TULARE, Calif., Oct. 20, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EZ Connector Inc. , developer and manufacturer of high-performance products for improving the reliability of electrical trailer connections, today announced that the company has been awarded a contract from the United States General Services Administration (GSA) to sell several of its electrical connection systems through GSA's Advantage(r) Program. Under the terms of its contract (GSA Contract Number GS-30F-0025U), government agencies will be able to easily purchase 11 of EZ Connector's products.
"Securing a GSA contract is significant since it will make it easier and faster for government clients to source and purchase EZ Connector's line-up of products, which provide the highest levels of safety and simplicity for towing equipment and other implements," said Joe Cardoza, President of EZ Connector. "This contract award underscores our commitment to further strengthening our sales efforts targeted toward the government channel, especially for military and federal fleet applications."
The GSA contract award provides a streamlined vehicle for the acquisition and installation process for federal, state and local agencies to purchase EZ Connector's family of products. This contract enables government customers to obtain special and approved pricing and license terms from a verified and trusted vendor.
EZ Connector's electrical connection systems are ideal for military and fleet towing applications. The company's products use fail-proof, spring-loaded face-to-face brass contacts. There are no parts to bend or break, and the waterproof design of the plugs keep moisture and contaminants out, eliminating corrosion, creating unsurpassed reliability and safety. EZ Connector's electrical plug can be connected in zero visibility conditions as its magnets pull the unit together, and with a slight twist, the pins align themselves and the plug is connected and sealed. Then the vehicle and trailer can be driven through the most extreme terrain, while electrical signals pass unimpeded through the clean, dry connection within the plug.
