Diversified Sales & Marketing
Diversified Sales & Marketing (DSM) announced its newest addition, Green Drain. Green Drain is used in the outlet connections of floor drain bodies or the inside of floor drain strainers to seal the opening to help prevent odors, sewer gases and insects (like drain flies and fruit flies) from entering up through the floor drain. Green Drain’s flexible silicone sealing ribs ensure easy installation into openings that may have variations in size. Green Drain will open to allow drainage and close when there is no water flow. The product can be used in either new construction or as a retrofit. Green Drain is available in 2-, 3-, 3½- and 4-inch sizes.

J.F. Oakes
J.F. Oakes says it has PMPs’ winter solution for compressed air sprayer replacement hoses. The firm’s Chemoak Replacement Hoses are extremely flexible even in the coldest temperatures. Chemoak Replacement Hoses are made from a polyflex hose with polyurethane tube, which is chemical resistant and will last two to three times longer than most compressed air sprayer hoses, the firm says.
J.F. Oakes says Chemoak Replacement Hoses are ½ foot longer than standard replacement hoses, another feature to make your spraying job easier. The hoses have swivels on both ends making them easier to use and they will not kink. They have hose guards on both ends to protect from daily use. Chemoak Replacement Hoses are available in red, green and black and carry a five-year guarantee.

ARE Accessories
ARE Accessories is partnering with Line-X, a retail automotive aftermarket franchise and provider of spray-on bed liners, to offer an elastomeric protective coating option for ARE truck caps and fiberglass tonneau covers. The option is available in two styles: the Overland, featuring a coating and paint design combination for protection of high-stress areas; and the OTR, which completely covers any cap or tonneau cover with Line-X material. These new options are designed to enhance the tough, off-road style of today’s pick-up trucks, ARE says. Line-X, with a pebbled finish and satin sheen, is an impact-, abrasion- and solvent-resistant technology that provides an armor-like layer of protection that can withstand years of wear and tear, the firm said.
ARE offers a wide range of truck cap and tonneau cover styles for Chevy/GMC, Ford, Nissan, RAM and Toyota trucks. ARE backs all of its products with a limited lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship. The Line-X coating is guaranteed to not fade or lose luster for three years.

Xcluder
Xcluder is expanding its line of pest control products with the launch of Night Guard Rodent-Proof Dock Leveler Seals. Designed to protect the small gap around dock levelers that otherwise creates an open invitation for small rodents, Night Guard Seals are constructed with solid steel and a rodent-proof gasket lined with Xcluder fill fabric — a patented combination of stainless steel and poly-fiber that is virtually impenetrable to rats, mice and insects, the firm says. Night Guard Seals are placed on either side of the leveler when it is not in use. When the leveler is in use, Xcluder Night Guard is stored away easily on wall-mounted brackets.
Rodents can enter a building through an opening as small as ¼-inch, which makes the tiny gap surrounding an unprotected loading dock door an easy target for these tenacious pests, the firm says. Xcluder’s sharp, coarse fibers create a solid barrier against rats and mice, and its combination of stainless steel and poly-fiber will not rust or degrade over time, Xcluder adds.
