The HERD Interlock™ System
HERD’s team of engineers and fabricators have developed an exclusive interlocking system connecting
the bumper and the bracket.
This unique assembly virtually eliminates vibration; improving the
distribution of forces upon impact and providing a vast improvement over other products on
the market.
 
- Bracket Backbone of each grill guard bumper is made from C9" X 20" structural steel
channel which extends beyond the width of the frame.
- Steel Impact Plates extend forward to meet the inside face of bumper extrusion providing superior
backing in the event of an impact.
- Bumper channel is engineered to interlock with Bracket Backbone, dramatically improving distribution
of forces during impact.
- Eyebolts are chrome plated, drop forged steel. They won’t break or strip and when
tightened firmly, they securely lock the Bullbar in its upright position and minimize vibration.
Retained eyebolt system – eyebolts won’t fall out of bumper channel
when undone to lower the bar
- Eyebolts and impact plates are positioned at a wide stance, significantly improving impact resistance
at bumper extremities.
- Hinge assembly constructed using very robust custom extrusion. In addition most of the
weight of the Bullbar is supported by the interlock (3) which virtually eliminates hinge wear.
- Solid steel tow pin and tow section integral to steel bracket.
- Fully boxed uprights provide increased structural rigidity and impact strength, as well
as reducing maintenance time by being easier to clean.
- Bigger aluminum tubing – we use 3”
- Our bars are shinier…
