APS Running Board & Nerf Bar Types
APS truck steps come in various styles and configurations, allowing you to tailor your step selection to your ride’s existing exterior aesthetic.
Step Type: One of the most common considerations is the style of step, as APS manufactures multiple distinct models. Nerf bars, for example, feature a sleek tubular design, often paired with textured composite step pads for maximum traction. APS also produces drop steps, which feature a high-tucked primary bar and welded-on steps that “drop” below the primary bar, providing a low and easily accessible foothold. Lastly, APS manufactures premium running boards, which typically feature a wide and flat cab-length step, providing maximum entry assistance to yourself and your passengers.
Sizes: Truck steps come in several sizes, including tubular step diameter and running board width. Tubular steps, like nerf bars, typically feature a 2 or 3-inch diameter, whereas running boards are generally offered in 4 and 6-inch widths, with 6-inch models sacrificing low-profile style for improved traction.
Length: Running boards and nerf bars come in two common lengths: cab-length and wheel-to-wheel. Cab length variants stretch the length of your vehicle’s cab, easing entry at any door. Alternatively, wheel-to-wheel steps stretch from the rear of the front wheel to the front of the rear wheel, providing access to the cab and bed.
Finish: Running boards come in several finishes, ranching from stealthy to lustrous. Some of the most common include:
Brushed aluminum
Polished aluminum
Brushed stainless steel
Polished stainless steel
Powder coated steel
Painted steel
Chrome-plated steel
