Semi Trucks require specialized techniques when it comes to auto glass repair. Their sheer size means that they cannot be taken to just any old glass repair shop. When it comes to auto glass repair, due to the standardization of safety glass and windshield construction basic techniques do not vary drastically. The devil, as they say, is in the details. Semi-trucks are one of the largest commercial vehicles on the road. Whether you are an Owner Operator or a trucking company, the ability of the driver to operate the vehicle without visual impairment is vital.
Repairs to chips or cracks must be addressed promptly to avoid any potential safety issues caused by a damaged windshield. This also saves money, as often glass damage can start out minor and can be easily contained. Any effected area smaller than a quarter and that does not obscure the driver’s field of vision can be repaired by vacuuming out any trapped air and with proper application of an epoxy formulated specifically to repair windshields.
It is important to find an auto glass repair shop with the right equipment to handle not only the proper repair for the windshield, but that is also equipped to accommodate the size of a tractor trailer. Some glass repairs services even offer mobile repair and replacement, even for semi-trucks. This could be especially beneficial as it can save both time and money to have a mobile unit meet your vehicle wherever is more convenient, without delaying operations.
