STIFFENER AND DUMP SHEET APPLICATION LOCATIONS
Stiffener is pasted to the inside of the side outer panel, and dump sheets are pasted on the inside
of the front doors to increase surface rigidity, thus improving soundproof qualities with the anti-vibration
effects.
NOTE
The stiffener comes in sheet form and is composed mainly of epoxy resin, glass fibers, and fillers. It hardens
when heated. It is used to improve the rigidity of outer panels.
