Bridgestone Paver Tracks – Design & Construction
Guide Lug
An extreme, high density, anti-gouge Guide Lug Rubber Compound has been utilized which will allow the guide lug to remain steadfast to the main body of the track, even in paving work that includes frequent turns.
Reinforced Roller Path
For longer life Bridgestone engineers focused on maximizing track life by minimizing roller path wear. Bridgestone’s global R&D Group was utilized to formulate a rubber compound which has created an industry benchmark.
Main Carcass
The construction of the main carcass, which contains multiple layers of steel cords, provides superior torsional and transverse strength during operation.
Paver Tread Pattern
Incorporates a high tread to void ratio for a smooth ride and extended service life. The wide tread bar provides excellent weight distribution and low ground pressure, so as not to leave an imprint in new asphalt.
The tread design also has gripping edges for consistant traction on soft sub-base conditions.
Tread Chamfers
For ease of turning and decreased sub-base mater.
