Commercial Vehicles

The commercial vehicle industry is very competitive and therefore the efficiency of the vehicles is a key factor to companies winning the business as well as being able to make a profit from the contracts. This means that the more the vehicle is on the road and delivering what it should be doing the better for everyone involved.

The vehicles need to be extremely robust with the vast amount of miles they cover as well as the harsh environments they are often used in. They do not want to be off the road for maintenance of bolted joints or for a fastener coming loose and causing a potential near miss or worse an accident whilst out on the road.

The nature of driving on the road causes natural vibration through a vehicle which is amplified in a heavy commercial vehicle with all the additional weight and its load.
