New Otraco 3arm® Series 7 now released.
The Otraco 3arm® Support Tool has revolutionised OTR tyre fitting and has been delivering significant safety improvements since first launched in 2016. The latest model (Series 7) now offers improved functionality, within the same lightweight design, with 60 kg load capacity.
Transforming the handling of heavy tooling, the Otraco 3arm® Support Tool is designed fit-for-purpose by Otraco for some of the toughest vehicle applications on the most challenging mine sites in the world.
By eliminating the need for tyre fitters to manually handle heavy tooling such as rattle guns and torque guns, the Otraco 3arm® Support Tool improves tyre maintenance and operator safety.

Otraco Sealing Clamps
Otraco Sealing Clamps provide a safe, consistent and time effective method of achieving an air-seal for tyres mounted on double gutter and OVM / integral gutter type rims.
Tyres fitted to double gutter and integral gutter/OVM type rims can sometimes be difficult to seal due to the inability of the pre-mounted bead seat bands to come into contact with the sealing o-rings on the rim.
Otraco Sealing Clamps enable the outer facing bead seat band to be secured against the outer o-ring, whilst the tyre handler manipulates and secures the inner bead seat band against the inner o-ring, allowing an air-seal to be achieved. When an air-seal is achieved, the tyre can be inflated safely and efficiently, without the need to employ other ‘trouble-shooting’ methods.
The plate thickness on the 4th Generation design has been increased to support higher working loads and minimise the likelihood of damage as well as to reduce fatigue. The screw shaft diameter has also been reinforced to handle higher levels of stress compression.
The Otraco Sealing Clamps have a combined working load limit of 1,500 kgs (500 kg/unit).
