Source: maxtrax.com.au (verified 2026-08-09) · corroborated by sherpaec.com. MAXTRAX's own collection page confirms $319.00 pricing and 12 available colors. Dimensions (45 x 13 x 3.5 in.), material, and weight (8 lb per board / 16 lb per pair, 17-18 lb shipped) corroborated identically across authorized dealers TrailRax and Sherpa Equipment Co, both of which reproduce MAXTRAX's own spec copy. Neither MAXTRAX's own page nor either dealer page states a numeric load/weight rating (a commonly repeated third-party figure of '10,000 lb static load' could not be traced to any fetched primary or dealer source), so load capacity is left null rather than assumed. Temperature resistance is not published by MAXTRAX and is left null.
