If you’ve ever seen a truck bed that still looks brand new after years of hauling gear, chances are it’s coated in LINE-X. But what makes LINE-X so special - and why do we use it to protect every Rodmen4x4 roll bar we build?
Let’s break it down.
What Is LINE-X?
LINE-X is a high-performance protective coating made from a specialized polyurea spray. It’s designed to create an impenetrable shield against scratches, chips, rust, and UV damage - the kind of abuse every truck faces on and off the road.
Once sprayed on, LINE-X cures in seconds and bonds directly to the metal surface, forming a seamless layer that’s virtually indestructible.
How It Works
-
Surface Prep
Before applying LINE-X, the metal is sandblasted and cleaned to ensure perfect adhesion. This step is crucial - it’s what allows LINE-X to grip the surface like nothing else. -
Spray-On Application
LINE-X is applied using a high-pressure spray system that mixes two components right before spraying. Once they hit the surface, they instantly react and harden, locking the protection in place. -
Instant Armor
Within seconds, the coating sets into a durable, flexible shell that can take serious punishment - from flying gravel to salt spray to harsh UV rays. It won’t crack, peel, or bubble, no matter what you throw at it.
Why It’s Trusted by the Military
LINE-X isn’t just for truck owners - it’s been used by the U.S. military to reinforce vehicle panels and equipment. That same level of protection now guards your roll bar from corrosion, weather, and impact.
So when we say “built to outlast your truck,” we mean it.
LINE-X on Rodmen4x4 Roll Bars
Every Rodmen4x4 roll bar is handcrafted from 304-grade stainless steel and coated in LINE-X. That means you’re getting double protection:
-
Stainless steel that won’t rust.
-
A LINE-X layer that shields it from the elements and keeps it looking sharp for years.
The result? A roll bar that doesn’t just look tough - it is tough.
Last, But Not Least
Most roll bars on the market start strong but fade fast - rust, chips, and peeling paint after a few seasons.
At Rodmen4x4, we do things differently. We build gear that’s meant to last, no matter how rough the road gets.
LINE-X isn’t a coating. It’s armor.
And it’s one of the reasons our roll bars stand in a class of their own.
