The XT8 chassis is CNC-machined from top-quality Swiss 3mm 7075 T6 hardcoated aluminum and is strategically machined in low-stress areas making it as light as you are able to without affecting strength or rigidity. Material underneath the engine, fuel tank, and diffs happens to be eliminated to allow the lowest feasible center of gravity. The framework has optimized fat balance with all parts centralized in the centre for perfect side-to-side weight stability.
All screw holes on the bottom associated with the chassis are countersunk, making it possible for a tremendously smooth framework underside with no protruding screw minds. The framework is hardcoated at XRAYs very own in-house completely robotic hardcoating line, ensuring a great hardcoated surface.
Note:
Swiss 7075 T6 is very rigid aluminum material and after the hardcoating process in infrequent cases some small cracks may possibly occur like, around openings or on edges where tension inside material is highest. Those little cracks are an all-natural impact and also no negative affect the performance, reliability, or lifespan associated with the item and thus are not regarded as a defect.
Due the character of aluminum product plus the machining process, it really is normal that the framework may be somewhat bent within the longitudinal direction.
