REINFORCEMENT STRIP, Bed, Steel, 72 inch length style, does not attach to the frame (shorter than cross sills and only bolt to the bed strips and angle strips), US-made reproduction
Like a cross sill, these steel reinforcement pieces are placed perpendicular to the strips and wood for support. The difference from the cross sill is that the reinforcement strips are shorter in height and they are bolted to the bed strips and angle strips only. Reinforcement strips "reinforce" the bed, but they do not attach to the frame. Bolt holes in the reinforcement strip determine the placement of the bed strips and wood. Part is approximately 1 inch tall. Length is 72 inches. Made in USA.
Note:
See NPD part number K-16545-60BUS for Stainless Steel version.
