Truck and Trailer Guide
Landoll Corporation has a new option for customers that will be operating in the extreme weather conditions of northern Canada and Alaska. The new “Arctic Hose Package” may be installed on the full line of Landoll’s traveling axle trailers.
Landoll trailers have standard components that operate in conditions down to minus 20 F. When working in areas that are consistently below that temperature, Landoll recommends the all new “Arctic Hose Package option”. Special air and hydraulic lines are installed that have operating ranges down to minus 40 F. The arctic hose package also includes special grease that operates well down to minus 58 F and that has pump-ability to minus 22 F. Two items that do not change are the standard E-Chain that is rated to minus 40 F while the hydraulic oil used in the hydraulic cylinders has a rating of minus 30 F.
Many oil field related activities are operating year round in the northern winter belt where temperature swings are very severe. Standard trailer components will freeze like rocks, said, Jim Ladner sales manager of Landoll Corporation
