Why polyurethane?

Polyurethane performs well where resistance to the effects of abrasion, stretching, cutting, tearing, compression and torsional forces are involved. It is lightweight, load bearing, easy to handle and can be formulated to work in both wet and dry conditions. Polyurethane also has the ability to last eight to 10 times longer than rubber, in certain applications.

Cast polyurethane is a cost-effective, dependable type of elastomer that combines the performance advantages of high-tech plastics, metals and ceramics with the resiliency and flexibility of rubber.

The newest product offering in 2021 is the OTR sidewall protector. After more than a year of rigorous testing and performance analysis in the field, Argonics engineered the OTR with even more strength to handle aggressive applications.

The OTR is unlike any other tire protection system on the market. The modular system makes replacing a damaged part much more cost effective than the competitors’ one-piece design. The OTR sidewall protector safeguards tires from puncture and severe damage. Designed as a sacrificial product, it helps to maximize your equipment investments and reduce time and money spent on repairs.

Once a certified technician installs the engineered mounting flange, installing the panels takes as little as 15 minutes. There is virtually no maintenance needed after installation, other than to re-torque the bolts after 15 to 20 hours of use – comparable to installing new tires on a car.

Whether you’re producing concrete, manufacturing aggregate products, or mining precious metal, Argonics has the solution for you. With more than 25 years of solving tough wear problems, Argonics provides an invaluable advantage for your next application.
