Durable Enough to be Driven Hundreds of Miles
ROMULUS, MI - One of the hottest new products - durable, effective chains injection molded out of a proprietary polymer for cars, trucks, RVs, snowmobiles and cars - has now been endorsed and supported by a leading TPE supplier and technical support firm. Patented GoClaws® made from a high grade TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) from Advanced Traction Systems, Inc. (www.flextrax.com) are now being endorsed, assisted and supported by Alliance Polymers & Services, LLC (APS). APS is the primary materials supplier and technical molding resource for the manufacture of GoClaws and other related Advanced Traction Systems company products.
According to company sources, the new injection molded plastic product is taking municipal and private fire truck, police and ambulance owners and operators and off-road enthusiasts as well as car and truck fleet companies, by storm. The patented product is not only easy to install and works extremely well in snow, ice, mud or sand, but these tire chains are extremely durable. In recent tests by ATS, even after being driven on snow-covered AND dry pavement more than 300 miles, the plastic tire chains continued to perform and showed little, if any, signs of wear.
Developed as a viable alternative to conventional, fast-wearing, noisy and difficult-to- install metal chains, new GoClaws are the result of many years of design and development based on proven techniques of mechanical engineering, physics, material selection, advanced plastics molding and hydraulics. Materials supplier Alliance Polymers & Services, which not too long ago started small and is now a formidable TPE supplier, saw the potential of GoClaws and invested heavily in the company in terms of providing material samples, beside-the-press advice and formulations, cost breaks on materials and giving extensive, free technical support and other concessions.
Alliance Polymers and Advanced Traction Systems proudly note that some of the continent's largest and most prominent distribution and retail outlets are testing and considering selling the new products. A large portion of the success of the design is attributed to the high quality and unique durability of the thermoplastic polyurethane, a proprietary polymer which is distributed nationally by Alliance Polymers & Services LLC.
GoClaws and other vehicular traction products are designed and manufactured by Advanced Traction Systems, Inc., Cleveland, TN. Other company traction products are sold under the names Flex-Trax, Snoboots and SnoClaws. Features and benefits of the products include: snow or mud tires only when a user needs them; easy installation; no tools required; can be installed at any time, even when the vehicle is stuck; works in snow, ice, mud or sand; self-cleaning; self-tracking; easy on tires, wheels and the pavement; tough enough to be driven on dry pavement; lightweight; will not rust; durable; and competitively priced.
