Grote Industries has announced the launch of its latest product family. Dubbed the Plug-and-Go 3-in-1 Power Cord and Air Assemblies, the company said the new system offers fleets of mind and significant cost savings.
Flexibility for Fleet Diversity
The assemblies were created after Grote Industries said it recognized the challenges faced by fleets in maintaining compliance with important and rigorous industry safety standards.
“Our goal at Grote Industries is to support our customers in achieving legal compliance, meeting DOT requirements, and above all, ensuring safety,” said Bob Shively, U.S. director of sales for electrical connections and accessories at Grote Industries. “With our Plug-and-Go assemblies, we're offering a reliable and affordable solution that helps fleets stay safe and compliant while maximizing their bottom line.”
Available in two part numbers – the 81-3012 and 81-3015 – Grote's Plug-and-Go assemblies come in 12' and 15' lengths respectively, offering flexibility to meet the diverse needs of different fleets.
“There is demand in the marketplace for an economy-priced, feature-rich 3-in-1 with fully compliant components and packaging,” said Mike Marchese, national sales manager for Grote Canada. “Our distribution partners will certainly appreciate that Grote has once again delivered eye-catching, trilingual packaging to help them display and sell our products.”
Designed for Harsh Working Conditions
Featuring rubber grips and including a stainless-steel clamp and snap clip for quick installations, Plug-and-Go assemblies are designed with convenience in mind, from the aftermarket distributor all the way to the end-user, according to Grote.
The ABS power cord exceeds SAE J2394 standards, ensuring a secure connection to critical trailer safety systems, like LED signal lighting. Additionally, the rubber air hoses meet all DOT regulations for optimal performance under working pressure.
“With their ease of installation and resistance to harsh environmental conditions, these assemblies are poised to become indispensable assets for fleet operators across the industry,” said Shively.
