PRODUCTS FLEET MANAGEMENT SAFETY PRODUCTS FOR COMMERCIAL FLEETS
Freight Products UK has introduced a range of safety products designed to help commercial vehicle managers meet specific health and safety compliance regulations. ● Wheel nut indicators: loose wheel nut indicators are small pointed tags made of fluorescent plastic which fix to the lug nuts of the wheels of large vehicles. The tag rotates with the nut and should the nut become loose the Indicator shifts noticeably out of alignment to highlight the problem so repairs can be made. ● Commercial vehicle health and safety pack: a convenient way to access all the health and safety signage that must be displayed on commercial vehicles. With all items complying with both FORS and Crossrail regulations, the packs include a range of stickers including speed restrictions, legal capacity, ‘no smoking’, ‘seatbelts must be worn’ and Fresnel lenses. ● Torque tower: a torque loss and wheel overheating indicator for recessed nuts. This clever design includes an open top to prevent heat insulation that can lead to false-positive overheating results. Torque Tower is available in two heights to suit different wheel trim designs and avoid the product protruding from the wheel. “We are always looking at new
innovations that will complement our existing range of vehicle health, safety and signage products,” says general manager
