Titan Tyres Australia’s Low Sidewall Technology (LSW) helps equipment operators unlock greater productivity while taking on some of the toughest jobs in the world.
LSW, a hybrid of Titan’s wheel and tire technologies, features a larger rim diameter and a smaller sidewall than a standard tire.
This significantly reduces power hop, road lope and soil compaction, which improves equipment safety and performance.
It also pairs well with equipment in several rugged applications, including agriculture, construction and mining.
Conventional wheel assemblies lag behind when it comes to supporting the growing size and horsepower of today's ag equipment.
This leaves growers with a tough decision; either purchase an expensive tracked machine or compromise on equipment performance.
LSW technology, on the other hand, costs less than tracked alternatives and offers better performance than conventional wheels.
Its compact sidewall dampens the swaying motion while travelling at high speeds and eliminates power hopping in high-drawbar applications.
It also allows for carrying weight at 40 percent lower inflation pressures than a standard competitive tire, reducing soil compaction significantly.
Because every grower has different needs, Titan offer LSW wheels and tires for a variety of equipment, including combines, tractors, grain carts and field sprayers.
According to a company spokesman, Titan literally reinvented the wheel for agriculture, construction and mining applications.
It certainly did not happen overnight.
Bringing LSW technology to the market required several years of research and testing.
Those years of hard work seem to have paid off.
As part of the Titan International Group of companies, Titan Australia is a leader in the design, development and sales of the toughest and most durable wheels, undercarriages, axles and tyres for agriculture.
