HD+ the strong system
Strong machines will require a strong clamp. We offer you more
than double the strength compared with different systems.
A symbolic “test” – just one single capnut is holding a tractor
having a weight of 11.7 t.
The capnut is just strained at 68 % of its capacity.

MD+/HD+
Details
•MD+ and HD+ the patented clamping systems.
•MD+ and HD+ dual wheels will fit in any position.
•Hinging of the clamps at the spacer band will fix the wheel quickly and safely!
• The calibrated spacer band will uniformly transmit the force onto the rim ring.
• The clamp may be readjusted while it is in the hinged position.
•MD+ and HD+ clamps can be used up to a motion angle* of 28°.

Our special services:
•Rim flange reinforcement – e.g. for forestry tractors and liquid manure tanks
•Pitch circle reinforcement – e.g. for heavy-load harvesters and liquid manure tanks
•Additional pitch circles – e.g. for fitting dual wheels or the installation of wheel sensors
•Additional valves – e.g. to adjust the air pressure of large-volume tyres
• Valve protection – e.g. for forestry tractors and construction machinery
Achieving optimum results will just be possible if the material required for the work is optimum as well.
Due to several special services offered by us our wheels are real high-end products.

When should the tractor be equipped with some
additional weights?
The tractor will require some additional weights only
if high tractive forces are to be transmitted.
For any other work the weights should be removed.
Especially as concerns transporters, the additional
weights will cause an increased fuel consumption!
