Stainless steel clad aluminum has become the material of choice for bright Class 8 truck bumpers because it has turned rust into a problem of the past. In fact, stainless clad aluminum bumpers may well outlast the tractors that carry them. In addition to the mirror finish and extraordinary corrosion resistance, owners appreciate the substantial weight savings clad bumpers provide when compared to chromed or painted steel, savings that contribute to greater fuel economy or higher payloads.
