BARTLETT RATING REPORT
Coming soon
BARTLETT RATING PLATE
Bartlett Data – Towbar limits graphed Bartlett untangles the often complex task of understanding and applying safe towbar loading capacities by laying them out in easy to reference graphs. When you receive a Bartlett towbar rating plate, a report is included that displays the towing capacities of your vehicle. Values such as Aggregate Trailer Mass (ATM), Gross Trailer Mass (GTM), Static Vertical Load (SVL) and others are arranged in bar graphs to simulate various potential combinations with mass values shown proportionally to the actual towing capacities.
Quickly and easily understanding your vehicle’s towing capacities
Fleet managers and vehicle operators can quickly and safely review the Bartlett Data graphs as they plan their loads day in day out – real understanding and real control. • Streamline the decision making process • Truck and Trailer load distribution immediately becomes a safer process • Understand the potential of each vehicle in the fleet • Convert entire fleets for one source of truth
