Client Background & Requirements
EastMax recently collaborated with a leading Australian vehicle modification company specializing in custom conversions for premium commercial and specialty vehicles. With growing demand for automotive storage solutions, the client sought high performance slide systems capable of withstanding extreme conditions for large commercial vehicle storage compartments.
The challenge faced by this modifier: Conventional slides couldn't meet heavy duty equipment storage requirements. They needed slides that could:
* Support at least 200kg weight
* Remain stable during vehicle movement
* Feature full extension for deep storage access
* Include safety locks to prevent accidental opening during transit
"We tested multiple slide products on the market, but none satisfied the rigorous demands of commercial vehicle storage systems," stated the company's Technical Director. "We required a reliable solution that could handle heavy loads while enduring vehicle vibration."
Our engineering team recommended the flagship 76mm Heavy Duty Ball Bearing Slides, specifically designed for extreme conditions and heavy load applications.
* Exceptional Load Capacity: 227kg static load per pair (vs. 25-45kg standard slides)
* Full Extension: 100% travel for complete access
* Auto Locking Mechanism: Integrated safety lock prevents accidental opening
* Wide Body Design: 76mm width enhances stability and weight distribution
* Premium Ball Bearings: Precision bearings ensure smooth operation under full load
* Corrosion Resistance: Nickel plated surface treatment passes 48 hour salt spray test (ASTM B117compliant), resisting moisture and salt corrosion
"EastMax engineers truly understood our challenges," remarked the Procurement Manager. "They delivered not just compliant products but provided valuable improvements for automotive applications."

Our engagement began with comprehensive requirements analysis. Our team studied:
* Specific vehicle models
* Storage system blueprints
* Actual usage scenarios
Customizations included:
1. Mounting Adaptation: Adjusted hole patterns for existing brackets
2. Enhanced Finish: Upgraded corrosion protection for coastal environments
3. Lubrication Optimization: Special formula for extreme temperatures (-20°C to 80°C)
"The 8 week project timeline from concept to production was impressive," noted the Project Manager. "EastMax maintained excellent communication throughout."
After 6 months of field testing:
* 200 installed units achieved zero failures
* Enabled innovative storage designs
* Helped secure major fleet contracts
"These slides revolutionized our storage system design," said the Lead Designer. "We can now offer superior solutions without compromising safety or capacity."
The success established EastMax as a strategic supplier, with collaboration expanding to other hardware categories, including co-development of modular storage systems.
