Specialty Chemicals - Can give you the edge over competing truck companies

Trucking is a highly competitive industry where there is a constant battle to keep trucks on the road, reduce costs of labor, parts and fuel. This, in addition to finding and keeping both employees and clients, while not conflicting with federal regulations, state laws and insurance mandates. One tactic companies use is choosing specialty chemicals for their preventive maintenance that contain lubricity improvers.

Decreases Breakdowns

Every time a truck breaks down, time on the road is lost, and time is money. In addition to missed pick-up and delivery times there is the expense of towing and repair. Worst of all perhaps is what frequent breakdowns do to a trucking company’s reputation. Your customers need to know they can depend on you. With the need to get as many years as possible out of every truck in your fleet, the use of specialty chemicals found in the products E-Zoil supplies becomes vital.

When a water pump, fuel pump, or oil pump stops working and an engine overheats, it can stop a truck in its tracks. Even if there is no permanent damage to the truck’s engine, there is still the time lost waiting for a tow and getting the part replaced. Fuel Additives that contain lubricity improvers prevent breakdowns and the irate calls from clients who wonder where their freight is.

Increases fuel efficiency

No one can predict the price of a barrel of oil; moreover, the increase of diesel in relation to oil prices has made it very difficult for trucking companies to stay afloat. The high number of miles each truck in a fleet is driven means that even a small increase in fuel mileage makes a big difference. Lubricity improvers reduce friction and the energy/fuel required to run the engine. This means more miles per gallon, lower expenses and thereby higher profits. Increasing fuel efficiency can mean being able to maintain the competitive pricing that keeps old clients and attracts new ones. The specialty chemicals found in additives sold by E-Zoil make this increase in fuel efficiency possible.

Extends lifespan

Having to replace parts on trucks and eventually the whole truck is part of doing business but every trucking company wants to forestall replacement as long as possible. Specialty chemicals make possible products like those sold by E-Zoil that are lubricity improvers. Wear and tear on moving parts in an engine and the accompanying heat cause premature failure of a variety of parts.

Although how long a fuel pump, fuel injector, water pump, or oil pump will last cannot be accurately predicted, and replacing them before the average expected failure point is wise; it is not always foolproof. There is also the nagging suspicion that money is being wasted by replacing parts that may have had many more miles of good service left. By using one or more of the E-Zoil products, truck components last longer. The specialty chemicals used provide lubricity improvers allowing parts to be pushed beyond their average replacement point; this saves money, and time as well as reducing breakdowns.

The big three expenses a trucking company faces are fuel, equipment and labor. Fuel Additives that contain lubricity improvers reduce each of these expenses.
