Fender Design

The fenders are an intricate sheet of metal covering the wheel well of your car. Fenders are designed in a manner to provide resistance against wind and other roadside debris . The car fender are located on either side of the front and rear wheels. The front car fenders begin where the front door hinges run and end just before the bumper. The rear car fenders begin where the back doors close and terminate before the back bumpers.

Types of Fenders :

There are two types of fenders.

Full Bumper Type

Half Bumper Type

Full Bumper Type :

This type of bumper is not commonly used because this design is more scrap producing one during manufacturing. The blank of steel or aluminum used to produce this type has more wastages. This type is not economically good to manufacture.

Half Bumper Type :

This types of fenders most commonly used. The con's of full bumper type is satisfied in this design, and the blank area of wastage while producing the part is drastically reduced by scrap management.

Purpoes of Fender :

Cleanliness : Protect the car, occupants and passers by from items, water, mud, snow, ice, thrown off the tires as you drive.

Safety : Protects pedestrain from the wheel, e.g. its better to be it by a laterally moving fender than a rolling tire, keeps loose, streaming items from being wrapped up in a rolling wheel.

Aerodynamics : Smooths the car profile so you don't get a lot of drag off the uncovered wheels. Some fenders are enclosed on the side for this.

General Appearance : Looks better with fender, gives a finished look, looks more streamlined.
