Ex-Guard introduces its most advanced front-end protection system, the Ex-Guard MAX.
According to Jeremy Drever, director of engineering for Ex-Guard, the Ex-Guard MAX is the company’s strongest, highest-rated extreme-duty grille guard, expanding a portfolio that ranges from low-profile bumper guards to full front-end protection models.
Designed for Class 6-8 trucks, the Ex-Guard MAX introduces reinforced guard technology, enhanced steer tire protection, and is the first grille guard in North America to be independently tested and validated to meet a key international benchmark (UN ECE R93) for front underrun mitigation.
“We’ve independently tested the MAX to be the strongest, most protective grille guard we’ve ever built,” said Drever. “This guard is effective at mitigating front-end damage caused by wildlife and other vehicles, as well as frequent, minor incidents that often occur around the yard or at truck stops. In addition to our own rigorous validation, the guard has been independently tested, providing customers with confidence that it delivers protection above and beyond current regulations.
“As a result, this solution can help fleets significantly save on maintenance and replacement part costs when incidents do occur.”
The Ex-Guard Max is available for most over-the-road trucks from all the major OEMs, including Freightliner, Kenworth, Volvo, Mack, Peterbilt, International, and Western Star.
