How Does BrakeMate Assist Technicians?
by Mark Keegans Heavy Vehicle Tool ManufacturersBrakeMate® Ltd has a range of products
that help technicians who handle heavy vehicles. With the products that are
manufactured by them, the technician’s work becomes easier and much safer. It helps
to reduce the potential of a work place injury. The products are very efficient
and since they are designed by technicians themselves, they are also very
practical. If the job at hand is a heavy duty drum
removal then the Drum Adapter which is an ideal add on to the BrakeMate
is a good idea. The adapter can be attached to the rotor hub trolley securely
and the drum can be lifted without any effort. Instead of buying equipment that
could be expensive, this product can be used instead.
How Does BrakeMate Benefit The
Technician?
BrakeMate as mentioned helps the
technician to lift heavy duty products. By eliminating manual lifting, it helps
in reducing the service time and the costs and reduces maintenance times. The
risk of back injury is highly reduced which is indeed a huge benefit to the
technician. The work height is perfect and they are easy to use. A heavy-duty drum removal can be done quickly and even
seal replacement and wheel bearings can be done very easily and in less time.
This is designed to assist in the maintenance of trailers, buses and trucks.
How To Prevent Wheel Nuts From
Losing Torque
When wheel nuts lose torque, they tend
to vibrate off and this could easily cause a major accident. This could happen
if dirt or paint happens to be present between the set of dual wheels or the
nuts were not put on properly. Sometimes if there has not been sufficient
rechecking, wheel nuts could lose torque. Even if clipping objects like gutters
causes shock loading on studs, wheel nuts lose torque but at most times it
happens because of the initial tension being incorrect. The wheel safety device
called (Squirrel) lug nut safety device helps to prevent this by applying a direct force- should there
be any chance of loss of clamping force-to the side of the wheel nut. Even when
the vehicle is moving, the Squirrel is providing protection. This product has
plenty of satisfied customers as it keeps the wheels secure. This is another
great product produced by BrakeMate, just like the heavy-duty drum removal product.
How To Separate Hub And Rotor?
If you ever experience a situation where
the hub and rotor of your vehicle is stuck maybe because of the chemicals on
the road, you can get them separated in a few minutes by using a V-Splitter
that is again another clever product produced by Brakemate. Forget doing it the
old way by using heat, sledge hammer or even a shop press. Another useful and
practical product like the one designed for heavy duty
drum removal.
BrakeMate has and is constantly working
on designing products that will help technicians handling heavy duty products
to do their job safely and easily. Not only are they well known in Australia,
they have also moved to North America and several European countries.
