Zeus Solves Horsch Tyre Fill Quandry

Zeus Tyre Filling Systems, headquartered in Dortmund Germany, claims to have solved the long standing problem of flats and punctures on pneumatic agricultural equipment, by replacing the tyre contents with Zeus’ PolyFill a 2-Part poly-urethane (PU) tyre filling compound. According to the company, PolyFill is made up of a particular kind of two-part PU Material, which not only prevents punctures and air pressure losses, but also delivers greatly improved tyre life and performance.

One recent application saw PolyFill used on some Horsch ‘Multiple – Seed Drilling, Sowing & Back Filling’ agricultural equipment – a particularly important application, where this type of equipment is used in remote locations and/or on multi-day/weekly sowing operations. In addition to putting a stop to the kind of flats and punctures that cause farmers and contracters to fall behind and even lose work, Zeus claims its product is kinder to soil offering better compaction properties during back filling.
