Erlau Tire Protection Chains for the Most Demanding Environments - protecting tires from damage

Founded in 1828, Erlau, the inventor of the tire protection chain (TPC) is the world's leading manufacturer of tire protection chains. Erlau, under the banner RUD-Erlau, is renowned for its expertise and state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities. Erlau’s tire protection chains are found in leading mines and quarries across the globe.

Erlau’s extensive experience and product range ensures that they can deliver a tire protection/traction chain solution which is tailored to suit the harsh conditions the equipment is working in. Erlau tire chains protect the tread and sidewalls of the tires, preventing equipment downtime and loss of productivity.

The Granit Plus X22, Erlau’s most prominent tire protection chain product, is the heaviest chain for its size on the market with the ability to be fitted on the largest tires in the industry. The Granit Plus delivers outstanding results in tough and highly abrasive hard-rock applications; the LINK-RING design of the Granit Plus allows it to stand up to even the harshest environment.

Underground mining is one of the most demanding environments - for men and machines. Erlau’s traction chains play a key role in low-profile loaders and halers on the straight and narrow roadways; in particular the newly introduced type TORO has been designed to give 30 % longer service life.

Many of the designs in common use today were first developed and patented by RUD-Erlau. Today the company has sales representatives and distributors in over 120 countries, and over 500 patents globally, which document RUD's leadership in the industry and innovative approach.
