Minimizer Launches New Heavy Duty Truck Products

minimizer-flatbed-tool-caddyMinimizer is launching two new products – the Trailer Slick Plate and the Tool Caddy.

“These products, consistent with our Tested and Tortured brand, offer solution-based answers for those in the heavy duty trucking industry,” said Minimizer CEO Craig Kruckeberg.

A self-lubricating polymer plate that attaches to a trailer’s upper coupler, the Trailer Slick Plate eliminates messy grease issues and offers easier maintenance, Minimizer said. Additionally, the tool reduces wear on the truck’s fifth wheel and the trailer’s upper coupler, makes trailer handler easier and increases steer tire life, the company adds.

The Tool Caddy joins Minimizer’s Maintenance Line and attaches to a tire to create an area to store up to 100 pounds of tools and other necessary equipment. Ideal for breakdowns on the side of the road, the Tool Caddy fits standard tires from 245 to 295, Super Single tires and flatbed trailers, Minimizer adds. The flatbed version also fits inside a 36-inch Minimizer Tool Box.
