RSS5058 BLS Enterprises is promoting its full range of Tufpads polyurethane track pads for pavers and asphalt milling machines, including the European introduction of its W series.

W series pads can be used as a direct replacement for 2395 Wirtgen’s EPS system.

Polyurethane lasts two or three times longer than rubber, said president Barry Stoughton. The Tufpads system is available in both one-piece and two-piece versions. The one-piece pads are bonded to the metal, while pads in the two-piece system are bolted on. This enables them to be replaced, making the design ideal for heavy-duty applications such as milling that require regular pad replacements.

The engine is said to deliver a 20% fuel efficiency benefit compared to the 988H, thanks in part to an ECO mode with on-demand throttle, auto idle and engine idle kickdown/auto resume system. The 50tonne machine moves away from its predecessor’s monoboom loader arm design in favour of a Z-bar linkage.
