Description
Alpha A/T Traction Cleats
In some off-road and expedition scenarios you may be working in heavy mud (think Camel Trophy) or snow and ice. In either case you can quickly find that climbing up on the front bumper of the vehicle can be a risky maneuver with a good chance that slip off the bumper and hit the ground or find yourself face down on the hood of the vehicle.For our friends in these environments we have designed our Alpha A/T Tractions Cleats. Diamond plate and grip tape quickly become plugged with mud or snow/ice and become effectively useless. The Traction Cleats are aggressive, raised cleats that bolt on to the upper surface of the MFES providing a secure, non-slip, foothold in the worst conditions. The cleats attach at pre-drilled locations on the upper surface of the Alpha A/T. Each cleat is cut from rust-proof 6061-T6 aluminum and are then 2-staged powder coated to match the finish of the MFES. Fasteners are grade 8.8 and OE-grade triple coated for maximum corrosion protection (1000+ hr salt spray test).
The Traction Cleat kit comes with 4 Traction Cleats. Designed for use with the Alpha A/T system, will not work with factory or other aftermarket bumpers.

Materials
The Alpha A/T Traction Cleats are constructed from laser cut, 3/16” thick 6061-T6 aluminum plate. The rust-proof, lightweight and high-strength qualities of this aluminum alloy are well suited to this application providing long term corrosion resistant durability and performance.Corrosion and Coatings
This aluminum design doesn’t need coating at all to withstand rust and we could ship them uncoated without issue. However, we provide a 2-stage powder coating to match the Alpha A/T. Powder coating can be damaged in the off-road environment. These chips and scratches can be touched up with paint or left untreated as desired.Fasteners
To ensure high-strength performance we use all grade 8.8 fasteners on the MFES Splash Guards. These are treated with a 3-stage OE-grade coating for maximum corrosion protection (1,000+ hr salt spray test certification).Materials- 3/16” 6061-T6 Aluminum
