Product Description
Truck Accessories: A .125" Aluminum Pressed Grip Strut Step Built for Peterbilt Replacement. Made in the USA by AMERICAN TRUCKBOXES ATB®
This pressed grip strut step is built for fleet operators and owner-operators who need a direct-fit replacement step for their Peterbilt truck, not a generic aftermarket guess. The pressed grip strut tread pattern gives drivers and technicians secure footing in wet, icy, or greasy shop conditions, cutting down on slip-and-fall risk during daily cab access. Every step is manufactured by American Truckboxes LLC in Blanchard, North Dakota, using .125" aluminum plate that resists corrosion without steel's weight penalty. Both bottom (PB) and top (PT) step positions are available, and custom sizing is available for fleets running non-standard configurations.
Key Features
- Direct Peterbilt fit: engineered specifically as a replacement for the Peterbilt step box, so it bolts in without fabrication or drilling new holes
- Corrosion resistant: .125" aluminum construction shrugs off road salt, moisture, and de-icing chemicals that rot out steel steps
- Slip-resistant surface: pressed grip strut tread pattern bites into boots for secure footing in rain, snow, and diesel spills
- Lightweight aluminum build: reduces unsprung weight versus steel steps without sacrificing load-bearing strength
- Two step positions available: PB (bottom, 29-5/8" wide) and PT (top, 30-3/8" wide) cover both mounting points on the step box
- Consistent 8 lb step weight: easy for a single technician to handle during install or replacement, no lift assist needed
- Durable finish: raw aluminum surface holds up to daily UV exposure and washouts without flaking or rusting through
- Fleet-ready availability: ATB stocks and ships this step for fleets replacing damaged or worn Peterbilt steps across multiple trucks

Q: Will this step fit my Peterbilt truck?
A: This pressed grip strut step is engineered as a direct replacement for the Peterbilt step box. Select PB for the bottom step position or PT for the top position based on which one needs replacing.
Q: Should I choose aluminum or steel for a replacement step?
A: This step is .125" aluminum, which resists corrosion from road salt and moisture better than steel while staying lighter. For high-traffic step positions that see constant boot contact, aluminum holds up well without the rust-through issues steel steps eventually develop.

Q: Does this step need any modification to install?
A: No, it is built to the original Peterbilt step box dimensions and mounting pattern, so it installs as a direct swap for the worn or damaged factory step.
