Where would I track down a few of those metal edge protectors I see guys use on coils? I've never seen them in the truck stops (and I'm sure I wouldn't want to pay the markup on them). I'm no flatbed rookie but the company I run with the past few years didn't run chains, so I've been getting coil supplies as I go the past couple months and those corners are the only things left on my list (i think)
If you ever get by any of the Iowa80 truckstops, they have them. (Joplin MO, Kenly NC and Walcott IA)
Add the chrome shop/blue beacon (x159 across from the Petro) in Effingham to the list of places that carry them.
Almost any tarp shop or trailer dealer that sell flat beds usually is the cheapest place to find them and buy.
Pretty much any tarp shop, and a lot of trailer repair shops cover them. Chain guards are usually what I hear them called, but some call them steel edge protectors. If all you're doing is coils then you might want to look into a coil chain guard. You'll have a lot less trouble with them sliding around and falling off as you ratchet your binders.
Chain guards is what I've heard them called as well. Iowa80 will over charge you for them like everything else.
Coil Cuffs may be what you're after. They make chaining heavy coils a lot easier, more chains in a smaller area, than corner protectors.
