Winter is upon us and that brings a unique set of challenges in the performance and maintenance of heavy duty equipment. The winter months bring snow, ice, grit, grime, brine, and the most damaging of all, corrosive snow removal agents such as magnesium or calcium chloride. These winter elements all possess factors that contribute to the damage of both 5th wheel and landing gear components in the form of a corrosive agent that is more aggressive than ever seen before in our industry. JOST International has proactively developed a set of ‘Seasonal Winterization Tips’ for both JOST 5th wheels and standard JOST landing gear. By following these recommended procedures you can minimize the effect that the upcoming winter conditions will present to the industry.
