Abstract
The invention relates to an impact beam for a vehicle body, which has an oblong box-type hollow profile. In order to enable the impact beam to provide sufficient rigidity and strength in the event of an impact in spite of having a lightweight construction, it is proposed that an oblong, planar, fiber-reinforced plastic part is fitted at least on the rear side of the hollow profile, which side faces the vehicle.
