Accuride Corp. announced that it has launched two new tools: The Lightweight ROI Calculator, available on Accuride’s website and mobile application, which helps fleet operators determine their potential cost savings from making a switch to Accuride products, and Accuride’s 2016 Accuride Wheels Product Catalog, which includes two new 22.5 x 9.00 lightweight aluminum wheels and Accuride’s proprietary EverSteel coating technology.
With the new calculator, users can quickly estimate the potential cost benefits to their fleet by switching to high-quality, lightweight Accuride wheels and Gunite brake drums. The calculations are based on the real-world requirements of the customer’s fleet, including fleet type, region of operation, number of truck and trailer units, number of axles, component type and more. It estimates fuel savings and additional payload potential using Accuride wheels, Gunite brake drums and both products combined. In addition to Accuride’s mobile app, the Lightweight ROI Calculator is available here.
