The abuses on today’s truck fittings and equipment are extreme, to say the least. Whether it be to pump corrosive materials (like fuel), load high pressure tanks, or transfer high temperature fluids the trucking industry depends on manufacturers to make quality fittings with long life cycles. Bestweld understands, and produces our fittings to meet, the requirements of truck manufacturers, engineers, and mechanics.
Alloys
In the past, piping and pumping systems on most Firetrucks were built from carbon steel or other materials susceptible to corrosion. Bestweld specializes in fittings for the trucking industry that are corrosion resistant Copper-Nickel (70/30, 90/10) and Stainless Steel (304L, 316L). When truck fittings are built with carbon steel and pump corrosive materials (like water from a fire hydrant) there is the potential for catastrophic failure of the onboard systems.
Industry Trends
Current industry trends show us that more truck manufacturers are building their trucks with pipe fittings and pumping systems made of light weight, corrosive resistant materials. Bestweld’s high quality pipe and pipe fittings are designed for severe corrosion, high temperature, high pressure applications. Bestweld’s truck fittings enable manufacturers, engineers, and mechanics to increase the shelf life, strength and reliability of their trucks, all while cutting costs.For more information on Bestweld’s Truck fittings follow the links below:
