Door sashes

Roll formed door sash profiles and sash assemblies that frame a vehicle's door glass.

Overview

A door sash is the window frame section of a vehicle door. It holds the glass run seal and guides the door glass as it moves. Because the sash is visible and must seal well, the profile needs to stay consistent along its whole length. Cold roll forming produces that consistency.

Star Auto Industries has produced door sash profiles for passenger cars, utility vehicles and commercial vehicles. The range includes front, rear and centre sashes, sash assemblies and rear window frames.

Applications

  • Passenger car doors
  • SUV and utility vehicle doors
  • Light commercial vehicle cabins
  • Rear door centre sashes
  • Rear window frames

How it is made

These profiles are cold roll formed. A metal strip passes through a series of roll stations, and each station bends it progressively until the strip reaches the required cross-section at room temperature. Learn about our manufacturing capabilities.
