Strength with Flexibility - Reduce Cost of Mud Flap Curb Pinches with Betts DirectFlex®

Betts Vehicle Component Manufacturing has developed a Splash Guard System that can dramatically reduce the cost and downtime, not to mention ticket expense, caused by mud flap curb pinches.

Betts DirectFlex® System combines two uniquely designed components, the Betts DirectFlex® spring steel mud flap hanger and the Betts ChannelFlap® to provide a light weight and durable system that nearly eliminates the problems of lost or damaged mud flaps and hangers from curb pinches.

To see the DirectFlex System in action and learn more, go to Savvy Pro Cool Stuff and click on Betts DirectFlex System.

  Savvy Pro Training - Every Body Talks About It...  
 

We thought the Shop Tip above was so great we decided to add another feature to Savvy Pro News...each edition we will highlight web resources that can help deal with one of the biggest challenges in the maintenance world - training.

Training is a lot like the weather, everyone talks about it, but...

Well we are going to do something about it...and you can too.  If you come across an internet training resource that you would like to pass on to others, send it to us at Savvy Pro Training and we will mention it in a future Savvy Pro News.

To find links to training resources on the internet, go to TruckSavvy.com Quick Clicks, then click on Online Training.
