MAXTRAX Mini Recovery Boards (Signature Orange, Pair)
MAXTRAX Mini Recovery Boards (Signature Orange, Pair)
The MAXTRAX Mini is a 25-inch traction board, sold here as a signature-orange pair. It runs the same UV-stabilised, engineering-grade reinforced nylon as the full-size MAXTRAX, with 44 molded teeth that bite into both your tire tread and the ground under it. Each board weighs 4.4 lb, so the pair is 8.8 lb. The two stack to just 3.5 inches tall and carry by built-in handles.
The Mini is roughly three-fifths the length of a full MAXTRAX board, which is the whole point: it fits small rigs, UTVs, vans, and trunks where a 45-inch board simply won't ride. That shorter deck gives less run-up, so for heavy trucks buried in deep sand or bog, full-size boards still pull harder. For lighter vehicles and moderate stucks in sand, snow, and mud, the Mini does the job and takes up a fraction of the space.
Each board has a shovel end for clearing material before you wedge it under a tire, plus keyhole accessory points for secure mounting. The Mini links to any other MAXTRAX board with the MAXTRAX Fixing & Linking Kit (sold separately) when you want more length. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty against material and workmanship faults.

Use cases
Made for lighter rigs and tight spaces: ATVs, UTVs, side-by-sides, vans, and small SUVs that hit sand, snow, or mud. The compact stack rides in a trunk, cargo box, or behind a seat, so it's there as keep-in-the-vehicle insurance when a full-size set won't fit.

Will the Mini work for a full-size truck?
It can help on a moderate stuck, but it's built for lighter rigs. The 25-inch deck gives less run-up than a full 45-inch board, so for a heavy truck buried in deep sand or bog, full-size MAXTRAX boards pull harder. For ATVs, UTVs, vans, and small SUVs, the Mini is right-sized.
How do I use them?
Use the shovel ends to clear loose material from the front of your drive tires, then wedge a board under each tire's leading edge. Drive on with gentle throttle. The 44 teeth grip both the tire tread and the ground so you climb out instead of spinning.
Can I join them to a full-size MAXTRAX set?
Yes. They link to other MAXTRAX boards using the MAXTRAX Fixing & Linking Kit (sold separately) to extend the recovery length when you need it.
Will I wear out the teeth?
Don't spin the tires on them. Spinning generates heat that can glaze or melt the teeth. Easy, steady throttle keeps the teeth intact and gets you moving more reliably anyway.
How do I store and maintain them?
The pair stacks to 3.5 inches and carries by built-in handles, so it fits a trunk, cargo box, or behind a seat. The nylon is UV-stabilised; rinse grit and salt off after beach, snow, or mud use to keep them clean.
