Innovation drives the design and performance of our precision engineered Specialised Tools for OTR and LME trye management💡🚀

More than just ideas!
Our 35+ precision engineered Specialised Tools for OTR and LME tyre management are designed by expert teams to solve real-world problems and help clients move more with less.

Innovation In Action - Tyre Spikes🚀
Suitable for large earthmover tyres up to 63" - the unique threaded design of our Tyre Spikes provides a safe method for removing spikes from tyres after deflation is complete.

▶️ Take a look at the video animation below or visit our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBQQnsGDNz4

Conventional Tyre Spikes rely on anchors and slings to be removed from the tyre with the help of mobile equipment such as forklifts. This approach has potential for an energy release which poses risks to operators and equipment.

Designed by Senior Project Engineer Walter Frate and his expert team, Otraco's threaded design helps reduce the risk by allowing Tyre Spikes to be simply unscrewed from the tyre with a standard 3/4" impact gun👍

"Our Tyre Spikes are part of our Specialised Tooling range which is developed from our Engineering Design Process to ensure that we deliver innovative, precision engineered tools that can be relied upon in mining operations worldwide." Walter Frate

🦺 Delivering improved safety and cost savings for tyre bay operations
