Lower Unit Ground Pressure: The large ground contact area of TERRA-TIRE floatation tires effectively distributes load over a relatively broad area, providing a reduction in unit ground pressure in comparison with conventional tires.

Reduced Rolling Resistance:  Large ground contact area, flexibility of carcass, and low inflation pressure work together to reduce rolling resistance.

 

Improved Shok Absorption:  The carcass of a TERRA-TIRE is very flexible.  This design characteristic, coupled with low inflation pressures, provides for high level energy absorption.  The resulting air-cushion effect means less wear on equipment, reduced fatigue for the operator.

Cost-Saving Replacement of Duals:  One TERRA-TIRE does the work of two conventional tires.  The weith of a TERRA-TIRE and rim is less than the weight of the dual wheels and tires it replaces.  In addition to this net weight saving, thest tires provide improved flotation, yet service and maintenance costs are generally lower.

Increased Pay Load To Vehicle Weight:  The enveloping an cushioning effect of the TERRA-TIRE permits bothe a strength and a weight reduction in vehicle design.  Teh net result in designing  vehicle for a given load capacity is an effective increase in the ration of pay load to vehicle weight.

Conventional Service and Repair:  In spite of the advantages to be realized in the use of TERRA-TIRE, low pressure, low profile tires, this unusual tire requires nothing unusual in the way of service or repair.  Conventional maintenance methods are totally applicable.
