Eaton's VORAD Collision Warning System is the most advanced accident avoidance system ever developed. In addition to being successfully used in the commercial trucking industry, the United States military, local governmental units and even in the recreational vehicle market are benefiting from VORAD.
Diagnosing and Fixing Powertrain Issues Faster
With diagnostic tools and solutions for the PC, handheld device and PDA, Eaton MD® allows service technicians to choose the platform that is right for their shop. In addition to efficiency, Eaton MD Mobile Diagnostics reduce the number of diagnostic tools needed and minimize the time needed to perform service diagnostics.
Reliable, Low-Maintenance Clutches
Manufactured and marketed globally, Eaton and Fuller Clutches are the No. 1 clutch in North America, serving Class 6, 7 and 8 markets. The Fuller Solo® Clutch is the industry's first adjustment-free clutch. Count on it for the longest life of any heavy-duty clutch.
Delivering long-term value to customers and the environment
