Sturdy Toolz for Towing

When you need to get casualty vehicles moved from off-road with more force and pulling power, consider using the Xtreme kinetic energy recovery rope from TowToolz. Once the soft shackle is hooked up, just yank hard to get the vehicle out of mud, sand or snow. The 1/2-inch diameter X 12-inch Spectra Fiber Soft Shackle is lightweight for easier handling and maneuverability yet boasts an MTS (Minimum Tensile Strength) of 46,900 pounds. Even higher ratings are available with thicker synthetic rope sizes. Honeywell says its Spectra Fiber is 15 times stronger than steel, and more durable than polyester. This product also floats on water, and resists chemicals and abrasion.

Plug ’n Play Electric Genset

Viatec’s latest product, the SmartPX, is a a plug-in, all-electric alternative to gasoline or diesel generators. This unit is a true electric genset that, unlike an inverter, uses a rotary generator to produce pure sinewave 120VAC/ 240VAC power to run demanding equipment, creating a safe and quiet worksite for operators. It also helps companies meet ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals while outperforming its combustion counterparts with the simplicity of an electric powertrain. The SmartPX was piloted on step-vans for the utility company Duke Energy, which collaborated with Viatec to develop its “Smart” family of products to meet fleet-level emissions goals.
