Quadratec
New Xtreme Fender Flares for JL Wrangler
Quadratec, Inc. recently released its new Quadratec Xtreme fender flares for Jeep Wrangler JL and Gladiator. The fender flares increase vertical tire clearance by nearly 3 in. over the OE Sport flares, and approximately .75 in. over the factory Rubicon flares. The enhanced and clever styling delivers a customized look that’s subtle, yet noticeable. Manufactured in the USA of durable 2mm-thick TPE plastic, the flares are UV resistant and virtually indestructible. Rubicon Xtreme Flares come complete with hardware and detailed installation instructions and there’s no drilling or modifications required.
Wilwood Disc Brakes
DOT 5.1 Rated Hi-Temp 570 Brake Fluid
Wilwood Hi-Temp 570 racing brake fluid has been a staple of circle track, road racing, and autocross markets for decades. The new lower viscosity fluid was specifically formulated to allow modern ABS, stability control, and brake-based limited-slip systems to react faster. The DOT 5.1 rated formula retains the 570° F dry boiling point and other features of the previous DOT 3 fluid. It continues to be highly resistant to aeration and foaming for an improved pedal feel, lap after lap.
For racers and cars without ABS, the new lower viscosity also makes bleeding and flushing your brakes quicker and easier, getting you back behind the wheel faster.
Brass Knuckle
SmartCut BKCR4420 Gloves
Brass Knuckle SmartCut BKCR4420 gloves offer A4 cut resistance with double-coated protection that combines slip resistance and permeation protection in a surprisingly dexterous glove.
These gloves deliver high-cut resistance without bulk. A foam nitrile top coat adds grip security for oils, petrochemicals, fuels and most acids. The sandy grip finish increases abrasion resistance and cut protection, all while being the most breathable and flexible glove in its class.
Over a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) shell goes a greener-formula water-based polyurethane (WBPU) coating as a palm and finger base coat that helps reduce penetration of liquids, including light oil. In this method, the polyurethane is infused into the glove with water rather than with potentially harmful chemicals such as dimethylformamide. The result is a superior, long-wearing glove that feels softer and provides excellent breathability, fit, and manual dexterity. It also reduces workers’ cumulative exposure to chemicals.
