With winter weather rapidly approaching, many pick-up truck owners are looking to add weight to the back of their pick-up trucks and one plastics company is offering a simple solution.

Middletown, United States – December 14, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —

As Christmas nears and temperatures drop many areas are seeing their first snowfall as well as increasing hazardous road conditions. In Michigan, just last week there was a 40-car pileup killing 3 people due to snowy conditions. Driving is always a concern during snow or other inclement weather conditions, which can create many problems including issues with vehicle traction and staying on the road. Drivers of vehicles such as pickup trucks sometimes add extra weight to minimize traction issues. A product called the Weight Mate is an all-weather traction device offering a solution to adding extra weight to the bed of a pickup truck easily and effectively. This must have safety product is flying off the shelves, often being purchased as a Christmas gift.

The Weight Mate all-weather traction device is a set of tanks designed for truck beds ranging from 6’ to 8’ fitting securely into the bed of the truck. The tanks are then filled with water adding up to 800 pounds of weight directly over the rear axle of the pick-up truck. The Weight Mates are made with a high-quality polyethylene and come with an opening for easy filling and an additional opening for easy draining. Weight Mates also have a low 6” profile leaving maximum hauling space, when in use.

Also available are Water Mates which are manufactured from food grade polyethylene. These offer the same benefits of added weight but allow the water to be used for drinking. In place of the drain opening is a spigot for easy dispensing of drinking water. Water Mates are perfect for off-roading or camping. Both the Weight Mates and Water Mates come complete with an anti-skid mat.
