Product Information
Pressure-locked means bearing bars are locked in position by cross bar deformation instead of riveting or welding. Typically, the bearing and cross bars contain slotted openings that are aligned in an egg-crate fashion. Then, the bars are pressed under intense hydraulic pressure. The result is a flush top with excellent lateral stability and standing comfort.
Press Locked Series
