Continental Introduces Trackman RowTech
For North American Markets at Farm Progress Show
· New-branded product leads track technology
· Designed specifically for the agriculture industry
DECATUR, Illinois, September 1, 2015 – Continental, a leading worldwide manufacturer and distributor of a broad portfolio of engineered rubber products, is introducing a new innovative row crop product Trackman RowTech at the 2015 Farm Progress Show.
Continental’s Trackman RowTech is designed specifically for Case Rowtrac and New Holland Smart Traxx machines. “RowTech withstands the toughest conditions to allow more time in the field and generate a higher yield,” said Rob Schultz, marketing manager for Continental’s rubber track products. “This new offering provides 70 percent more tread rubber than the current design.”
The increase in the amount of tread rubber in the design makes Trackman RowTech thicker, taller and more robust. The Trackman RowTech is also reinforced with MaxxTuff steel belting that provides increased stability during planting and harvesting applications. “Trackman RowTech actually gives the user more time in the field in tougher conditions,” said Schultz.
For additional information on these applications, visit the Continental Trackman Booth #217 at the Farm Progress Show.
