Replacement Tire for a Valley Irrigation System

What makes the EWRS-PIVOT the best replacement tire for a Valley Irrigation system? There are actually 5 reasons. We at Evolution Wheel wanted to design a pivot tire that will solve all the problems farmers encounter with their irrigation tires, so we did.

5 Reasons Why You Should use an EWRS-PIVOT Airless Pivot Tire

Flat-Free Tires
Increased Traction
Increased Floatation
Serviceability
Cost-Effective

Flat-Free Tires

The EWRS-PIVOT airless irrigation tire is a no flat tire. Flat tires out in the field can cause all sorts of problems. Causing costly damage and downtime to your Valley irrigation system. The EWRS-PIVOT series airless irrigation tire is, of course, an airless tire which means it's incapable of going flat. No more costly downtime, damage, or special equipment needed to fix flats in the field.

Increased Flotation

To prevent deep ruts in the field, we built our tires with bi-directional tread and a concave profile. Our bi-directional tread is designed not to dig into the mud as it travels. Directional tread has angled lugs that push dirt from underneath the tire out as it travels along a path. Our tread does not.

Almost all irrigation tires have a convex profile where the center of the tire is taller and rounds out towards the edges. This pushes mud from underneath the tire similar to directional tread patterns. The EWRS-PIVOT has a concave profile where the edges of the tire are tall and slops into the middle. This design hold mud underneath the tire where it belongs.

Increased Traction

Traction is the second biggest issue farmers have with irrigation tires right after flats in the field. Airless irrigation tires have a reputation for having poor traction which is why many irrigation farmers are hesitant to make the change to airless options.

The poor traction is due to most airless irrigation tire options being inflexible. Flexibility in a tire allows it to wrap around obstacles instead of slipping on them. We use unique core geometry in our rubber that is designed to flex like a pneumatic tire providing better traction while also being flat-free.

Serviceability

The EWRS-PIVOT is also engineered to be serviceable for your convenience. The tire is composed of rubber segments that bolt onto the high-strength steel rim. these rubber segments are easily replaceable. All you need is a 3/4" wrench and an extra segment. Simply unbolt the damaged segment, remove it, and replace it with the new one.

Cost-Effective

Due to the longevity and the serviceability of our tires, our tires offer saves you money. A regular pneumatic tire is initially cheaper however when it goes flat will need to be replaced. A flat tire can damage your irrigation system demanding costly repairs, and the downtime that they create can affect crop yield and take up valuable labor costs. Using these tires you get rid of all these extra costs increasing your ROI.
