Not convinced Trojan Soft Core is the right product for you? Here is one application example from an underground mine:

Application Type
Underground Potash Mine ‐ Canada.

Machine Type
Scoop/Loader LHD (4 yd.).

Tire Size & Type
17.5R25 (14.00) Radial Tire.

Site Conditions
Smooth compacted graded ground, machines travel long distances at high speeds.

Tire Problem
Scoop utilized as a load-and-carry vehicle. Tram distances up to 15 miles (25 km). Tram speeds up to 9 mph (15 km/h). Solid tires and polyurethane (foam) filled tires were not able to withstand the heat generated by the long runs and high speeds. Solid Tires would de‐laminate and polyurethane fill would revert to liquid. These tire problems had a significant impact on mine production and tire cost per hour.

Trojan Solution
Installed Trojan SO Soft Core in the 17.5R25 radial tire.

Success / Outcome
Trojan SO Soft Core has made it possible for the mine to wear out their tires and reuse the Soft Core. The combination of tire wear‐out, Trojan Soft Core reuse and longer running hours has sharply decreased the mine’s tire and labour costs as well as significantly increased production. Trojan Soft Core has allowed the mine to achieve by far its lowest cost per hour versus any competing product.
