Description
- METROLOAD Fibre Reinforced Load Bearing Pads are a sheet product created using 100% recycled high-quality tyres.
- The result Is an environmentally friendly product that is also economically viable.
- The rubber has increased internal strength due to the inclusion of internal fibre reinforcements dispersed throughout the material.
- Its strength and versatility make it a common product for machinery, buildings, prestress concrete bridges and equipment foundations.
USES:
- Bearing pads are versatile and can be used in such applications as vibration isolation railway tie pads, handrail bearing pads and is commonly used in bride bearing masonry.
MATERIAL COMPOSITION:
- METROLOAD is made stronger with the inclusion of interior fibre reinforcements that can be found dispersed throughout the material.
- This unique process enhances the properties of the material.
- This includes tear resistance, durability, superior weather and ozone resistance as well as tensile and compression strength.
