 TRIOFill is a green option for tyre filling |
German tyre filling company Zeus has developed a new environmentally friendly OTR flat-proofing solution for the front-end loader and articulated dump truck (ADT) market.
The TRIOFill can enhance the life span of tyres by preventing punctures and blowouts. It is a flat- proofing solution based on a '3-Component (PUR) Structure' of two liquid polyurethanes and one of granulated rubber.
Martin Roesler, managing director of Zeus Tyre Filling Systems, says the new offering is a greener, cleaner and more cost-efficient option.
The product combined with its pumping system employs an electrically driven tyre-filling pump, which is quiet, easy and quick to clean. Roesler says it is more environmentally friendly and faster by over 10 litres/minute than traditional pumping systems.
He says the benefits of TRIOFill will be attractive to front-end loader and ADT owners and end-users operating in hazardous, abrasive mining and construction sites. "The benefits of TRIOFill are an important issue where plant downtime due to tyre damage, blow-outs and punctures severely hampers site operating schedules and drastically escalates plant operational costs."
The product provides sidewall-to-sidewall tyre protection from external penetration and 100% elimination of all flats, punctures and blowouts. According to Zeus, TRIOFill also eliminates leaking valves, vehicle instability problems and under-inflated tyres, which can contribute to poor tyre performance, unnecessary tyre wear, low grip and wheel slippage.
TRIOFill can be used across a wide range of tyre types, sizes, applications and environments from trailer and trolley carts, to forklifts and up to large earthmoving tyres.
