Causes of breakdowns of car air conditioning tubes
These parts are made from thin-walled aluminum alloys. Leaks in them happen, as a rule, for the following reasons:
Corrosion. Its foci can appear both on the inside and on the outside. The surface of products made of aluminum and its alloys is coated with a corrosion-resistant layer of oxides. But, if it is violated by a chemical or mechanical method, the metal quickly collapses under the influence of the external environment.
The impact of intense vibration loads can lead to the formation of a network of microcracks.
Mechanical damage caused by road accidents or illiterate repairs.
Abrasion due to contact with nearby parts.
In large cars, the rear air conditioning pipes are most often damaged in winter due to exposure to a mixture of sand and water, chemical de-icing agents, and sharp pieces of ice. Click
