A SAFETY FEATURE THAT
“SAVES YOU MONEY”

A flat spot on a tire will occur within 200 feet of drag. A dragged tire has lost its circumference and the torque specs of the wheel would be unsafe due to the stress on the hub, studs and the rim.

A wheel rotates 489 revolutions within a distance of a mile. The heat generated by tire rotation could add stress to the other mechanical parts of the wheel assembly, making it an unsafe tire on a moving trailer. This could be one of the reasons why trailers are losing their wheels.

Hand painted tires on trailer require the driver to perform 180 degree swing left to right to check his tires, making it unsafe. Hand painted tires, do not look professional and defaces the look of the fleet. (Zebra look)

A Government test of the SKIDDD Indicator was performed in the United States and Canada for a period of 18 months. The drivers felt comfortable with the SKIDDD Indicators which were clearly visible when viewing from their truck mirrors.

We feel that these indicators would be a reliable safety feature on all trailers and rigs. There are numerous vehicle accidents on our highways involving semi-trailers because there isn’t many safety
prevention devices on the market.
