Roadtec Inc., manufacturer of equipment for the roadbuilding industry, has announced it will offer the new BLS Poly Bolt-On Tufpads track pads as an option on its new RX-900 milling machine. The new piece of equipment was introduced at World of Asphalt in Nashville last week. BLS Enterprises Inc., Itasca, Ill., has supplied Roadtec with Tufpads bonded-to-triple grouser track pads for many years. The newly introduced Poly Bolt-On version, which bolts to the steel triple grouser, drew the attention of Roadtec engineers when they talked to BLS President Barry Stoughton.

The Poly Bolt-On Tufpads track pad is the first of its kind to be manufactured for track vehicles and is viewed as especially useful on milling machines. Owners of milling machines can now have the labor savings of easy installation and dismantling of a bolt-on pad and the cost savings that can be realized by reusing the steel grouser. Customers also save money by only needing to buy the poly pad and reusing their steel grouser after the first purchase.
