Kinedyne manufactures/distributes more than 5,000 items, including flatbed products, chains, interior van products, webbing, beam systems, hardware, and more. Featured as part of the company’s 2012 MATS display will be two cost-saving products developed with both the driver and fleet owners’ needs in mind.
Kinedyne Polar™ and Tiger™ Tarp Ties
Kinedyne launched two new tarp tie brands in 2011 to meet the demands of the industry. The “POLAR” Natural Rubber Tarp Tie is designed to withstand frigid temperatures and severe winter weather conditions. The “TIGER” EPDM Rubber Tarp Tie (synthetic) is designed to resist UV degradation with high elastic retention and thus withstand the day-to-day environmental exposure to heat found in warmer climates. Both tarp ties feature crimped S-Hooks as a standard feature. Unlike competitors’ products that often tear when overstressed, extensive laboratory testing confirmed that all Kinedyne’s tarp ties are designed to avoid the tearing of the strap. If the product is overstressed the S-Hook will bend, allowing a driver to easily make a quick, economical fix in the field by replacing the S-Hook or bending it back.
Kaptive Beam® Solutions
Kinedyne Kaptive Beam Systems provide a “double-decking” solution designed to optimize trailer cube space for Interior Van fleet operators. The system actually creates a “second deck” in a trailer for storing cargo using a strategic system of tracks and beams. In the traditional “floor load” method, a trailer is usually filled to capacity before it reaches the allowable cargo weight limit.
The Kaptive Beam System utilizes the maximum cargo space inside the trailer and as a result decreases loading time, increases overall freight capacity, reduces freight damages, reduces lost decking beams and offers a more fuel efficient solution over the road. Kinedyne assures a fleet that their specialized decking team will consult, test and validate a solution that meets their needs.
