Betts Spring offers lightweight, anti-spray poly fender

The SprayOff Anti-Spray Poly Guard is lightweight, strong and incorporates a unique channel design that controls road spray. It redirects road spray down and away from the vehicle in a controlled manner, diminishing a root cause of corrosion.

Betts Spring Co. recently introduced its new SprayOff Anti-Spray Poly Guard, which the company said is lightweight, strong and incorporates a unique channel design that controls road spray.

Its use on commercial vehicles enhances fleet safety and reduces costs through weight reduction and diminished damage from corrosion, the maker added.

Corrosion-related damage, a primary contributor to life-cycle costs for many trucking fleets, can be reduced if less anti-icing chemicals come in contact with vehicle surfaces or enter the vehicle systems. This is a key element of SprayOff’s value proposition; by redirecting road spray down and away from the vehicle in a controlled manner, SprayOff diminishes a root cause of corrosion, according to the company. Additionally, control of road spray increases both the vehicle operator and other drivers’ visibility, improving safety.

The poly guards weigh substantially less than most typical poly quarter fenders, yet are extremely durable, according to Betts Spring. SprayOff accepts multiple top flaps, is assembled in standard or low mount configurations that can be field modified and are unhanded, accommodating easy change from left to right.
