Sloan heavy-duty Pogo Stick

Jun 1, 2012

Gear Guide

Sloan Transportation Products’ redesigned 45-inch heavy-duty Pogo Stick for routing wires and hoses in over-the-road vehicles features a thicker-gauge, heavy-duty spring and offers a life cycle three times longer than the previous design, the company says.

It is available in the choice of a chrome or zinc-plated dichromate steel support arm. Additionally, the base is more than three times larger, and the new 3.75-inch-diameter housing eliminates spring binding and provides increased resistance to sagging and bending. The tool also features 360-degree rotation, a swivel arm that pivots at the base, a forged steel mounting stud and improved packaging. It is for use with all nylon and rubber air-brake hoses, and the eyebolt and nut is included.
