Hub Alert® is a very effective tool for identifying wheel end problems that left undetected can result in roadside downtime and expensive repairs.
Features
Hi-tech sensor integrated with a weather resistant adhesive label
Thermosensitive area is hermetically sealed against moisture, oil, grease, fuels, solvents, water and steam
Easy to install
Highly visible for quick problem detection
Sensor area activates immediately as surface temperature reaches threshold level
Sensor accurately identifies overheated hub/hubcap surfaces
Adhesive attaches label to hub/hubcap and is highly effective in resisting displacement from environmental conditions and maintenance procedures including high pressure cleaning of wheels
