Proven Performance — Substantial Cost Savings
Lamps are exposed to varying climate, road and vehicle conditions that can impact performance. Water spray, humidity, automotive fluids, road debris, dust and dirt can degrade light performance creating aesthetic and safety concerns. Rapid decreases in temperature can cause a decrease in internal pressure, which can draw in contaminants, increase condensation and cause lamp failure.
GORE™ Automotive Vents have been proven in over a decade of use in lighting applications and are more durable than competitive solutions. Their peak performance in the harsh automotive environment is maintained for the life of the vehicle.
The proven performance and unique design of GORE™ Automotive Vents for lighting applications can save you money at every stage of the process:
- For head lamps, position-independent design reduces design complexity for faster, most cost-efficient product development
- Vents can be placed using either manual or automatic methods, for ease of assembly
- Predictable performance lowers testing costs
