Continental now offers an ultrasonic backup-sensor kit that can be retrofitted to or incorporated as OEM for virtually any vehicle including commercial vehicles, RVs and off-highway, agricultural and material-handling equipment.

Out of the box, the ultrasonic backup-sensor kit provides an audible alarm to the operator when the vehicle comes within 10 feet of an object and beeps faster as the driver gets closer to the obstacle. The kit also can customized for specific distance intervals to meet OEM specifications.

The innovative backup system delivers a voice announcement of object distance at specific intervals and easily integrates with on-board camera/monitor systems, according to Continental. When paired with a backup camera system, a monitor will display an overlay, revealing the active sensor(s) and the object distance from that sensor.

“Backup sensors are an essential component of operator and workplace safety in modern vehicles,” notes Jared Hall, Continental product manager. “The Continental ultrasonic back-up-sensor kit can be fitted to a wide variety of vehicles including commercial trucks, buses, RVs, fire trucks, garbage trucks and agricultural vehicles, as well as construction, mining and material handling equipment.”

The Continental ultrasonic backup-sensor kit is easy to set up and simple to configure as a retrofit or original equipment installation, according to the company. The kit includes four sensors, a central control unit and a speaker. Cameras, and monitors are available from Continental as options.

      Rislone announced its new 
      link hidden, please login to view (p/n 4400), which it said improves oil performance to eliminate dry starts, reduce friction and wear, prevent oil breakdown and extend engine life. “Its concentrated formula delivers legendary Rislone Hy-per Lube performance in a compact, easy-to-use, and shelf-friendly bottle,” the company added. Hy-per Lube Engine Supplement is a premium additive blend formulated to work with all motor oils, including conventional, high-mileage, and synthetic, to make older, high-mileage, and high-performance engines run better and last longer than they would with oil alone, according to
      link hidden, please login to view. It’s also suitable for use in manual transmissions, differentials and axles. Rislone said it previously offered the supplement in a one-quart bottle, making it easy to swap a quart of oil for a quart of Hy-per Lube at every oil change. Now that most consumers buy oil in larger jugs, Rislone added it took the opportunity to reduce the package size — and the price. Concentrating the formula enabled Rislone to package it in a 16.9 oz. bottle without diluting performance. The smaller bottle also reduces packaging waste and storage space.
      “Adding Hy-per Lube Engine Supplement to petroleum or synthetic oils turns them into hyper-performance lubricants that deliver heavy-duty protection for all driving demands across a wide range of engine and vehicle types,” said Clay Parks, Rislone vice president of development. “In these days of high prices, we’re proud to have found a way to lower ours. Our concentrated formula saves consumers money at the counter and in years to come by helping their engines last longer.”

      link hidden, please login to viewannounced it is now offering Advantage automated series clutch and Cummins flywheel kits for the Eaton-Cummins Endurant automated manual transmission (AMT). The two will be sold in the same kit for the first time, according to Eaton. An
      link hidden, please login to viewnews release announcing the product launch explained that a flywheel, which is the interface between the engine and clutch, is bolted to the engine and spins when in operation. The clutch cover, which is bolted to the flywheel, also spins, and the driven disc of the clutch engages against the flywheel, which over time can cause wear. “Today’s manufacturers recommend that flywheels should be replaced, rather than the previous practice of resurfacing worn flywheels,” said Leandro Girardi, director, aftermarket, Eaton’s Mobility Group. “This ensures the flywheel fits correctly to engage with the clutch, and prevents fault codes, excessive wear and vibrations.”
      Eaton said its Advantage Automated clutch is the original equipment clutch used in the Endurant transmission.
