Off-Road Flatproofing

Arnco has significantly expanded production output on its QuikGel™ self-sealing polyurethane liner to meet a growing demand for the product in off-road vehicle applications. QuikGel is the only flatproofing liner that provides protection from punctures up to 5/16” in diameter. It also is a lighter alternative to Arnco’s extensive line of polyurethane flatproofing fill materials and offers superior protection and true sidewall coverage to the middle of the sidewall. It has extra shoulder coverage for lateral punctures, optimized coverage in high-risk areas of the tire and maximum protection in the tread area versus the tread center line. The liner, first introduced in 2005, was successfully tested for speeds up to 90 mph by the Department of Transportation and is being used in tires for over-the-road pickup trucks.
