Stainless steel hub assembly, a bronze or aluminum swivel joint, and a riser are available, as well as optional rollers. www.hannay.com Fuel & Service Trailer lightweight, durable aluminum housing with a virtually indestructible polycarbonate lens. www.superbrightleds.com Conveyor Rollers Thunder Creek Equipment has developed a double wall fuel tank and trailer combination that is compliant with the EPA's SPCC Program as well as DOT406 and Transport Canada regulations. The double wall tank design provides 110% fuel containment with a 990 gallon fuel tank mounted inside a protective secondary tank. The pumping system, fill ports and vents are also located within the secondary tank thereby securing the fuel supply behind two lockable, hatch-style doors. Used alone, the tank is a secure, on-site solution for storing and dispensing fuel. Used in conjunction with a trailer base also available from Thunder Creek, it becomes a mobile fueling station. Features like four fuel surge baffles, a rugged 8-in. Cchannel chassis and torsion axles streamline transporting fuel between job sites. www.ThunderCreekEquipment.com Flexco recently announced the addition of the CoreTech line of rollers to its wide range of products designed to maximize belt conveyor productivity. The next generation of troughing and return rollers are made of lightweight, high strength, corrosion- and abrasion-resistant composite materials. Despite the heavy-duty construction and solid performance, the rollers are 40%-50% lighter than steel. In most cases, a CoreTech roller requires only one person to lift, carry, and place, requiring less manpower and increasing productivity, while adhering to one-person lifting limits. With low breakaway mass, the rollers also require less energy or torque to start rotation. This, plus a low running friction, decreases power consumption and can contribute to lower electric bills. www.flexco.com Blasting Hose Reel Hannay Reels 3000 Series reel features an economical manual rewind that efficiently pays out long lengths of hose.
