Abstract
An anti-roll bar is part of an automobile suspension system which limits body roll angle. This U-shaped metal bar connects opposite wheels together through short lever arms and is clamped to the vehicle chassis with rubber bushes. Its function is to reduce the body roll while cornering, also while travelling on uneven road surface which enhances safety and comfort during driving. An anti-sway or anti-roll bar is intended to force each side of the vehicle to lower, or rise, to similar heights, to reduce the sideways tilting (roll) of the vehicle on curves, sharp corners, or large bumps. This paper includes the materials to be used for the manufacturing of anti-roll bar. The objective of this paper is a detailed review of functions and development of anti-roll bar.
