Middlefield, OH (July 22, 2025) – Crankbaits offer anglers various options, from lipless rattle baits to elongated stick baits and ultralight tiny minnows to big-time action-lipped cranks. Flambeau knows crankbaits are a staple in any angler’s playbook and designed the ZERUST® MAX Crank Bank to provide the perfect storage, protection, and organization.
Protect investments in fishing tackle like crankbaits at the molecular level from rust and corrosion with Flambeau’s® ZERUST® technology. The Zerust® Max Crank Bank builds on the Flambeau legacy as the pioneering force and industry leader in anti-corrosion tackle storage. Flambeau’s exclusive Zerust® VCI products consist of a proprietary chemical formulation that releases an invisible, odorless, tasteless, and FDA-safe vapor that diffuses throughout the MAX Crank Bank and settles on all exposed metal surfaces to form a protective molecular layer. This protective layer inhibits the electrochemical reactions that cause rust and corrosion to form. Storage in a ZERUST® container results in unmatched rust prevention performance for at least 5 years in extreme environments. This dynamic innovation offers anglers an enhanced level of Zerust® VCI vapor technology, now impregnated directly into the entirety of each box.
Featuring 24 removable cups, the Crank Bank’s inventive system gives anglers fast access to individually stored and independently protected hard baits. Flambeau’s Zerust® Crank Bank is designed to fit standard billed lures sized in a variety of diving depth classes, including round-bill crankbaits (15 feet or less), square-bill crankbaits (8 feet or less), and jerk baits (6 feet or less). Individual crankbait storage with ZERUST® protection means more time fishing and less time fighting with tangled baits and rusted hooks. The Crank Bank isn’t just a vault for various crankbaits; it’s a convenient and versatile storage solution for spooks, poppers, frogs, crawfish, and other hard-sided baits. The MAX Crank Bank with ZERUST® by Flambeau is built to fish and last.
The MAX Crank Bank by Flambeau® provides anglers with ergonomic and versatile storage and organization for crankbait storage. There’s a ZERUST® storage option to fit all types and sizes of fishing tackle. From plastics to plugs and panfish to saltwater adventures, there is a ZERUST® MAX Tuff Tainer® that fulfills the task at hand.
