Contact Us Traction – Designed for high-intensity working conditions
Skid steer loaders typically operate frequently in muddy, gravel, construction sites, and complex terrain, placing extremely high demands on the impact resistance and load-bearing capacity of the wheel rims.
The Traction 8.25×16.5 rim uses high-strength steel produced in-house , making it superior to ordinary standard rims in terms of concentricity, fatigue resistance, weld strength, and service life. The high-strength, high-quality steel ensures excellent fatigue and impact resistance, determining the rim's safety ceiling, consistency, and long-term reliability from the outset.
A professional design team has optimized the structural design based on the working conditions of skid steer loaders, which can effectively withstand heavy-load impacts and continuous vibrations, ensuring stable operation of the equipment in harsh environments.
Improve equipment stability and operating efficiency
Traction possesses a mature rim R&D and manufacturing system, equipped with advanced CNC production equipment, automated welding production lines, and high-standard testing systems.
Precision-manufactured rims ensure a better fit between tires and equipment, improving vehicle stability and handling. Traction uses strict dimensional control and advanced manufacturing processes to ensure a precise fit between its 8.25×16.5 rims and Bobcat skid steer loaders, thereby enhancing equipment mobility, traction, and overall operational efficiency.
Exceptional durability and reliability
Bobcat skid steer loaders often require long periods of continuous operation, necessitating wheel rims with exceptional durability. Traction employs mature welding processes and a high-standard quality control system to ensure superior fatigue resistance and long-term stability of the wheel rims, effectively reducing equipment maintenance frequency and downtime.
