REDUCED WEIGHT
Thinner gauge Ultra High Strength, high-carbon steel construction (SAE 1050) and fewer components reduces weight by 40%, while still surpassing all load requirements.

IMPROVED STRENGTH
Our stamping technology and ultra High Strength steel contribute to exceeding current designs.

REDUCED SHIPPING COST
The reduction in material utilized results in significant savings to our customers. The reduced weight allows for more parts per container, requiring fewer containers for production.
