they are steel
Re: group 27 lite chassis
Trophy is right they are steel
But aluminum Chassis
They are usually from 6063 or 7075 Aluminum, Ace used to use what he called Matrix aluminum which supposedly came in 6" cubes and you had to have EDM'd to whatever thickness you wanted. There are more exotix Aluminum out there but are not cost effective.
In steel chassis we have used .032, .040, .050, and .063, currently GP-12 and 27 Lite used .050.
