Betts New Poly Fender Announcement

Betts Spring Introduces Lightweight Poly Fender With Anti-Spray Benefits During Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week 2012

Las Vegas, NV(January 23, 2012) SprayOff™ Anti-Spray Poly Guard, the latest spray suppression innovation from Betts Spring Company, is being introduced this week during HDAW ’12. SprayOff’s™ engineered design is light weight, strong and incorporates a unique channel design which controls road spray.  Its use on commercial vehicles enhances fleet safety and reduces costs through weight reduction and diminished damage from corrosion. The safety and cost reduction benefits of SprayOFF™ will be on display Jan 23 – 25 in the combined Betts/Life-Time Fender exhibition booths #826 and #828 at the Mirage Events Center, Las Vegas, NV. 
 

Corrosion is a primary contributor to life-cycle costs for many trucking fleets.  Corrosion related damage can be reduced if less anti-icing chemicals come in contact with vehicle surfaces or enter the vehicle systems – a key element of SprayOff’s™ value proposition. By redirecting road spray down and away from the vehicle in a controlled manner, SprayOff™ diminishes a root cause of corrosion.  Additionally, control of road spray increases both the vehicle operator and other drivers’ visibility, improving safety by reducing the chance of accidents. 
 

SprayOff™ Anti-Spray Poly Guards weigh substantially less than most typical poly quarter fenders, yet are extremely durable. This unique combination of weight management and strength is the result of proprietary design principles applied during product development.  SprayOff™ accepts multiple top flaps, is assembled in standard or low mount configurations which can be field modified and are unhanded, accommodating easy change from left to right. SprayOff™ is now available through Betts and Life-Time Fenders distribution channels.
