Roadside work demands equipment that is bright, clear, dependable, and easy to control when every second matters! That is why TowMate was at the 2026 American Towman Expo in San Antonio with new lighting solutions built for the real conditions towing and recovery operators face every day!
TowMate exhibited at BOOTH #1000, and the team connected with towers, fleet owners, operators, distributors, and industry partners from across the country!
TowMate is bringing new lighting solutions to San Antonio
The San Antonio tow show is a key stop for anyone who works in towing, recovery, roadside service, equipment sales, fleet management, or emergency response support! It brings the industry together in one place, giving professionals a chance to see products up close instead of only reading spec sheets or looking at photos online!
For TowMate, the show is more than a booth on an expo floor! It is a chance to talk directly with the people who rely on warning lights, work lights, wireless tow lights, and traffic control tools in the field!
That kind of feedback matters!
Tow operators know what works! They also know what creates frustration! A light might look good in a catalog, but roadside conditions tell the real story! Rain, snow, heat, dust, traffic, glare, low-light recoveries, and long shifts all test equipment in ways that are hard to capture on paper!
At BOOTH #1000, visitors saw TowMate’s newest products, asked questions, and got a closer look at the lighting features designed to support safer, clearer roadside work!
The 2026 San Antonio Tow Show was also a good setting to compare products side by side! For operators considering a new warning light setup, a fleet upgrade, or a more flexible lighting system, seeing the gear in person can make the buying decision much easier!
The Infinitra Quad-Color Light Bar is built for flexibility
The spotlight product at TowMate’s booth this year is the Infinitra™ Quad-Color Light Bar! This overhead warning light system was engineered for operators who need more than a basic flash pattern!
The Infinitra is a fully programmable, true four-color light bar! That means it gives operators control over the way the light bar looks, acts, and communicates in different roadside situations!
Instead of being locked into a small group of preset options, the system allows users to select:
Pattern
Color
Intensity
Speed
Work light modes
Traffic control patterns
That level of control creates a wide range of possible configurations! For a towing operator, that matters because no two calls are exactly the same!
A disabled vehicle on a quiet shoulder at dusk calls for one kind of visibility! A recovery scene on a busy highway at night may call for something stronger, brighter, and more directional! A tight service call in a parking lot may need work lighting more than warning patterns!
The Infinitra is designed to give operators the ability to match lighting to the job!
True four-color control helps operators adapt on the job
Color plays a major role in how warning lights communicate! Different agencies, applications, and work zones may call for different lighting colors or patterns! Some operators need amber for service and recovery visibility! Others may require red, blue, white, or a combination based on local rules, fleet needs, or specific job conditions!
The Infinitra’s true four-color design gives operators broader control from one system!
That can help reduce the need for separate lighting setups across different vehicles or job types! It also gives fleets more room to adapt equipment for different use cases!
A tow operator might use one configuration while loading a disabled car onto a rollback! That same vehicle might need a different pattern while assisting in traffic, working in a lot, or supporting a more complex recovery scene!
With a programmable light bar, the operator can choose the setup that fits the moment!
This is where the Infinitra stands out! It is not only about brightness! It is about using the right signal at the right time!
Multiple work light modes support real roadside tasks
Warning lights help drivers notice a truck! Work lights help operators see the job!
That difference matters!
At night, on unlit roads, or in poor weather, clear work lighting can make routine tasks easier and safer! Operators may need to inspect a vehicle, connect a winch line, check tie-down points, load a vehicle, clear debris, or walk around a scene without fighting shadows!
The Infinitra includes multiple work light modes, giving operators more lighting options from the same overhead system!
Work light modes can be useful during:
Nighttime recoveries
Vehicle loading and unloading
Roadside equipment checks
Winching and rigging tasks
Parking lot service calls
Low-light inspections
Bad weather responses
A light bar that supports both visibility and task lighting can help simplify the equipment mounted on a truck! Instead of relying only on separate lights in every situation, operators can use the light bar as part of a broader lighting setup!
For fleets, that kind of flexibility can also make training easier! When a lighting system offers clear modes and programmable choices, operators can learn how to use the same platform across different trucks and job types!
Traffic control patterns help communicate clearly
A warning light grabs attention! A traffic control pattern helps guide attention!
That is a meaningful difference for towing and recovery work! When a truck is positioned near moving traffic, lighting should do more than flash! It should help approaching drivers understand where to look and how to move around the work area!
The Infinitra includes traffic control patterns that can support clearer communication on scene!
These patterns can help indicate direction, create a visible flow of movement, and make the truck more noticeable from a distance! That is especially useful when working on shoulders, near lane closures, in dark conditions, or in areas where drivers have very little time to react!
No light bar replaces proper scene safety, training, traffic laws, or situational awareness! Operators still need to follow all applicable rules and best practices for their work area!
But a strong overhead warning system can be an important part of the safety picture!
Programmable settings give operators more control
A programmable light bar is valuable because it lets operators build lighting behavior around real needs!
The Infinitra allows users to select the pattern, color, intensity, and speed! That creates many possible lighting combinations! It also gives operators more control over how noticeable or subtle the light bar should be in a given setting!
For example, a high-intensity, fast pattern may be useful in a high-risk roadside scene where visibility is critical! A lower-intensity setting may be better in a yard, at a shop, or in a location where too much glare could be distracting!
This kind of control helps operators avoid a one-size-fits-all approach!
Different scenes call for different choices!
The goal is simple: give operators the tools to match the situation instead of forcing the situation to fit the tool!
Why seeing the Infinitra in person matters
Lighting products are best understood in person!
Photos can show shape and design! Written descriptions can explain features! Videos can help with patterns and color! But standing near a light bar, seeing the color output, watching the transitions, and asking questions directly can give a much clearer sense of how the product may fit a truck or fleet!
At the San Antonio show, visitors got a close look at how the Infinitra is built and how its features work together!
That includes the qualities operators care about most:
Visibility from practical viewing angles
Pattern clarity
Color separation
Control options
Work light usefulness
Traffic control behavior
Fit for towing and recovery applications
Ease of install
Whether the goal is a single truck upgrade or a larger fleet lighting plan, the booth gives visitors a place to ask specific questions and see the system beyond a product description!
TowMate’s booth was a chance to talk shop
Trade shows are valuable because they keep the conversation grounded in real work!
At BOOTH #1000, TowMate was hearing what operators are seeing in the field! That may include questions about lighting placement, work light needs, warning patterns, vehicle setups, fleet consistency, or how to choose the right system for different types of towing work!
Those conversations help connect product design with daily use!
A light bar may need to serve a rollback one day and a heavy-duty recovery scene the next! A fleet manager may need consistent behavior across multiple units! An owner-operator may want a lighting system that can handle different types of calls without adding unnecessary complexity!
TowMate’s goal at these shows is to share what is new, answer questions, and help visitors understand which lighting options make sense for their needs!
What to look for at the TowMate booth
If the Infinitra is on your must-see list, it helps to think through a few questions before stopping by the booth!
Ask how the light bar fits your daily work! Think about the kinds of calls you handle most often, the environments where visibility is hardest, and the lighting limitations you deal with now!
A few useful questions include:
Which color combinations make sense for my local requirements?
How easy is it to change patterns, speed, intensity, and color?
Which work light modes would help during night calls?
How do the traffic control patterns display from different angles?
How could this setup fit into a fleet with mixed truck types?
What mounting or control options should I think about before installation?
These questions can turn a quick booth visit into a useful product conversation!
