Automotive engine cam covers, also known as rocker covers, are stamped or forged structure designed to protect camshaft and rocker arms from external debris. They also help in retaining some amount of oils for lubricating purposes. These parts are very light in construction as they are not stressed member of the engines, thereby do not add any unwanted extra weight to the vehicle.
Engine cam covers are usually affixed to the engine with additional utilization of rubber gasket so as to ensure a tight and leak proof fit. In the present scenario, automotive engine cam covers come with breather in order to blow out any pressure and smoke build up without the requirement of disabling the cam cover from the engine.
The interior portion of the automotive engine cam cover is baffled, which reduces harsh movement of oil within the cam cover. Innovations in the design of automotive engine cam cover include different types of breather for specific purposes that include open breathers, foamed breathers, breathers with filters and oil-draped covered breathers.
The automotive engine cam cover is driven primarily by the production of vehicles. Since, it is a permanent fixture in any vehicle engine, its market is bound to grow in correlation with the performance of the automotive industry. The market is especially on a high growth in aftermarket segment as many custom designs and solutions are available in the market coupled with low installation cost of the structure.
Manufacturers of automotive engine cam covers are continuously innovating the product to achieve maximum efficiency in lubricating the parts it houses. The development of composite-based engine cam covers is also gaining traction in the market with main focus in the motorsport area, owing to its low weight and high strength. These factors contribute an increase in sales of automotive engine cam cover and thereby, is expected to drive the market in the upcoming years.
The players associated with the manufacture of automotive engine cam cover majorly belong in the unorganized segment owing to low capital requirements to manufacture such parts. This can become a challenge to push genuine parts in the market as substandard products are sold more aggressively than the other.
If we look at the performance of the automotive industry from global perspective, it is clear that North America, Europe and Asia Pacific surpass other regions by a large margin. This is due to presence of large number of well-established OEMs flourishing in those regions. Hence, the automotive engine cam cover market prospective in such regions is bound to be high with an expected healthy growth rate.
The market in Asia Pacific is expected for a high growth due to large-scale automobile production in the Chinese, Japanese, South Korean and Indian economies. The same also holds true for North America and Europe, wherein the growth of the automotive industry is expected to bolster the market of automotive engine cam cover.
The market in Latin America is anticipated for a short lived downfall especially in the Brazilian economy, but may pick up steam in later part of the forecast period. Conversely, the automotive industry in Mexico has witnessed an uptick in the recent couple of years with market share expected to surpass the market share of Brazil. The main focus of the Middle East &Africa is its aftermarket segment owing to consumer’s preference to customize vehicles with different engine cam covers.
