ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a composite structural component for a vehicle. A plurality of fibers are pre-treated with a wetting agent. The pre-treated fibers are pulled through a supply of molten metal to coat the fibers. The wetting agent facilitates the adhesion of the molten metal to the fibers. The metal-coated fibers are pulled through a shaping die to form an elongated structure having a desired shape, and cooled to solidify the elongated structure. The elongated structure is cut to a desired length to form a composite structural component for a vehicle.
