EkoStinger boasts advancement beyond side skirt capabilities

EkoStinger highlights aero advancements

EkoStinger recently highlighted the safety benefits of its aerodynamic offering, helping make the roads a safer place for both truck drivers and non-truck traffic, the company said.

According to the company, the EkoStinger helps make the trailer far more stable than a regular trailer, especially in high cross wind situations. The trailer tracks straighter and reduces mist by at least 70%, enabling drivers to have better rear visibility, according to the manufacturer. The company also noted that the EkoStinger provides fleets with fuel savings of up to 6%.

The EkoStinger System is designed as a two part system, the company explained. It features a cross member cover that keep the cross members and floor clean and dry throughout the life of the trailer, adding to the life of the trailer, while reducing repairs. Additionally, there is a movable arrow portion of the device that moves tandem without driver interaction, keeping the aerodynamics consistent in any tandem position or driving condition, the company said. “The combination of these two systems provides the fleet owner with safer driving conditions for their drivers, prolongs the life of the trailer, reduces maintenance and consistently saves fuel,” the company stated.
