Minimizer announces the launch of its Clipless Slick Disk.
Minimizer states this new product is an update of the old Slick Disk, which featured a metal retaining ring designed to bind the disk to a trailer’s upper coupler. The Clipless Slick Disk removes the metal ring thanks to a self-securing design.
“The most common failure on the older style was the metal ring,” says High Bar Brands Designer Ryan Shepherd. “So, we looked at and tested several designs and found one that is stronger than competitive options on the market and can be installed in a fraction of the time.”
Part of Minimizer’s greaseless products line, the Clipless Slick Disk, like its predecessor, removes the need to grease the fifth wheel top plate and upper coupler, and it operates best when installed on a dedicated truck and trailer connection, the company says.
“Our line of greaseless or ‘Slick’ products has long stood out as one of the best time-savers on the market,” says Steve Hansen, High Bar Brands’ vice president of marketing and communications. “Not only will this eliminate the need for companies to spend time greasing, but the installation takes 30 seconds. It’s a no-brainer.”
