Middletown, Ohio, United States – February 27, 2019 /MarketersMedia/

Some areas of the United States are experiencing unusual snowfall. Earlier this week, record-setting snowfall totals in places like Phoenix, Arizona had residents scratching their heads. Phoenix even set a new record for the “lowest high temperature” at 47 degrees recently, shattering the previous record of 54 set back in 1897 when Arizona was still a territory. Some locations within the metro Phoenix area received as much as 2 inches of snow. The snow and freezing temperatures in parts of the country had some drivers looking for additional measures to help keep their vehicles on the road.

The Weight-Mates by roto-molding company Granger Plastics is a system of tanks designed for pick-up truck beds, ranging from 6’ to 8’ in length, fitting securely in the bed of the truck. The tanks are filled with water adding from 500 pounds to as much as 830 pounds of weight directly over the rear axle of the truck. The tanks are easily filled via a threaded 2” opening with an additional threaded drain plug to be easily drained. Being rotationally molded from polyethylene, the Weight-Mates are extremely durable and can even be top loaded to the trucks bed capacity, allowing for continued use of the truck bed. The low-profile 6” height allows for maximum hauling space when in use.

Water-Mates are also available from Granger Plastics, providing the same all-weather traction benefits of the Weight-Mates of providing additional weight directly over the rear axle, but with the food grade construction of the water-mates, they allow for the water to be used for drinking, food or hygiene. In pace of the drain opening on the Weight-Mates is a spigot for easy dispensing for drinking water. Water-Mates are the perfect all-weather traction device for the off-roading or camping enthusiast. Both Weight-Mates and Water-Mates come with an anti-skid mat.
