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 Wirtgen’s EPS system. Polyurethane lasts two or three times longer than rubber, said president Barry Stoughton.

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 four cylinder (EW140D) and six cylinder engines produce high torque at low engine speeds, said Volvo, giving rise to low fuel consumption.
