Resilient Wheels Defence

Description:

GMT manufacture a selection of rubber wheels to suit a range of applications. Our selection of resilient wheels for the defence industry includes track systems used on main battle tanks, other armoured personnel carriers, snow groomers and snowcats. Alternatively, we offer resilient wheel systems which can be used on railways, urban tramways and on other applications such as overhead cable car systems and aerial tramways. Through our understanding of the individual applications, GMT has developed a range of rubber compounds exclusively for use in the manufacture of resilient wheels to support the diverse range of extreme environments that such rubber wheels operate in.
