New 18-Volt DC & 120-Volt AC PowerLubers
F
LO Components is now offering two new PowerLubers recently added to the popular Lincoln family of grease guns. The new 120-volt and 18-volt PowerLubers each offer power, durability and convenience. The first of its kind in the industry, the 120volt corded PowerLuber’s motor provides the highest torque values in its class. Its variable-speed trigger combines with a two-speed transmission for precise flow control. Ideal for filling grease reservoirs, the 120-volt grease gun is an excellent alternative to pneumatic lube tools. This corded grease gun eliminates the need for carrying around extra batteries or for compressed air supply. Developed for heavyduty applications, the 18-
volt PowerLuber features a high-output motor and battery technologies that unite to provide outstanding run time. The grease gun deliv-
ers exceptional performance in high-pressure applications, and its twospeed transmission provides a high-volume grease flow option. Each model features a high-strength composite body and metal gear and pump housing for longevity. In addition, each tool has a balanced,
ergonomic design to reduce operator fatigue and increase productivity. FLO Components will be exhibiting at the Truck

Truck-Lite Co., Inc.
New Line of LED Lighting Products
F
alconer, NY - Today, Truck-Lite Co., Inc. announced the “release of an innovative line of LED lighting products that allow for flexible mounting, without the need for additional accessories and with versatile wire options that all add up to saving the customer money”, said Bob Ives, Vice President of Marketing. Named the Flex-Lite, the new line of LED products features two new robust thermoplastic housing designs, allowing for a flexible mounting surface to be molded directly around the lens. The unique design of the “winged” version allows for a wide array of mounting options and is ideal on the corner radius for trailer and body applications. Truck-Lite believes that the “non-winged” version will be popular in the aftermarket because
of its versatility to immediately replace failed lamps without tools or additional parts and its ability to cover the holes left behind from initial installation. Manufactured with a specially engineered peel-and-stick adhesive backing, the lamps are affixed to the surface with a heavy-duty adhesive that’s designed to hold up
ing a permanent installation that’s quick and easy. Available with both a rear-exit and side-exit wiring housing style, the lamps allow for both installation without a wiring feed hole (for installation against any flat surface), as well as a clean installation with power and ground wires feeding
to weather, impact and much more while maintaining a strong hold. Their adhesive backing has been rigorously tested against pressure washing and other elements, offer-
into the vehicle or trailer body. The small, low profile design of the Flex-Lite lamps is extremely resistant to damage from impact, heat entrapment and as it’s
less than ½” protrusion from the vehicle making it an excellent option along narrow mounting rails, above loading doors or wherever space is at a premium. “The installation of the Tr u c k - L i t e ’s F l e x - L i t e line of lighting products can considerably decrease the time
needed on the production line, or when retrofitting existing vehicles” said John Howells, TruckLite’s Vice President of
Sales. “Traditional clearance and marker lighting products require the use of accessories and mounting tools, which can make installation cumbersome and time consuming task, especially while positioned on ladders at the top of
heavy-duty trailers. The features of the Flex-Lite line of LED products not only remove the need to purchase costly mounting plugs and brackets, but also eliminate the added
time to drill, assemble and install these additional accessories”, continued Howells. Flex-Lite is a trademark of Truck-Lite Co., Inc. headquartered in Falconer New York, with additional manufacturing facilities in Wellsboro, Coudersport, and McElhattan, Pennsylvania, as well as Birmingham and Harlow England, and other facilities around the world. Truck-Lite is a major producer of signal lighting, forward lighting, wiring harnesses, mirrors, turn signal switches, and safety accessories to the heavy duty truck, trailer, and commercial vehicle industries.
