Low Profile Arrow Board Skids

WSSP

W|ECO Low Profile Arrow Board Skids are full-size arrow boards on a frame that fits under a folding attenuator on a truck bed or trailer. The arrow board frame pivots the display panel up to the vertical position when deployed, and down to horizontal for transport. The low height of the transport position allows equipment such as an attenuator to be temporarily stowed above the arrow board. All Wanco Skid-Mounted Arrow Boards are self-powered, requiring no wiring to an external power supply. The control panel may be installed inside the truck cab or outside on the skid frame.

Eco-friendly

W|ECO arrow boards use Wanco’s high-efficiency LED lights and sealed batteries. Exclusive to Wanco, each LED consumes 85% less power than those used on traditional arrow boards. As a result, W|ECO arrow boards use fewer, smaller batteries than traditional arrow boards.

Smaller and fewer batteries results in greatly reduced lead content — 80% less, when compared to traditional arrow board batteries. Additionally, W|ECO batteries are fully sealed and will not leak or spill. Because they require no maintenance, W|ECO batteries last longer with fewer replacements.

During the manufacturing process, Wanco products are powder coated, not painted. Powder coating emits near-zero volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and nearly all over-spray is reclaimed and reused.

Finally, when a W|ECO arrow board reaches the end of its useful life — usually because of a collision (we have never seen one wear out) — nearly every component can be recycled.

Wanco Arrow Boards set the highest standards of quality and performance in the industry.
