New centralized lubrication system for trailers

greases hard to reach points quickly and easily

System allows manual lubrication for up to 12 points on a trailer

MORRISVILLE, N.C., USA (December 2004) — Bijur Lubrication Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of centralized lubrication systems and components, today announced the general availability of its ChassisCare SureShot centralized lubrication system for trailers. The product will be assembled and shipped from Bijur’s plant in Kinston, NC.

The ultra-light ChassisCare SureShot system provides owners/operators with a quick and easy way to lubricate cam shafts and slack adjusters. No more crawling under trailers to locate hard-to-reach zerk fittings. Just walk up to the distribution block, which is conveniently located on the trailer frame. Insert a manual grease gun and lubricate all points on the trailer. A task that would normally take up to a half hour only takes 2 to 3 minutes with the ChassisCare SureShot system.

“Owners/operators need this product,” Thomas W. Arndt, President and COO of Bijur, said. “Not only does it provide fast lubrication of the entire trailer, it also extends break life and increases driver safety. In today’s world, that is a valuable combination.”

Key features available with the ChassisCare SureShot system include:

·  Clear coat anodized distribution block – allows lubrication for three to 12 points on a trailer

·  Compression fittings – assure secure tubing connections

·  Variety of zerk fittings for distribution block – provides greater flexibility for installation

·  Sturdy tubing -- prefilled with NLGI #2 approved trailer chassis grease

·  Low price point – 12-point systems start at under $250

“With the demand for trailers to run longer and more efficiently, the ChassisCare SureShot system is a necessity,” Don Schaefer, Mobile Product Manager, said. “It is a product that makes economic and common sense. We anticipate the ChassisCare SureShot system will have a high market acceptance and will become the industry standard for trailer lubrication.”
