Metal for Work

Here is a sampling of our most popular products for industrial and vehicle applications. Whether it is safety steps for trucks, spools for hauling cable, or metal sign holders for realtors, shop owners and others, these products are all made from quality materials and designed to be durable and easy to use.

Flexible Step for Trucks

Collision-damage resistant, flexible step comes with grip strut step (mud and snow will fall through instead of turning to ice) and a braided cable vertical support. The support allows for rigidity but will flex rather than break or bend if bumped. Steps provide safety and ease of access to users.

Made of mild steel, the Single Step is approximately 12”tall x 12”long x 5”wide. Double Step is 24”H. Cost is $125/step for single step and $200/step for double. (Quantity discount available)

We have sold 100s of these steps to utility companies and others with utility trucks. An alternate application would be for any cosmetically raised truck or vehicle.


Fold-Away Ladder for Trucks

This ladder mounts flat to the bottom side of a flatbed truck and is pulled forward for use. It is small enough to mount between the tandem axels, if desired, or can be mounted elsewhere for ease of access. Ladder comes with track for easy stowing and a safety latch to stop the steps from vibrating out when stowed and traveling.

Made of mild tubular steel, step comes with anti-slip tread. Ladder is 12”tall x 12 3/4”wide x 1”deep. Provides safe and convenient access, stores out-of-the-way when not in use. $325/ladder (quantity discount available).

Truck-Mounted Spool for Plastic, Natural Gas Line

Excellent for hauling gas line to a work site. Protects load from shifting inside the truck bed and contains line from unraveling when cut loose.

Made of round, tubular steel, this spool holds 1 standard bundle of plastic pipe. Four twist-lock arms allow for easy loading and hold cable in place during transport. Rotates easily. Comes with its own grease zerk for greasing axel shaft. Painted white. Spool will hold 500 feet of ¾ inch polyethylene, plastic, gas pipe. $625/spool (quantity discount available)

One utility company engineer commented “We searched the internet for a spool like this and couldn’t find one that would really work. We are so happy with this product!”

Asphalt Hopper

There is nothing else like this on the market! Eliminate having to hand-shovel asphalt or use a front-end loader. Easily carried to the job site by using chains (provided) and attaching it to a tailgate. Used by large utility and small asphalt paver companies alike.

Features include hard-surfaced skid rails which allow easy dragging behind your dump truck. Chains are easily attached to the pintle hook on your dump truck. Beater plate mounted on the back to help prevent bridging. Adjustable locking doors for offset or infinite trench widths to 36”. The doors have self-cleaning sides. Over ¼ cubic yard capacity. FOB our dock. $2200/hopper (quantity discount available).

Backhoe Bucket

Safety Cone Holder

Truck mounted, these safety cone holders may be attached to the front or back of a truck. Stacked cones will stay organized and in place during transit. Made of mild steel, the holders will not break like plastic versions. Comes with four holes for easy mounting. $31 each. (quantity discount available)


Folding Pipe Rack

Now you can carry up to 20’ lengths of pipe to your job site without carrying it on top of your cab or damaging your truck. There is no easier way to carry pipe to your site with a pick-up truck.

“U” shape style mounts on the front and rear bumpers to support both ends of the pipe. Spring loaded to easily fold out-of-the-way when not in use. Made of mild steel, racks will support up to 6” wide load and up to 20’ long. Rack is primed with red oxide finish which will take paint to match the color of your truck.

 

“F” shape style mounts between the box and cab of your truck to support the middle of the pipe you are hauling. Will fold out-of-the-way when not in use. Finished as above.

 

“U” style cost: $180 for one -- $340 for two
“F” style cost: $48 for one
(Quantity discount available for both styles)

“J” Hook

This convenient hook mounts to any metal wall and swivels flat when not in use. Good for holding tools like crescent, pipe and boxed-end wrenches inside the tool compartments of a utility truck for easy access; they can also keep hoses, tubing, cables and cords out of the way when not in use. Even good for coats, jackets and hats!

These “J” hooks were originally designed for use inside industrial or utility truck compartments, but are handy for any shop or wall application. We attach these hooks to our own welding stations to keep the cabling out of the way. They can be drilled for wall mount. Made of mild steel they come in two sizes. $22.50 for 4 inch size. $24.50 for 6 inch size.


Stabilizing Outrigger for Trucks and Campers

An inexpensive and effective way to stabilize your vehicle without using an expensive hydraulic system. Vehicle will stay in place even if your small crane is lifting a heavy load to one side or if your camper is being buffeted by a high wind.

Made of mild steel, this outrigger inserts into the hitch receiver pocket of your vehicle. $195/outrigger (quantity discount available).

3-Point Stabilizing Bars

Avoid rear-end swing with hard acceleration in off-road driving. Mounts on rear axel of truck to prevent spring wrap. Cool look! Be the envy of your friends!

Features include: weld-on mounts, made of tubular steel and 3/8” flat plate, heim joints. Fits all makes and models. You supply axel housing dimensions and we'll make it to fit your vehicle. $300 to $450 depending on mounting hardware needed.

Sign Holder

We use this holder for our own shop sign! Holds a standard size 24 x 18 inch metal sign board. Folds in half for easy transportation in the trunk of a car.

Good for realtors, architects, shops (side-walk, store-front, window, lobby, and trade-show applications), caterers, property owners, etc. Comes in a standard style or let us make you a custom sign per your design. (Examples of custom signs from the past include: a “pick and shovel” border for miners association, Victorian metal fence style, even a rose-vine border for a flower shop.)
