Husky Corporation introduces newly designed StreamShaper 

Nov 25, 2024

Husky Corporation has unveiled the latest innovation in fueling technology with its newly designed StreamShaper for ultra high-flow applications. Building on the success of its previous StreamShaper technology, which minimized early shutoffs and splash-back spills for standard nozzles, Husky’s updated StreamShaper now enhances refueling experiences for vehicles requiring ultra-high-flow rates of 25 gallons per minute or more.

In demanding fueling scenarios such as heavy-duty commercial trucks, industrial machinery, agriculture equipment, and high-capacity fuel tanks, delays from premature shutoffs, splash-backs, or spills can impact productivity and cause customer frustration. The StreamShaper solves these issues by utilizing laminar flow technology to create a smooth, compact fuel flow, minimizing splash-backs and allowing for a faster, uninterrupted fueling process.

Delivering a Better Fueling Experience

“Our newly designed StreamShaper is tailored to meet the unique needs of today’s high-capacity vehicles across various sectors,” Paul Nilsen, Husky Corporation Technical Service Engineer. “This technology applies laminar flow principles to ensure a consistent, direct fuel flow. By eliminating turbulence and crosscurrents in the fuel line, it reduces early shutoffs and splash-back incidents, ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction.”

Husky’s StreamShaper has been specially designed to manage the unique fuel flow demands of over-the-road trucks, construction vehicles, and high-flow fueling stations. Unlike traditional nozzles with turbulent or obstructed flow, the StreamShaper keeps fuel moving in a clean, parallel pattern, significantly reducing foaming, early shutoffs, and spills. This improvement is particularly beneficial in applications with bendy or convoluted fuel pipes common in today’s modern vehicles, allowing for smoother and more efficient fueling.

Husky Corporation’s commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction remains strong as the company continues to design products that address industry challenges.
