Arnco Ecofil: Ken Jones Tire is pleased to announce a brand new line of tire flat proofing material manufactured by
Arnco. This revolutionary type of tire foam fill was designed with as much concern about the environment as for your equipment, operators and your bottom line. The result? An exciting new 100% flatproofing formula called
Ecofil. This new line of flatproofing fill is largely derived from natural, earthly, renewable resources and requires
50% less oil than traditional tire fills. Oil has always been one of the main components in the manufacturing of tire fill. If the price of oil goes up so does the cost of the tire fill. So, using less oil not only helps conserve a valuable natural resource, it also helps protect our customers against rising prices. And, of course, genuine Arnco flatproofing provides greater cost savings by eliminating tire repair costs, lost wages and productivity due to down time.
Ecoflex: Ecofil is currently manufactured in three different grades/formulas to meet particular load, ride and traction needs. At Ken Jones Tire we always strive to give our customers premium products with exceptional value and that is why Ken Jones Tire uses
Ecoflex Ecofil flatproofing. Compared to the standard tire foam fills on the market, Ecoflex is much softer and provides an air-like ride. A softer, air-like ride means less axle stress, less bent wheels, less jolts and vibrations, longer tire wear and a broader footprint for increased traction. Other benefits include constant tire pressure for life of tire, extra ballast for improved stability and elimination of blow out hazards. It is the ideal tire flatproofing solution for lawn tractors, skids steers, golf course equipment, farm tractors, backhoes, trenchers, utility vehicles and construction equipment. Major OEM's such as Mustang and Gehl have approved Ecoflex for the use on their machines. Eliminate 100% of flat tires with
Ecoflex....Just Fill It and Forget It !
What is the Ecoflex process ? Pumped into the tire through its valves stem, Arnco's liquid flatproofing polymer replaces all of the air and cures to a resilient rubber-like core in 24-48 hours. All foam filling is done at our place of business. The process includes 1) Inspecting your tire and wheel for defects. 2) Prestretching the carcass overnight. 3) Pumping the tire fill into the tire at the correct temperature. 4) Pressurizing the tire to the recommended inflation pressure. 5) Curing at the proper time and temperature to insure optimum filled tire performance.
