Lippert Components® introduces new Alumi-Tread™ hybrid RV step

April 10, 2015

Elkhart, Ind. —Lippert Components, Inc. (LCI®) introduces its new Alumi-Tread hybrid RV step, featuring strong, steel linkage and attractive aluminum treads with anti-slip rubber grooves for excellent traction.

“We’re always seeking customer feedback so that we can develop the products our customers really want, and this new hybrid Alumi-Tread step brings together some of our customers’ favorite step features,” said Andy Murray, LCI Vice President of RV Sales. “The unique hybrid design of the Alumi-Tread step utilizes steel linkage to provide more stability than an all-aluminum step, and also features lightweight aluminum treads lending that high-end, European look customers love, but at a lower price point.”

The sleek, euro-style Alumi-Tread hybrid step provides both style and functionality with proven steel linkage and lightweight, rust-resistant aluminum treads for long-lasting durability, and built-in anti-slip rubber grooves for traction. The Alumi-Tread hybrid step is available in triple and quad configurations and adds a clean, modern appearance to RVs, as well as a consistent, smooth operation.

LCI Chassis Components Product Manager Caleb Holdread emphasizes that LCI has an RV step for everyone. “We have a complete line of RV steps and the Alumi-Tread fits right in the lineup along with our time-tested steel entry steps and our high-end all-aluminum Tread Lite® step,” said Holdread. “Using steel linkage allowed us to create a stronger structure to support triple and quad configurations, and also allows us to offer that attractive aluminum style at the right price point.”

The Alumi-Tread hybrid RV step is available standard on popular RV brands, and as an easy-to-install aftermarket kit available through aftermarket channels.
