Material Story

High Qualified Materiales
for KURUTTO 4
1,
High durability of materials
Polyamid6

Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyamide

This material is more durable than general material, Polypropylene. Especially it is frictional and abrasion resistance. Furthermore, it stretches and doesn’t tend to be hard even at low temperature.This part is important because it receives impact of collision. That’s why we adopt Nylon 6 that is durable to meet stricter than ECE crash testing.

HTSS

High Tensile Strength Steel

This material has 1.3 times more durable than SPCC. It’s basically used for chassis and monocoque because it is light but durable.We use High Tensile because it has high durability but still light weight.

Shock absorbing material
EPS

Expanded Polystyrene

This material has high impact absorbing than general sponge material against strong impact. Non-combustibility is better than Expanded Polyethylene. It is used for bike helmet.EPS is adopted to increase impact absorbing function.If we use soft sponge material, it may not absorb impact well.

3,
Material for smooth rotation
Polyacetal

Expanded Polystyrene

This material has high self-lubrication compared to general plastic material. Furthermore, it has the best abrasion resistant among plastic materials. As for our previous model, it’s a little bit hard to rotate when a child ( 18kg ) is on. However, Polyacetal is introduced for smooth rotating to sliding part so that mom cam rotate with ease even child grows up.
