Wind turbines are an excellent and environmentally friendly way to generate energy. Using wind—one of Earth’s natural resources—to generate power is a cheap and effective way to meet energy needs. If you ever wondered how wind turbines generate electricity, then watch this video for some interesting facts. You’ll learn how the kinetic energy in wind is turned to mechanical energy in the turbines. The turbines then connect to the main shaft, which runs a generator. Inside the generator are loops of copper wire, which help create electrical energy.
To learn more details about how energy is created with wind turbines, watch this video.
If you’re looking for industrial power cables and wires for your wind turbines, then Philatron International can satisfy all your business’ custom cord needs. Browse through our website or call an expert sales representative to learn more about our high quality, 100% American-made products.

California High Speed Trains: Business
President Obama proposed an ambitious plan to build high-speed rail across America. California is one of many states that could reap the benefits of high-speed rail. Tracks connecting San Francisco and Los Angeles can decrease commute times and dramatically reduce road congestion. For information on all of the business benefits of high-speed trains in California, take a look at this informative video.
At Philatron International, we offer materials that will help build the high-speed rail of the future, from custom cords to bulk wire and cable. We manufacture all our products in the USA—never outsourcing to other countries. We’re passionate about keeping jobs in America and contributing our decades of expertise to the high-speed rail project.

High-speed rail is a type of passenger rail transportation that travels significantly faster than normal rail traffic. Trains are known to be comfortable, scenic, and easy to use, but travel time can be excessive, especially when traveling long distances. Trip times can be dramatically reduced with high-speed rail and bullet trains that reach and exceed 150 mph.
High-speed rails are also environmentally friendly and their construction would create thousands of jobs within the United States—especially in the production of materials like custom cords and wires. With all of these benefits, you might wonder when high-speed rail will come to your town.
Here’s some information on the future of high-speed rail:
- China is one of the world leaders in high-speed rail with over 8,000 km of high-speed rail. China has ambitious plans for the future; they invested more than $300 billion to build more than 16,000 miles of high-speed tracks by 2020.
- High-speed rail is expected to compete with air travel and significantly reduce congestion on the roads and carbon emissions. In addition High-speed rail is a viable green transportation solution.
- In the United States, President Obama proposed an ambitious high-speed rail plan, requesting $53 billion to fund the project. Obama hopes to modernize America’s rail system and connect major metropolitan areas—like San Francisco and Los Angeles—through high-speed rail.
- Other countries have equally visionary agendas. In France, the TGV already allows for speedy travel through the country. Japan’s shinkansen, or bullet train, is a safe, reliable network of high-speed railway lines that continues to expand and improve since its creation in 1964.
High-speed rail is a big investment, but one with even bigger returns. High-speed rail will eventually be an everyday part of our lives; it’s only a question of when.
High-speed rail requires different materials and standards than traditional rail travel, from custom cords to industrial power cables. If your company is involved with the construction of high-speed rail tracks, then contact Philatron International for all your bulk wire and cable needs. At Philatron International, we are proud to manufacture and sell 100% American-made products and contribute to the growth of America’s industry.

Philatron International is a leading industrial wire and power cable provider, committed to keeping and creating jobs in America. With over 35 years of experience, we can help you with all of your wiring and heavy-duty trucking needs. One of the many high-performance, high-quality products Philatron carries is the Stallion Power brand Coiled Air Hoses and Electrical Cables.
Stallion Power Coiled Air Hoses provide a superior alternative to nylon brands. Here are a few of the many qualities that separate Stallion Power products from its competition:
- Stallion Power Coiled Air Hoses can withstand harsh weather conditions without breaking or kinking. No kinks mean no dangerous air blockage, making Stallion Power lines much safer. These hoses can function properly at extreme temperatures from -70°F to +220°F.
- These Air Hoses have superior coiling memory, jacketing, and durability and will not break down in the roughest of conditions. Unlike the Stallion Power brand, many nylon brands quickly wear out. When subjected to a high speed flexing test, Stallion Power lines lasted for over one million cycles. Superior durability provides more reliable equipment and prolonged service.
- Manufactured in the USA, Stallion Power products are engineered with rigorous road conditions in mind and meet all the requirements of the U.S. Department of Transportation. Moreover, if you buy Stallion Power, then you have a superior product and peace of mind knowing you’ve kept business and employment in America.
- These products come with a three-year warranty and often last much longer. Most nylon brands will only last one year before they need replacement, so you get an excellent return on investment.
Philatron International is one of the country’s leading suppliers of the Stallion Power brand Coiled Air Hoses and Electrical Cables. Suppliers, Fleets and Owner Operators all trust Philatron International for their heavy duty trucking needs. Contact our experienced sales representatives today.
