What are Strut Braces?

The strut braces are rigid structures, generally made in steel or aluminium, which are installed inside a car's engine bay, connecting the two suspension uprights.Β 

This component is particularly popular in rally and racing cars, but it also finds application in high-performance road vehicles.Β 

Its main purpose is to keep unchanged over time the original measurements of suspension geometry and of better absorb stress during the most intense driving phases, such as high-speed corners or evasive manoeuvres.

Advantages of their use

The installation of a strut brace offers a number of significant benefits for your rally car.

With an increase in frame stiffness, you get a greater accuracy in driving. The wheels maintain a optimal ground contact, allowing the pilot to more easily follow the desired trajectory.

During high-speed cornering, it is natural for the car's bodywork to lean outwards from the corner due to centrifugal force, causing a deformation in the suspension geometry.Β 

Thanks to the bars, this effect is considerably reduced, allowing for a Greater vehicle control and a safer, more stable ride. This in turn translates into lower lap times and more intuitive, responsive handling, leading to better track performance.Β 

Types of strut braces

Exist various types of strut braces, each designed for specific needs and vehicle types.Β 

In general, the two most common materials for making bars are steel (cheaper) and aluminium (higher performing).Β 

The strut braces are in most cases made tailored to a specific model in the car 500 Abarth, Alfa Romeo 147, BMW E46, and so on.Β 

In general, the bars are mounted on the front axle, but there are also universal models designed to be mounted on the rear axle with adjustable length.Β 

In conclusion, strut braces represent a smart investment for anyone looking to enhance the performance and safety of their rally vehicle.
