OTICO RUBBER

Rubber is a particularly interesting material, used widely in demanding sectors such as the automotive and aeronautical industry and in infrastructures.

Its physical and chemical properties make it extremely reliable and strong, even when used in severely testing conditions.
INTEREST FOR AGRICULTURAL MACHINERY

These properties are highly sought after in the agricultural industry, because tools (cultivators, seed drills, etc) are subjected to multiple harsh conditions almost continuously:


abrasive soil

(silex, caillous,...)


extreme temperatures

micro-vibrations
moisture
In addition to its ability to withstand such conditions, rubber also has the ability to deform in the field, thereby facilitating self-cleaning which reduces sticking and jamming.
HIGH QUALITY FORMULATION

The mixtures used by OTICO are very high quality. They are developed by specialist firms and are made from natural rubber mixed with various complex ingredients to obtain the desired properties.

OTICO defines the specifications to meet all the operating conditions that the product could face once it is in the field.


The mixtures used are complex: it is thanks to its expertise, acquired over the course of 40 years, that OTICO has been able to determine the most effective mixtures for agricultural semi-hollow wheels and rollers.

OTICO uses different formulation depending on the intended final product (suppleness, high resistance, etc)
