Features:
Specs:
The standard tread on these tires has solid, continuous ribs with very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. These tires are designed for use on trailers, so they don't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.
Rambler radials have double polyester cords and double steel belts. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation.
Radial ply tires are designed for trailers that are towed on the highway. The cords on a radial tire are positioned at a 90-degree angle to the direction of travel so that they lay across the width of the tire from wheel lip to wheel lip. This construction prevents the cords from rubbing against one another when the tire flexes, unlike the cords on a bias ply tire. As a result, radial tires have less rolling resistance and heat buildup, which leads to a longer tread life and improved steering at higher speeds.

Hello, neighbors, it's Brad here from etrailer. And today, I'm at NATM. And this convention brings a lot of the vendors that we have at etrailer to a convention where we have their booths and their products set up. I had a chance to catch up with quite a few of 'em, so let's take a look at their products a little bit up close and ask some of the questions to those vendors about their products. I'm here with Bill from Taskmaster. Bill, what is Taskmaster Taskmaster is a tire and wheel company.
It was founded in 1985 by Tom Walker. We put trailer tires and wheels into the OE market as well as in the aftermarket. Trailer tires, you know, obviously, trailer's been around for a while. Where did it start and where is it now Some of the first trailers built, most of 'em had used tires on 'em. And as the trailers got bigger and more sophisticated, so did the tires.
From used tires to bias ply tires to some of the state-of-the-art, you know, radials that are put on them today. And so you guys have a few different lines of tires to cover a few different things. So let's take a look at those and break 'em down. Okay, great. So this is our Rambler trailer tire.
This tire is your do-it-all tire. Comes with eight, 32nds of tread. It's a very durable tire. It's made for every one. This is our entry-level tire, but this will do all the same things that any of our tires will do.
So you see you got a side-by-side loaded up, utility trailer, perfect application for it. Bill Yeah, we designed this tire to be used by everyone. Makes sense. This is our Strider trailer tire or our middle tire in our lineup. This tire is designed for just a little bit heavier of an application, big campers, big boats. This tire, it does come with 10, 32nds of tread. This tire is made to haul a heavier load. Brad Makes sense. So if you're loaded up with an RV or a toy hauler or something along those lines, this would be something they'd look at Yeah, with the 10, 32nds of tread versus the eight, 32nds of tread on the Rambler, it's made to just be put in a more using application where it is used more often. Fair, so would this fall into a category too if someone had maybe a light-duty work trailer that they use every day, would this be a good application You could, yep. This tire absolutely could be used every day. Okay. Now, where's the Provider fall in the line The Provider tire is our best-in-class tire. This tire's backed with 20 years of performance. If you're using your trailer every day, if you've got extreme demands on your trailer, this is the tire for you. It was built with the highest level of end user demand in mind. Makes sense, so this is, obviously, having a picture of heavy equipment on here. So this is gonna be high loads, you know, anything heavy equipment, but also you're beating up your trailer, you're using it hard. Yeah, that's right. This is as good as it gets in the trailer tire world. If you're gonna put your trailer under extreme stress and high demand, this is the tire you wanna use. So you guys offer not only tires but also assemblies with the wheel already pre-installed, correct That's right, we can sell tires, we can sell wheels, and we can sell assemblies as you see here. All of our stuff is mounted on match-mounting equipment, state-of-the-art equipment that matches the tire and the wheel together. If you'll see the two points on the tire right there, that's how automotive tires are mounted. So on your personal vehicle, you see that type of thing. We're the only ones in the trailer market that will mount an assembly like that and have the capabilities of doing that. And that's nice too because, you know, say you're just replacing one tire and, you know, instead of having to take that wheel off, take it to a shop to get mounted and balanced, you can just get the assembly. Take a few lug nuts off, pop it back, and you're ready to go. That's right. It can be as easy as that. That's nice. So having those options regardless if you have tires that are worn out or you want whole new assemblies to be able to replace all of 'em, Taskmaster has a whole wide range of tires that you can pick from. Huge thanks to Bill for taking the time to break those tires down for us and thanks for watching. Thanks.
