Custom Project: 1/8 scale pit caddy for Inov8 RC Fab

Cut to customer supplied specifications, deburred & sanded

10-Gauge Steel (0.1345" | Thickness of Two Stacked Dimes)

• Best For: Heavy-duty commercial wall mounts, shop workbenches, and massive modular tool stacks.
• The Advantage: Extreme structural stiffness. This ultra-thick steel completely eliminates flexing, twisting, and tool rattling, making it the definitive choice for demanding daily job-site use.

12-Gauge Steel (0.1046" | Thickness of a Standard House Key)

• Best For: Mobile service vans, enclosed trailers, and standard shop organization layouts.
• The Advantage: The ultimate sweet spot between bulletproof strength and smart weight distribution. It handles constant over-the-road vibrations flawlessly without adding unnecessary bulk to your mobile rig.

14-Gauge Steel (0.0747" | Thickness of a Nickel)

• Best For: Handheld battery organizers, small tool holsters, and lightweight shelf accessories.
• The Advantage: High-tensile rigidity in a streamlined profile. It provides a rock-solid, permanent mount for smaller gear while keeping your workspace layout clean and low-profile.

8-Gauge Aluminum (0.1285" | Heavy-Duty Marine Grade)

• Best For: Open truck beds, roof racks, exterior trailer sides, and high-moisture environments.
• The Advantage: Maximum corrosion resistance with severe weight savings. Shaved pounds keep your mobile fuel efficiency optimized while remaining completely immune to rain, snow, and road salt oxidation.

10-Gauge Stainless Steel (0.1345" | Thickness of Two Stacked Dimes)

• Best For: Premium exposed truck bed brackets, marine applications, high-end shop builds, and ultimate weather protection.
• The Advantage: Combines the absolute, unyielding structural rigidity of our thickest 10-gauge plate with total lifetime corrosion resistance. It requires no paint or powder coat to stay 100% immune to rust, road salt, and harsh outdoor elements.

Note: Sheet metal gauge numbers run inversely—the lower the gauge number, the thicker and more rigid the actual metal substrate is.

We fabricate our mounting solutions and accessories using commercial-grade materials built for harsh environments. Choose the right finish for your build and review our care recommendations below:

Raw Steel

• Overview: Shipped bare and untreated directly from fabrication. Ideal for custom painting, powder coating, or welding into custom racks.
• Appearance: May feature light mill scale, surface scuffs, or minor flash rust upon delivery, which is standard for raw metal stock.
• Care & Maintenance: Raw steel will rust when exposed to moisture, humidity, or air. We strongly recommend surface preparation (sanding/cleaning) and applying a coat of paint, clear coat, or powder coat prior to installation.

Powder Coated

• Overview: Finished with a heavy-duty, thermo-fused polymer coating engineered for extreme wear, corrosion resistance, and UV protection.
• Appearance: Smooth, professional, and uniform matte/satin black finish ready for immediate installation out of the box.
• Care & Maintenance: Clean using warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid solvent-based chemicals (such as acetone or paint thinner) or abrasive scrubbers, as these can wear down the protective coating. Touch up deep gouges or scratches promptly to preserve the underlying metal.

Raw Aluminum

• Overview: A premium, lightweight option offering maximum natural rust resistance. Ideal for outdoor truck beds, work vans, and marine applications.
• Appearance: Bare metal with a clean industrial look. Naturally forms a thin protective oxide film to prevent deep corrosion. Light surface grain or manufacturing tool marks may be present.
• Care & Maintenance: Completely rust-proof. Maintain by washing with standard automotive soap and water. If desired, restore or brighten the bare surface over time using a standard aluminum polish.

Raw Stainless Steel

• Overview: Engineered for maximum structural strength, severe weather resistance, and high chemical tolerance.
• Appearance: High-grade, bare metal finish providing a clean, rugged aesthetic without requiring additional coatings or paint.
• Care & Maintenance: Highly low-maintenance and naturally corrosion-resistant. Clean with soapy water or a dedicated stainless steel cleaner to remove grease, road grime, and fingerprints.

What is Proposition 65?

Proposition 65 (officially known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986) is a California law that requires businesses to provide a warning to California consumers if their products contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

These warnings are required even if the chemical is present in incredibly low amounts that may not pose any significant risk to your health.

California Proposition 65 Warning

⚠️ WARNING: Products sold on this website can expose you to chemicals including lead, nickel, chromium, or other phthalates, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Why is this warning on my order?

Because BOCO Custom LLC ships products nationwide, we include this warning to ensure full compliance with California law. A Proposition 65 warning does not mean a product is unsafe or defective; it simply means the product contains a trace amount of a regulated substance. We prioritize the safety of our customers and provide this information so you can make informed purchasing decisions.
