TIR Rubbers

TIR rubber tensioners are used for flexible tensioning and fastening of truck tarpaulins, covers and technical fabric constructions. The elastic material maintains tension while absorbing movement and variations in load during use.

The range includes black TIR rubber tensioners made from EPDM with a diameter of 8mm. The versions differ in length and can be combined with suitable fastening components for various tarpaulin and transport constructions.

Applications

In the transport industry, trailer manufacturing, tarpaulin fabrication and technical textile processing, TIR rubber tensioners are used for tensioning truck tarpaulins, covers and protective fabrics. They are suitable for applications requiring flexible fastening to accommodate movement and variations in tension.

What should you consider?

Check the length and diameter of the rubber in relation to the distance between the fastening points. Consider the required stretch, load and operating conditions. Avoid excessive stretching and regularly inspect the rubber for wear or damage.

Processing and use

Attach the TIR rubber tensioner to the designated fastening points and apply tension in a controlled manner. Depending on the construction, suitable hooks or other fastening components can be used. Ensure an even distribution of tension and avoid contact with sharp edges.

Matching products

Various S-hooks, eyelets and additional fastening components are available for complete installations. TIR rubber tensioners with pre-fitted S-hooks and other elastic tensioners can also be used, depending on the tarpaulin system.

Alternative or other version

The range includes black 8mm EPDM TIR rubber tensioners in lengths of 18, 20, 25 and 40cm. The same lengths are also available with pre-fitted S-hooks in 40/4 and 45/4 versions for applications requiring direct hook fastening.
