Key Features
- 5" oval steel tube construction – Offers increased strength and a wider profile for enhanced side protection and style
- Injection-molded polymer step pads – Provides a wide, slip-resistant stepping surface for safer entry and exit
- 30° OE-style bends with domed ends – Contours to factory body lines while eliminating exposed end caps that can rust
- Bolt-on installation (no drilling on most applications) – Ensures a quick, hassle-free upgrade using factory mounting points
Detailed Features & Benefits
The Westin PRO TRAXX 5 Oval Nerf Step Bars are engineered to deliver both form and function. The 5-inch oval steel tubing provides a more substantial appearance and increased coverage compared to smaller nerf bars, helping shield your truck’s rocker panels from road debris, parking lot dings, and light off-road hazards.
Designed with 30° OE-style bends at each end, the PRO TRAXX 5 follows the natural lines of your truck for a clean, integrated look. Fully welded domed ends eliminate exposed bolt heads or plastic end caps, reducing corrosion risk and improving long-term durability.
Each bar features a heavy-duty, injection-molded polymer step pad with a generous 5-inch-wide stepping surface and integrated Westin logo. The textured surface delivers confident traction in rain, mud, or snow, making entry and exit safer for drivers and passengers. A rocker-panel-mounted design provides dual-purpose functionality—acting as both a sturdy side step and added side protection. Select applications also include injection-molded bracket covers for a cleaner, more finished appearance.
