UNEEK HC-FB-CW2016-ASMO User manual


All our products are designed and manufactured right here in Australia, allowing us to have
better lead times and better quality control than companies manufacturing overseas. By
supporting us you’re supporting to grow the Australian economy and our brand.
We do not design our bars to look the same across the vehicle range. We fully develop our
own product to individually suit each vehicle. We take time in designing from scratch and
then test all our bars to comply with all relevant ADRs and Australian Standards.
Having a steel bar doesn’t mean you have to add more weight than is required to the front
of your vehicle. Our engineering practises ensure we have the right protection, designed the
right way to ensure protection is at its maximum and weights at its minimum.
We take our products out and test them right here in the heart of our country in our
Australian conditions so we know our products can withstand anything you throw at them.
Our bars are designed to give you the best advantage while off road, with increased
approach angles means you can tackle those tough and steep angles better than you could
with the original setup or other alternatives.
Uneek 4x4 back itself as Australias leading steel bull bar manufacturer. This is why we
provide you with the best steel bar warranty in Australia - 5 years.
