This gas-counterpressure structural-foam molded 1-piece rocker
panel has Class A surfaces front and back, solves gap and fit issues, and
eliminates the need for fasteners on the back. The fully recyclable 15%
talc-filled TPO eliminates 5 previous components, eliminates warpage, and
shows no surface porosity or sink marks. It offers increased strength and
passes all high-speed flutter tests, achievable with variable wall thicknesses
thanks to gas-counterpressure.
The final product eliminated 100% of the assembly labor and components
in the earlier multi-piece design and offered the highest quality and
durability at the lowest cost and weight.
