The only stainless-steel truck mudguards made in Australia
The Standard Just Got Stronger: Our New 1.6mm Smooth Guards Are Back!
At Lelox, we believe that "standard" should never mean "basic." We’ve spent the last few months refining our manufacturing processes and listening to your feedback. Today, we are thrilled to announce that our Standard Smooth Guards are officially back in production—and they are better than they have ever been.
We didn’t just bring them back; we gave them a massive upgrade. Here is why the new generation of Lelox guards is setting a new industry benchmark.
Thicker, Tougher, and More Rigid The most significant change is in the gauge. We have increased the thickness of our smooth guards from 1.2mm to a heavy-duty 1.6mm.
While it might sound like a small measurement on paper, the difference in the field is night and day. This 33% increase in thickness provides significantly more rigidity. For drivers and fleet owners, this means:
Precision Engineering: Goodbye, Edge Ripple One of the biggest challenges with smooth metal guards has always been "edge ripple"—those tiny waves that can appear during the forming process. We’ve overhauled our production technique to tackle this head-on. The result? The quality is superb. Edge ripple is now drastically improved to the point of being next to non-existent. You get a sleek, mirror-like finish that enhances the look of any truck, providing that premium Lelox aesthetic you’ve come to expect.
- Maximum Durability: A tougher guard that stands up to road debris. - Reduced Fatigue: Far less chance of cracking, especially in high-vibration environments or when low-mounted. - Longer Lifespan: These guards are built to outlast the competition.
Supporting Aussie Industries
Beyond its exceptional durability and aesthetics, the Signature Series Mudguard embodies a deeper ethos, supporting local industries, empowering Australian workers, and contributing to the nation's growth and prosperity. Big Rigs emphasised that when customers support LELOX, they support the team, their families, and the community through sponsorships and donations.
Big Rigs pointed out that in today's competitive landscape, foreign-made truck mudguards might promise similar features to LELOX products but often fall short in terms of quality, reliability, and price. LELOX's competitors often make exaggerated claims and unsubstantiated promises, attempting to lure customers away from Australian-made products. The publication emphasised the importance of comparing products accurately, noting that LELOX's 304 grade stainless steel truck mudguards are substantially cheaper than American-made fenders, and their 430 grade mudguards offer the same value. Chinese-produced truck mudguards, using inferior stainless steel, fail to meet the harsh requirements of the Australian landscape.
What sets the Signature Series Mudguard apart, according to Big Rigs, is not just its superior quality and craftsmanship but also the assurance that it is the only stainless-steel truck mudguard made in Australia. Each mudguard bears the “304 Signature Series Australian Made” logo, a testament to its local origins.
