• Phillips Industries offers corrosion-fighting instructional materials

    May 6, 2013

    Phillips Industries has released instructional materials to help fleet managers fight the harmful effects of moisture contamination.

    The April 2013 issue of Phillips’ monthly newsletter, Qwik Tech Tips, addresses corrosion build up at the 7-way connection and ways to mitigate it. The most common warranty problem for this connection is loss of power to the blue circuit, Phillips said. The instructional materials explain why and offer tips on how to significantly reduce these events. 

    Future issues of the newsletter will cover other corrosion problem areas with their tips on how to solve them. To access the April issue of Qwik Tech Tips and to be included on the free monthly distribution, go to www.phillipsqwiktechtips.com.

    Also available from Phillips Industries is a wall poster listing the company’s top corrosion prevention tips.  The chart can be ordered free of charge by going to the literature tab at www.phillipsind.com and searching “corrosion.”
