2018 Summer Tow Truck Gear Guide

Summer is here, and it’s time for a busy towing season. Plenty of people need help with their cars as they’re traveling to and from their destinations. And you and your tow truck are going to come to the rescue. But in order for you to be a towing superhero, you need the right tow truck gear. Check out our summer gear guide so you can be prepared for summer towing.

1. Aluminum & Metal Cleaner/Brightener

By: Shield Solutions

This aluminum and metal cleaner will help your truck shine in the sun this summer. It’s easy to use, and what better way to get some great reviews for your towing business than with a shiny, clean tow truck?

Shield Solutions Aluminum & Metal Cleaner/Brightener:

  • Cleans the aluminum, stainless steel, and chrome sections of your tow truck and brighten them.
  • Removes spots caused by rust, oxidation, and water.
  • Works well with diamond plate and stainless wheels.
  • Is safe to use on vehicle surfaces.
  • Does not etch aluminum.

2. ComStar Xtreme

  • Easy to talk to your team – you don’t need PPT Buttons.
  • Do not have a wire or beltpacks, allowing for easy movement.
  • Have an 800-yard range.

3. CL-1000 Cycle Loader

By: Condor

Summer is prime time for motorcycles. With the CL-1000, you can easily recover motorcycles that are disabled using a rollback tow truck. It’s safe and secure, and it suits all motorcycles. It’s easy to take on and off your truck, too.

The CL-1000…

  • Only requires one person.
  • Will not damage motorcycles.
  • Can be attached and removed quickly and easily.

4. Power-link Overhead Light Bars

By: TowMate

Source: http://www.towmate.com/ParabolicTechnology

These lights use peripheral parabolic technology to illuminate the scene of a tow. The light is visible from a long distance, allowing oncoming traffic to see you. It’s also focused close to the source, so you won’t be blinded in your own light. The light is amber-colored. A helpful piece of tow truck gear to help you stay safe during late-night towing calls.


5. Spare Tire Kit
