November 16, 2016

With the met office warning temperatures to plummet and snow & ice to hit in the coming months can you afford to have your fleets off the road?

RUD manufacture and supply a wide range of snow chains suitable for passenger cars, 4×4’s, SUV’s, vans, trucks, buses, working machines, commercial and emergency services vehicles. With over 140 years of experience behind them, RUD snow chains ensure ultimate safety and offer maximum traction on snow and icy roads.

Whether your fleets consist of passenger cars, light trucks or buses RUD have snow chains to suit your vehicle requirements. RUD snow chains for Passenger cars / SUV’s and vans are robust, easy to fit and offer a high level of traction on the roads. The RUD comfort CENTRAX snow chains are known as one of RUD’s simplest & easiest to fit, simply mount the adapter and the chain is fitted from the outer side of the wheel without the use of any tools.

If your fleets include larger vehicles such as Trucks and Buses then RUD have the snow chains to fit your vehicles. The RUDmatic MAXI snow chains offer powerful traction on snow and ice for a range of trucks and buses. The innovative spring steel hoop chain fitting system offers virtually automatic fitting and removal of the chains quickly and easily. The chains are suitable for snow and icy conditions.

Perhaps you require more specialised snow chains for your fleets that have limited mounting space and ground clearance issues; such as buses which have pneumatic suspensions and low profile tyres? RUD’s NEW ROTOGRIP CS Automatic Snow Chains have been specifically designed for vehicles with limited mounting space and ground clearance. Simply switch on from the driver’s seat when the weather becomes dangerous and off when the road is clear of snow and ice.

RUD ROTOGRIP automatic snow chains can be used across a wide range of vehicles from road haulage, buses, public transport and emergency service vehicles. The chain comes with pre-tensioned springs which lay the chain strands under the tyre evenly; making driving on chains a much smoother process benefitting the system and the tyres.

With snow and ice being forecast to hit the UK over the coming months it makes sense to ensure your fleets are winter ready and able to get to their destinations regardless of the weather conditions.
