The highway struggle
Why temporary hacks fail
Every trucker knows flickering trailer lights. Makeshift fixes cost time, money, and CSA risk.
Spreading pins with screwdrivers
Prying brass split-pins weakens contact points until terminals snap off.
Damages $50+ sockets

Invented by driver Robert Patterson (32 years driving)
“I got tired of stopping on the highway to adjust wiggling pigtails or using plastic trailer seals and paperclips. I designed the Pigtail Wedge so drivers can roll with confidence that trailer lights stay lit.”

FAQ
Got questions?
Will it fit my tractor’s 7-way socket?
Yes. The tapered design pushes into the receiver gap as far as needed across standard commercial 7-way sockets.
Is this DOT inspection compliant?
DOT expects trailer lights to function without dropouts. The Wedge helps keep a continuous connection so lights stay lit.
Where do you ship?
Fast US ground delivery. Free shipping when you order 2 or more.
Will winter freeze crack the wedge?
No. It’s molded from a proprietary synthetic rubber blend made for all-season extremes.
Don’t get caught with flickering lights
Hit the road with lights that stay lit
One wedge. Ten seconds. Fewer roadside light checks.
