TRP Aftermarket Parts introduced a line of mirrors for all makes of Class 6, 7 and 8 trucks. “TRP mirrors are manufactured to the highest quality standards, providing operators with an outstanding product for today’s market,” said Everett Seymoure, global manager for TRP.
TRP said it offers many styles of mirrors, such as an 8-in. convex mirror and a 7-in. by 16-in. west coast mirror. They come in a variety of finishes and are available for all Class 6, 7 or 8 trucks and tractors, regardless of manufacturer.
The west coast mirror comes in heated and non-heated options. The heated TRP west coast mirror features 12-volt heater elements with 60-in. leads, providing an efficient system for the cold weather season. Both the heated and non-heated options come with a mirror-bright stainless steel finish for added protection against the elements, heavy-duty multi-channel construction for durability and 5/16-in. No. 18 mounting studs for easy installation, according to the company.
The convex mirror comes in chrome steel for durability and visual appeal and features an L bracket for easy installation. It also has a 5/16-in. adjustable ball stud for strength and ease of use, and its glass is mounted in ozone-resistant vinyl for added protection against breakage, the maker noted.
TRP mirrors are backed by an 18-month warranty and are available through authorized Kenworth and Peterbilt parts and service distributors throughout North America.
Seymoure said because of their quality, TRP mirrors could help truck operators meet new regulations established under the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s Compliance, Safety, and Accountability (CSA) program.
“Starting in December, the condition of certain vehicle components, including mirrors, and maintenance records will play a greater role when federal and state inspectors consider the safety fitness of operators and their vehicles,” Seymoure said.
