DesignEvery product at Sterling Equipment starts with a tall man named Wade. He is the one who collects the dimensions of your truck, either from the manufacturer of the vehicle, or by going out and taking measurements himself. With the dimensions in hand (and dirt on his back from measuring the underside of the truck), he designs the product while avoiding modifications to the truck and minimizing any unnecessary drilling for the mounting process (AKA when they put it on your truck). After several weeks and hours of sketching and mock-ups, Wade will create a prototype. He revises the prototype to ensure that the final product will fit your vehicle perfectly. Once he finalizes the revisions on the prototype, he creates the prints that the shop will use to create the product.

ConstructionOnce the design is done, it is sent to the shop and placed in the skillful hands of our professional fabricators and welders. Depending on the product, steel will be bent, cut, and welded together. Welding is the process of permanently joining metals together. There are many types of welding, but the one we use is MIG (metal inert gas) or GMAW (gas metal arc welding). The welding is what makes our products one-piece, with no assembly required on your end.

Powder CoatingOnce the product is assembled, it is sent to the powder coating department. Powder coating is extremely durable and lasts a long time, so it is perfect for truck accessories that undergo outside exposure. Read More
