OTR Grassmaster Review

Following the previous blog posts, today we will take a look at yet another bias ply lawn mower and garden equipment tire. As we have stated before, bias ply tires are perfect for garden applications thanks to their turf friendly performance, reinforced construction and overall controllability.

The next garden equipment tire we will talk about today is the OTR Grassmaster. This tire ensures a longer tread life with the tread design and internal structure, while also ensuring the driver’s full control over the vehicle. The tire is able to perform without harming the turf surface, which makes it perfect for lawn mowing vehicles.

Longer Tread Life

Tires with longer lasting tread lives are more desirable on the market. They are more popular as customers (drivers) want to purchase cost efficient models. The longer a tire is in use, the more budget friendly it becomes.

The Grassmaster utilizes its tread design and durable tire compound to extend its usability. The tread design features large S-shaped tread blocks that cover the entire tread area, even the shoulders. These tread elements create a flat footprint which ensures the tire’s close road contact. In this manner, the tire is able to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoids irregular tread wear formations, which lengthens the tire’s service life.

The durable tire compound, on the other hand, reinforces the tread against wear. The wear-resistant tire materials enable the tire to significantly slow the tread wear rate down, which greatly decreases the tread wear rate. This, combined with the even tread wear manner, guarantees the tire’s lengthened usability and tread life.

Controllability and Maneuvering

All tires must be fast and precise in their controllability. The tire’s tread design and internal structure work together, in such cases, to increase the steering responsiveness and the driving stability and to improve the driver’s control over the vehicle.

The Grassmaster features a flat footprint thanks to the optimally placed S-shaped tread block pattern. This tread design enables the tire to closely follow the surface it is driven on, which significantly boosts the steering response time and accuracy. The driver has full control over the vehicle, in such a manner, as the tire’s upgraded steering responsiveness guarantees the tire’s controllability.

The internal structure manages to secure the driving stability. The bias ply structure of the Grassmaster reinforced the tire against the driving and load pressure affecting it. As a result, the tire maintains the ideal tire shape during its performance and promotes exceptional structural stability throughout its performance.

Turf Friendly Performance

Tires meant to be mounted on garden equipment vehicles must offer a turf friendly performance. In other words, they have to securely perform without harming or damaging the turf surface.

The Grassmaster guarantees a secure driving experience. The S-shaped tread block placement over the tread area and the flat footprint work together to improve the tire’s soft traction. This traction enables the tire to safely perform on various turf surface conditions, without digging into the surface for a better grip. In this manner, the tire does not harm the grass field or lawn surface, while also offering a safer traction on slippery and muddy surface conditions.
