Philatron Tackles Trucking Maintenance Woes with New Stallion Coil

Heavy-duty trucking fleets face constant equipment failures from traditional 3-in-1 straight hose assemblies, which often kink, sag, or chafe during tight maneuvers. Seeking to eliminate these persistent maintenance headaches, Anaheim-based Philatron Wire and Cable has launched its Stallion Brand 3-in-1 coiled assembly, backed by an industry-leading three-year warranty.

Straight-line assemblies commonly suffer from mechanical stress, as rigid rubber hoses rely on pogo sticks or spring hangers to manage slack. When these systems fail, the lines drag against catwalks or get caught in tractor tires, leading to immediate Department of Transportation out-of-service violations. Furthermore, the spiral wraps used in traditional bundles often trap grit and road salt, which abrade electrical cables over time, forcing costly full-assembly replacements that can exceed $180 per unit.

Philatron’s new solution replaces straight lines with a coiled design engineered to maintain memory retention, ensuring the cables remain suspended above the deck plate even during sharp turns. The assembly utilizes a proprietary material formulation capable of handling temperatures ranging from -85°F to 260°F, preventing the cracking often seen in extreme climates. According to Phil Ramos, Jr., the company's president and CEO, the design is intended to remove the vulnerabilities inherent in standard setups while improving overall fleet uptime and profitability. The product is available for immediate deployment for both large fleets and independent owner-operators.
