Coils for the cold
Phillips Industries has developed Polar Air, an air coil designed for cold weather travel. “The SAE requires air coils to be made with nylon tubing. Nylon becomes brittle and stiff in cold weather,” said Rob Phillips, general manager. “The Polar Air is made with a heavy-duty jacketing, extruded over nylon tubing to protect against freezing in the winter and UV rays in the summer — both which degrade standard nylon tubing. This high-strength jacketing will protect against shattering, kinking or fracturing of any type.”
Polar Air’s heavy-duty jacketing allows it to stay flexible to -85 F and resist corrosion and abrasion. It is also equipped with an extended brass handle, which adds increased leverage to the gladhand. For more information, visit www.phillipsind.com.
