CushionStop Rear Impact Guard
Repair and replacement of ICC bumpers is
a regular maintenance challenge for many
truck operators.
The
CusionSTOP Rear Impact Guard from
TransFreight Technologies is a
hydraulically cushioned bumper that
absorbs many bumps from the rear without
damage and can be quickly and easily
repaired or replaced. This
dramatically reduces downtime and cost.
In fact,
CusionSTOP Rear Impact Guard may be
the last Rear Impact Guard you need.
For more information, click on the
CushionStop Rear Impact Guard link.
