Compressed air, AC power — from underdeck
Save weight, space, and money with Vanair's patented Genair. This underdeck unit combines the power of a 125- to 185-cfm air compressor with the convenience of a patented, integral 7.2- to 10.5-kw AC generator.
The Genair system maximizes the power of a truck's engine by enabling the user to access both pneumatic and electric power via the PTO drive. Genair can readily handle plastic pipe fusion, TV pipeline inspection, and other onboard air compressor/AC electric power demands.

Cushion Coupler soaks up towing's bumps
The CC1 Cushion Coupler absorbs up to 59% of the bumps and jolts that occur in towing, and it can be swapped with the coupler on an existing gooseneck.
This maintenance-free coupler costs hundreds less than air-bag-style couplers. The smooth ride comes from a patented system that uses Timbren cushions combined with other proprietary shock-dampening technology.
With a gross trailer weight rating of 24,000 pounds, the coupler comes in either 4,000 or 8,000 pounds maximum tongue weight. It fits standard 4"-ID round gooseneck coupler tubes. The self-latching cast coupler has a handy hitching guide and is V-19-rated at 28,000 pounds. It latches when the trailer is lowered onto the ball and releases remotely.
