Our Story

BUILT FROM A BLIZZARD.

One truck. Three feet of snow. Four miles to safety. What Mike Curry built that night is now sold worldwide.

Patented · Made in the USA · Sold worldwide

West Virginia, Winter

Necessity Is The Mother Of Invention.

Mike Curry owned a capable 4×4 and thought he would never get stuck. Then a blizzard left him stranded in three feet of snow on top of a mountain in West Virginia. He called for a tow truck and was told it would be at least a week before anyone could reach him.

With four miles to safety, a 30 inch track board was never going to cut it. Nothing on the internet solved the problem either, because nothing like it existed yet.

“He kept looking at his tires spinning but going nowhere, and realised the key was to harness the power of his tires.”

From Prototype To Patent

Two Years From Idea To Worldwide.

One stranded driver, one workshop, and a refusal to accept that nothing existed for this.

Stranded

A blizzard, three feet of snow, a week’s wait for a tow, and four miles between him and safety.

Prototype

Back in his workshop, trial after trial, until one design finally freed the truck and carried it down the mountain.

Patented

Two years of design, rigorous testing and due diligence, ending in design and utility patents.

Worldwide

Extended beyond snow to mud, ice and sand, and now sold to drivers around the world.

The Inventor

Mike Curry

Mike wasn’t trying to start a company. He was trying to get down a mountain. But once he had a design that worked, he knew straight away it could get other people to safety too and he went to work that same week.

He knew snow wasn’t the only hazard, so he developed TruckClaws to work in mud, ice and sand as well. Two years later it had patents, and not long after that, customers on every continent.

What Drives Us

What We Stand For.

Four things that have not changed since the first prototype came out of a workshop in West Virginia.

Made in the USA

Designed, tested and built domestically, and stamped that way for a reason.

Patented & Proven

Design and utility patents, earned after two years of testing rather than a rushed launch.

Every Terrain

Snow, mud, ice and sand. Built for the days that go wrong, not the easy ones.

Save Stranded Travelers

The original goal, and still the only measure of success that matters to us.

Recognition

Awarded, Reviewed, Relied On.

TruckClaws has picked up design and innovation awards, and been covered by press and rescue professionals alike. We are proud of all of it.

But the accolades we value most come from users who write in to say TruckClaws saved their life

TruckClaws was born out of a desire to help others, and we hear constantly from users who have used their set to free a stranded motorist. If you use your TruckClaws to help someone get unstuck and damage any part of your kit in the process, we will issue a Good Samaritan replacement.
