Description Trelleborg Twin Forestry T480 LS-2
The Trelleborg Twin Forestry T480 LS-2 tire is specifically designed for forestry equipment, primarily for forwarders and machines that operate with high loads in rugged terrain. In the Forestry range, this model occupies a niche for heavy-duty solutions and intensive work cycles.
Design Features
The tire's tread is designed according to the LS-2 scheme and optimized for use in a dual configuration. Large, evenly distributed blocks form a stable contact patch and provide high traction on wet and loose surfaces. Unlike single tires in the series, the tread pattern is designed to work in pairs, which improves directional stability and reduces the risk of skidding when driving with a load. The open structure of the grooves promotes effective self-cleaning from dirt, snow, and wood debris.
The tire's design is focused on maximum strength and resistance to mechanical stress. The reinforced carcass and sidewalls increase resistance to cuts, punctures, and deformations when in contact with rocks, stumps, and sharp branches. Compared to other models, this tire has a reinforced structure adapted specifically for dual mounting and high axle loads characteristic of high-capacity forwarders.
The rubber compound is developed with consideration for forest operating conditions. It is resistant to abrasive wear, maintains elasticity at low temperatures, and withstands prolonged operation without loss of performance properties. The optimized profile reduces pressure on the ground, helping to reduce rutting and preserve the structure of the forest soil.
