Haulage company BR Saunders trials new wheel security solution CogLock
BR Saunders (Transport) Ltd have been successfully trialling CogLock on a VOLVO FM12 fitted with a crane which is used for lorry loader operations and is now set to expand the trial across their fleet. CogLock provides the ultimate wheel security solution to help protect operators and their fleets. Specifically designed to prevent wheel detachment, CogLock’s innovative design provides a visual indicator, secure locking mechanism, and streamlines maintenance
Duncan Saunders, Senior Operations Manager at BR Saunders (Transport) Ltd said: “The trial is going very well. The drivers particularly like the visual element of CogLock. “As an operator, CogLock gives us the reassurance of ‘No Wheel Lost’ which is enormous and we are 100 per cent going to add CogLocks to more of the fleet.”
The third-generation family run business boasts a fleet of more than 60 vehicles and specialises in self-loading and unloading vehicles, ranging from 1 to 95 tonne lifting capacity including fly jib and winch. CogLock founder Chris Coghill adds: “It’s fantastic news that BR Saunders are so impressed with CogLock and plan to expand the trial across their fleet. “It’s been brilliant working with the technicians and getting their feedback on the product too, as they are the people who are repairing these vehicles on a daily basis.
It has been great to hear how user friendly CogLock, confirming our belief that it not only provides protection against wheel loss, but it is also easy to use and maintain with minimal downtime.” CogLock is suitable for all HGVs, buses and coaches and is aimed at all fleet operators, customers who have experienced wheel loss in the past or continue to see issues with loose wheel nuts, and vehicle providers. Alongside full training for operators, drivers and workshop technicians, all vehicles fitted with CogLocks are issued with a door decal with a QR code, which provides operating and repair instructions for anyone who hasn’t yet received training on the product.
CogLock is rigorously tested and certified for reliability and safety and holds an industry leading 2-year warranty.
