Brake Safety Week means proactive maintenance, says Pro-Cut
Pro-Cut has announced their support for the efforts of the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) and its Brake Safety Week initiative held August 23-29.
Brake Safety Week is a seven-day focused inspection and enforcement initiative designed to improve safety by ensuring that commercial motor vehicles on the roadways are operating with properly maintained and functioning braking systems.
A word from Pro-Cut
“Brake Safety Week is the ideal time for commercial vehicle service providers to encourage their customers to take advantage of comprehensive brake inspections,” said Bruce Prince, national sales manager, North America for Pro-Cut. “Proactive maintenance helps ensure commercial vehicle braking systems are operating safely and at peak performance.”
“When brake inspections identify the need for rotor service, the Pro-Cut X1 on-truck brake lathe helps shops complete those repairs effectively while ensuring vehicles return to the road quickly,” said Prince. “The X1 is expertly designed for significant labor time savings since rotors can be resurfaced quickly and efficiently on the vehicle, reducing total vehicle downtime from days to hours.”
