An automotive tailgate, or hatch, refers to a hinged board or door attached at the rear end of the vehicle to provide security to the passengers. The tailgate can also be moved up or down for loading and unloading of cargo. It consists of a rotating latch mechanism, handle, panels, rods and recesses on the sides. It is also utilized for covering hinges, lock mechanisms and electrical wiring of the vehicle. The tailgates are manufactured using highly functional metals, thermoplastics, polycarbonates and other polymeric materials and are commonly available in two- and three-layered variants. They are usually operated through hydraulic, power or manual systems and are used in the commercial and heavy passenger vehicles to provide additional protection against strong impacts from collisions.
