Hauling placarded freight means the placards have to be up, square and readable every single time, and a corroded, bent or missing holder is what turns a routine roadside inspection into a violation. This aluminum placard holder distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires mounts to the trailer, tank or truck body and holds the DOT placard where an inspector expects to find it. We stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, tank and trailer repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.
Compliance That Stays Readable: The Aluminum Placard Holder Advantage
The holder is built from aluminum with a white plated finish. Aluminum is the right material for a part that lives permanently outside on a trailer, because it will not rust the way a plated steel bracket does once the coating gets chipped during a placard change, and the white finish keeps the frame from disappearing into a dark trailer wall. Placards get swapped every time the load changes, so the holder gets handled far more often than most trailer hardware - and a frame that has corroded stiff is a frame that gets fought with in the dark at five in the morning. The holder is not the consumable here, the placard is: a frame that stays straight and clean means the only thing changing at the dock is the placard sliding in and out.
Built by Automann to Fleet Standard specifications, it is a direct replacement for the highly searched industry numbers Labelmaster 80SMW, Labelmaster 80SMW97 and Sirco SP2001. Order them in sets so every placard position on the unit carries the same holder.
