Performance Specification · MAXAM
§ 01
Overview
K–12 + community recreation
The patented slant-frame telescopic platform behind 10+ million seats installed worldwide with zero structural failures.
Independently verified under ICC-ES Evaluation Report ESR-5033, the first and only ICC-ES Evaluation Report in the telescopic seating industry. Independent third-party structural testing to 200 % of design load confirms the safety margin behind that record.
MAXAM is the K–12 and community-recreation workhorse — engineered for the standard gymnasium without the premium-platform price.
§ 02

Engineering · Understructure
The understructure — frame, beams, locking
F-01
Slant-frame construction
Patented angled-column geometry transfers occupant load through the structural design rather than fighting it — the foundation of the 10M+ zero-failure record. 14-gauge post columns and 10-gauge cantilever arms.
F-02
Continuous Positive Interglide (CPI)
Skirted U-shape wheel channel with patented Low-Profile Posi-Lock LX row locks — prevents separation and misalignment, transmits sway loads under occupant load, and supports field adjustment of row spacing.
F-03
Lubrication-free for life
No annual greasing. No maintenance contract. Sealed at install and stays quiet for the life of the platform.
F-04
Non-marring 5″ casters
Soft-rubber face; less rolling friction than competitor casters — no marks, no scuffs on a freshly refinished gym floor.

Bridge-chair rule
If your spec needs a Metro fold-down chair, the platform is MAXAM+, not MAXAM — see the MAXAM+ Performance Specification.
