Felasto Pur, a German company, specialises in the manufacturing of durable plastic tracks for various machines.
Steel band tracks have been part of logging for many years. Steel tracks are strong and associated with good tyre protection, increased traction and improved flotation. However, they are heavy and difficult to fit. An alternative in certain applications is the use of a plastic track such as the Felastec crawler track or Raup-F track for logging machines. The track links can also be fitted with steel claws to improve traction. These tracks have the following advantages:/Felasto platic tracks logging traction.jpg)
- Less tyre wear and lower axle loads due to the elastic properties of the track
- Reduced noise
- Less vibration
- Low ground pressure
- Less surface damage
- Easy to fit
- Long life due to the wear-resistant segments and robust connecting links
- Individual segments are easy to replace
- Less weight
