Description
-
Reduced Durability: Plastic is generally less durable compared to metal, especially in:
- Harsh weather conditions: Extreme temperatures or frequent rain/snow can lead to faster deterioration.
- Exposure to road debris: Impacts from rocks or other objects can cause cracks or breakage more easily than with metal housing.
-
Potential Safety Concerns: Plastic housing might not be as impact-resistant as metal, raising potential safety concerns in case of:
- Collisions: Lower resistance to potential impact compared to metal housing.
- Debris impact: Higher risk of breakage upon impact with road debris, potentially causing malfunctions or creating sharp edges.
