Tail Gate Step System... a step above

Multimatic introduces the first Tail Gate Step system. Conveniently integrated with the truck tailgate, you just pull the step out of the end of the tailgate and step right up, and down with ease.

This award-winning product is now available on all Ford F Series pickups. It was listed as one of the industry’s 100 Coolest Things by Automotive News. MORE INFO

In-Wheel Suspension delivers performance in
a small package

Multimatic introduces a suspension system that packages all suspension motion control components inside the vehicle’s wheel volume envelope.

This innovation eliminates the need for articulating linkages and structural remote mounting points. That means fewer parts, less package space requirement and more reliability. MORE INFO

Bridgeless Hinge minimizes use of material, weight and space

The Multimatic Bridgeless Hinge has been rendered down to the absolute simplest form possible – thus minimizing material, weight and package space, while delivering excellent performance.

Variations of the bridgeless hinge system can incorporate a check device. MORE INFO

Flex Housing Door Check couldn’t be simpler – or lighter – or more affordable

Ultimate simplicity proves to be the ultimate solution. The Multimatic Flex Housing Check device has excellent performance characteristics, no moving parts to generate the check force, and packages in existing doors designed to use separate checks with no sheet metal changes required.

In addition, this paintable check link eliminates the need for paint shop fixtures. MORE INFO

Box Step makes access to pickup trucks a one-step operation

Multimatic introduced the frame-mounted deployable box step on the Ford F150 and F250 trucks. All it takes is a simple kick on the side of the step and it instantly deploys, ready for you to step up within reach of cargo in the bed of your truck.

The foot-operated system makes storage easy, and a gas strut softens the action to provide a solid, quality feel. MORE INFO

Replaceable Skate Blade System eliminates the need for skate sharpening.

Multimatic introduces a skate blade that is easy to replace, eliminating the need for constant re-sharpening. With QuikBlade®, the edge of the skate blade is quickly and easily removed and replaced.

This means you can re-sharpen your skates anytime and anywhere, for about the same cost as conventional sharpening. MORE INFO

Integrated Hydraulic Supply System powers hydraulic devices.

Multimatic introduces an integrated hydraulic supply system for pickup trucks. This system drives hydraulic devices such as snow plows, wood splitters, hitch mounted Power Take-off’s etc. right from the front end accessory drive of the truck engine.

Utilizing a novel digital pump technology, the system provides an infinitely controllable flow rate and includes connection points at the front and rear of the truck. MORE INFO

Hood Pedestrian Protector is fully re-settable

To protect pedestrians from severe injury when struck by a car, the Multimatic deployable hood hinge system raises the rear end of the hood to cushion the impact.
The control module is unable to discern between a pedestrian and an object like a garbage can. However, once deployed, the Multimatic hood hinge system is easily re-set by opening and closing the hood. MORE INFO

Ingenuity increases strength, reduces cost of suspension control arm.

The patented Multimatic stamped I-Beam control arm, as launched on the 2005 Mustang, is a PACE award winner for innovation.

This unique stamped and welded I-Beam configuration and provides exceptional performance at a lower cost compared to traditional cast or forged suspension control arms. MORE INFO

High performance Spool Valve Damper Technology

Multimatic’s ultra high performance dampers have been winning races all over the world, from Formula One to Champ Car / IRL, and GT racing.

Branded as Dynamic Suspensions Spool Valve (DSSV) dampers, it is a fully analytically determinant damper providing the exact damping characteristic as specified through a unique software application, SpecFinder. MORE INFO

Tailgate Lift Assist reduces lift efforts and drop open impact loads

Launched on the 2008 Toyota Tundra, this Multimatic first is an elegantly designed tail gate counter balance and fall-open damping device.

Not only does the Multimatic tail gate lift device make light work of closing the tailgate, it significantly reduces the drop open impact load, thus eliminating slam noise, greatly increasing customer quality perception and safety. MORE INFO
