab: Corrosion of sheet metal skin, collision deformation, door collision deformation, glass damage, glass lifter damage, door lock damage, etc.

Fenders, brackets, front and rear wheel fenders: collision damage, vibration cracks, mud corrosion.

Bumpers, license plates, exterior mirrors: often damaged by collisions.

Trim strips, rocker panels, pillar panels; they are all fragile parts.

Auto parts are classified by standardization

Auto parts are divided into engine parts. There are five categories of chassis parts, main body and accessory parts, electrical and electronic products and general parts.

According to automotive terms and definitions, components include total sub-assembly units and parts.

(1) Component: a combination of component level or functional form composed of multiple sub-assemblies of multiple parts or any combination between them, and the part with component decomposition characteristics is an assembly.

(2) Sub-assemblies: combine the assembly process with two or more parts and sub-assemblies, where a pair of parts whose sum belongs to the assembly-level relationship is a sub-assembly.

(3) Sub-assembly: It consists of two or more components formed by assembly process or combination, and the part that has an assembly-level relationship with the sub-assembly is a sub-assembly.

(4) Unit body: It is a functional combination with functional characteristics composed of any combination of components. Usually, the part that can operate independently in different environments is a unit body.

(5) Component: It is a single finished product, a single component or a generally non-removable manufactured piece with two or more associated specified functions manufactured by an assembly process.
