BettaHaul Pty Ltd has undertaken rigorous testing in real-world applications and evaluations by professional Laboratories.
BettaHaul engineering team focused on R&D and continuous improvements since 2014 by making our products perform under various environmental conditions. Our independent testing concluded a mean analysis of 0.8µ, while professional laboratory tests resulted with an even higher COF result we still maintain 0.8µ in variable climatic conditions.
Important note! Timber bearers absorb moisture thus diminishing COF properties, whereas our rubber maintains high friction performance in most conditions.
Tie-down forces significantly influence friction, whilst using Rubber requires fewer restraints. reference NHVR Load Restraint Guide
Our rubber has been formulated and tested for rebound and strength, additionally showing excellent durability at 10MPa, tested.
The trapezoidal design minimizes rolling effects and increases stability, while our proven Tread pattern improves grip in wet.
Load Test
Load Testing results. Point Load, 200mm Diameter ram using a compression force of 50kN (5.1 tonne) 4 point loactions
Distributed load test 150kN (15.3 tonne) the tests indicated no sign of permanent damage.
Co-Efficient of Friction
BettaHaul has undertaken an independent program to analyse COF characteristics with changing weather conditions, conducted during a 12 month period.
Testing sample positioned horizontally. An applied force of 5.8Kg using mill process Steel on BettaHaul rubber resulted in a mean COF of 0.8µ
Testing undertaken by an accredited Laboratory validate a greater CoF result. Test results performed in Laboritory conditions under ASTM D1894 indicated Static result @ 1.104µ (Click Link)
