DIRECT FROM THE MANUFACTURER!
THE ARMAPLATE ARMACAT was invented after an international Van & Truck Manufacturer contacted Armaplate UK asking for help. They were suffering huge losses of Catalytic Converters and their customers were threatening to cancel all future orders. Working together, we came up with a practical and cost-effective solution.
The precious metals used inside ‘CATS’ means that they are a very attractive target to thieves and their low-hanging position makes theft a relatively easy task, taking just seconds to remove in some cases.
Our range of ArmaCats are uniquely tailor made to protect your particular van and are not a generic/universal makeshift design. Specific cooling requirements are factored into our design so that your cat can continue to perform as it was intended to.
Armaplate ArmaCats are constructed from high grade stainless-steel - there’s just nothing better! Our harsh UK Winters have no effect on our products and their inherent strength remains high throughout their time on your van. This product is made to ISO 9001 Standards and precision engineering means that everything fits perfectly every time.
Armaplate ArmaCats are easy to install and include everything you need to complete the job. No special tools are required and it takes around 20-30 minutes from start to finish. The kit includes special security fixings which make it virtually impossible to remove. Call us on 0845 838 0700 and let us protect your fleet.
WHY DO THIEVES STEAL CATALYTIC CONVERTORS?
Catalytic convertors contain many precious metals, hence the incredible cost of replacing them (and why they are targeted by thieves). On most vehicles, the ‘CATS’ are in a position which makes it easy for thieves to access them and in some cases it takes just seconds to remove them, which means they are open to attack any time of the day or night.
Thankfully, you can prevent these thefts by installing one of our ArmaCats which will help to keep your vehicle protected and potentially save you the cost and inconvenience of having to pay up to £3000 for a replacement.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
ArmaCats work by completely encasing the catalytic convertor with a stainless-steel wrap which has been designed to grip your cat and secure it to the chassis using a stainless-steel rope with special security fixings.
SPECIAL NOTE
The Armaplate ArmaCat was designed with the help of one of the world’s biggest van manufacturer and has unique features which allow the extreme heat of the catalytic convertor to be safely dissipated and therefore won’t lead to fires or effect your vehicle’s warranty.
