Evaluation of Wheels for Excessive Corrosion under Five-Year Limited Warranty

This Technical Bulletin (“TB”) refers to and supplements Maxion Wheels’ Five-Year Limited Warranty F-152F (07/01/16) applicable to the original MaxCoatTM Extra powder-coat finish on hub-piloted single and wide-base tubeless disc wheels.
