The line of
Monroe® Quick-Strut® premium replacement strut
assemblies from
Tenneco Inc. will grow once again in early
2012. This expansion – comprising nearly 40 SKUs covering
approximately 20 popular light truck, sport-utility vehicle
and passenger car models – reflects record demand for the
company's timesaving premium, guaranteed, all-in-one strut
replacement solution.
Tenneco’s Monroe Quick-Strut production capacity is also
at an all-time high, with seven U.S.-based production lines
now dedicated to the strut assembly category. The company was
the first to introduce a complete strut assembly for the
aftermarket, in 2003, and already offers significantly more
SKUs than any other manufacturer.
“We receive new requests for Quick-Strut coverage almost every
day,” said Bill Dennie, director of ride control channel
management, North American Aftermarket, Tenneco. “As the pioneer in this category, we
have continued to lead other suppliers in every key area
affecting installers and consumers, including the technologies
available within each Quick-Strut unit, application coverage
and the confidence that comes with a comprehensive quality and
performance guarantee.”
In addition to expanding Quick-Strut coverage, Tenneco has
added a new damping technology that enables installers to meet
the unique ride control demands of today’s foreign nameplate
vehicles. The Quick-Strut line now includes the Monroe brand’s
revolutionary OESpectrum® struts, which provide exceptional
control without the unwanted noise, vibration and harshness
commonly encountered in vehicles with lighter-weight
suspensions and low-profile tires. Quick-Strut assemblies
engineered for domestic passenger cars are equipped with
premiumMonroe Sensa-Trac® struts, while units for domestic
light trucks and SUVs are equipped with Monroe Reflex®
struts.
“By choosing Monroe Quick-Strut assemblies, shops can be
certain that the strut’s construction and valving technology
have been carefully tuned to meet the unique needs of each
model. Relying on another supplier, who might offer only one
technology across all makes and models, could lead to
compromises in overall ride characteristics in some cases,”
Dennie said.
Each Monroe Quick-Strut assembly represents careful attention
to detail in the form of a premium strut featuring Tenneco’s
exclusive, application-engineered valving technologies;
precisely calibrated coil spring; robust bearing plate; and
other high quality parts designed specifically for the
vehicle. Each component isselected by Tenneco engineers to
help restore the vehicle’s original ride and handling
characteristics. Every Quick-Strut assembly is backed by the
company’s popular limited lifetime warranty and 90-day Safe &
Sound® guarantee.
