SKID STEER TIRE STUDS | ETERRA

Description

Eterra Skid Steer Tire Studs for Rubber Tires and Tracks.

Installation

• Use a low torque driver at fairly slow speed
• Screw the stud in until the washer (underside) makes contact with the rubber visually
• Go no more that 1/2 turn past that point.
• We recommend using 30mm or 1" studs for skid steer or compact loader installations because of the amount of tearing action the machines can produce when turning. It is your responsibility to measure and order the correct length to insure they cannot pull out. It they are too short, they will pull out.

Basic Installation Rules

Never fit a stud that is too long for the tread depth, i.e. an 18 mm stud requires a 17 mm tread depth. 3 mm of the stud should be raised above the tire surface, which gives a margin of 2 mm down to the cord. The thickness of the cord varies between 4 and 20 mm depending on the tire type. 
To achieve optimal results, count the number of contact patches on the tire and make a strategy for fitting the studs.
