Expanding on its Brawler HPS (High Performance Solid) tyre range, Trelleborg Wheel Systems have opted for a Comfort line, which offers engineered tyres to reduce vibration, compact wheel loaders in waste and recycling applications and enhanced driving experience for telehandlers.
A Tyre for Demanding Situations
Alessio Bucci, Product Marketing Senior Manager at Trelleborg Wheel Systems, says of this new line of solid tyres designed for demanding environments: “Waste and recycling applications are extremely demanding on tires, which are at risk of being damaged or punctured during operations. Standard solid tires give increased safety and require zero maintenance, but this often comes at the expense of operator comfort. Now, with the introduction of Trelleborg’s Comfort line for telehandlers and compact wheel loaders, drivers will experience a softer ride thanks to increased shock absorption and reduced vibration.”
Featuring a wide footprint, Trelleborg’s Comfort line tyres provide better traction compared to standard solid tires. The wide, flat tread design affords excellent stability and extended operating hours, while a deep lug tread design gives three times more wear than a pneumatic tire.
“At Trelleborg, we believe that driver comfort is essential to productivity. After receiving a very positive market response to our Brawler 25-inch HPS Soft Ride line, we decided to extend the concept to our smaller 24-inch range of HPS tires for telehandlers and compact wheel loaders,” adds Bucci, expanding on the inspiration for the range.
Tire sizes available are: 43×15-24; 47×17-24; 13.00-24; 14.00-24.
