The trailer hitch-mounted work light offers high light output and convenient mobility combined with a rugged and adjustable minitower designed to be mounted on vehicle trailer hitches. Lightweight, and easily collapsed and broken down, this portable work area light offers operators the ability to transport and operate a high-power lighting solution from just about any vehicle equipped with a trailer hitch. Despite its light weight and portability, this LED work light is built for rugged use with an LED light head constructed with a thick aluminum housing and unbreakable LEXAN lens, and a minitower built from heavy-duty aluminum. The LED light head on this work light produces 14,790 lumens of bright white light capable of illuminating areas as large as 540 feet long by 480 feet wide and is waterproof to protect against damage from the elements.

Yale-Cordage-Hy-Dee-BraitYale Cordage, a custom and specialty rope manufacturer, has announced that its Hy-Dee Brait dielectric rope is the first and only rope on the market to meet the newly published ASTM F1701-12 standard for ropes with special dielectric properties.

Hy-Dee Brait is an eight-strand bipolymer rope that provides excellent grip and is treated with the company’s proprietary chemical mixture, Aralube-dielectric. The treatment is critical to the rope’s wet dielectric performance, which makes it the highest dielectric strength rope commercially available. Under the new ASTM F1701-12 standard, the rope must not exceed a maximum leakage of 250 microamperes at any time during wet testing performed at 50 kV AC.

In addition to its extraordinary dielectric properties, the Hy-Dee Brait is now easier to splice with a tucking procedure or by the quick splice method.

CyberLock-CylindersCyberLock cylinders from Videx can increase security for the utility and distribution industries. The electromechanical lock cylinders are designed to operate in a wide variety of applications where high security is required, such as entry gates, substations, containers, equipment closets, remote storage areas, trucks and storage bins. The system’s electronic keys cannot be duplicated or copied, and can be deactivated if lost or stolen, reducing the risk of unauthorized entry.

“CyberLock cylinders and padlocks perform extremely well in wet, corrosive environments; this allows our customers in the distribution industry to secure critical infrastructure at all times,” said James McGowan, Videx vice president of sales and marketing. “And best of all, with the auditing features provided by both the lock and the key, our customers know who accessed what lock and when.”
