Description
The McCray Racing strut bar is made from rectangular aluminum, 1"x3" OD Tube with 1/8" thick wall. Very strong yet light stuff. The science is in the bend. Mandrel bending of this size rectangular material is unheard of.
McCray Racing's design achieves extremely high torsional resistance by eliminating the kinks that typically come with bending rectangular aluminum. Until now, others have been un-able to effectively use this material. If kinks are present in bends (regardless of material) a natural joint/flex point is created in the smashing created by inadequate bending methods. Imagine a recyclable paper straw after a few minutes in your drink pinched by the cup lid...
Kinked metal acts the same. A smashed kink bend in rectangular aluminum essentially tricks itself into original shape/position reorientation when heat/torsion (engine bay temps & corners) are applied. With kinks in the bend present, material acts like a knee with a longer then required bungee cord instead of cartilage.
McCray Racing's kink-less bend method results in the strongest bracing that weighs ~50% less then OE and any aftermarket brace available for the 2015+ Mustang.
