Etrack: A Load Off Your Mind

One of a trucker's greatest fears is an accident where loss of cargo or personal injury occur. Even with this fear forefront in his mind, he may be pressed to drive faster than the law allows or through adverse weather in an effort to make a target delivery date. Most times, safety and speed are conflicting priorities and something has to give.

Some truckers have found ways to be more safety-conscious as they skirt the limits of the law. Regardless of those choices, the underlying necessity of stable cargo load is of vital importance on the highway and the interstate. That's where etrack can help.

Load Balancing

Etrack is an ingeniously simple system for establishing multiple anchor points within a trailer. The more anchor points that exist, the greater the number of choices a driver has for configuring his load to its optimal balance or stabilization.

Etrack is made of high-strength steel and available in either galvanized or powder coated finish. The variety of lengths available provide great flexibility: 2', 5', 8', 10' lengths mean a rig owner can configure the placement of the etrack to best suit his own needs.

The lengths of material are lined on the outside with holes. The holes are for securing the track to the floor of your trailer and on into the frame. A number of etrack fittings can be found at online retailers, including d-ring and o-ring styles.

After the system is installed, a driver has the opportunity to distribute his cargo load more evenly than ever before. When cargo is better loaded, there is less risk of shift during tight turns or steep inclines. Both driver and persons in other vehicles traveling alongside are much more safe with etrack in place.

So go on, get on the road safely.
