Specialist Wheels
Abrasive (rasp) wheels
The abrasive wheel kits have been designed to enhance grip,
boosting the distance and capability of your P350 flexitrax system
in a wide-range of applications. Particularly recommended for
brand new plastic, greasy, or ‘relined’ pipes where grip with
standard rubber wheels can be challenging.
These are available in 5 kits with suitable adaptors for pipe size (6”,
8” and 9” pipes). The small abrasive rasp wheels should use the
62mm wheel size setting, while the large abrasive rasp wheels
should use the 110mm wheel size setting

84mm ‘Slim Profile’ Wheels
84mm wheels improve performance in areas where the pipe diameter decreases, typically joint offsets and areas with
reasonable debris buildup. The slimmer profile of the unit allows a greater chance of passing through these tight
areas. Adaptors are required to attach these wheels to the P350
Figure 2.2b Kit of 84mm wheels
CAUTION, when using the 84mm wheels with the 84mm wheel adaptor, select 84mm size wheels in the MENU
> EQUIPMENT >WHEELS area. Failure to do so may cause stress to the tractor motors and cause early life failure.
Please note these wheels also require controller software 4.8 or above to be able to select appropriate wheel sizes.
Double-large wheel adaptors & configuration
Comprised of 2 full sets of P356 Large wheels (8x) and (4x) adaptors, allowing the large wheels to be mounted in a
tandem configuration. Designed to increase surface area and grip helping to navigate silted culverts and pipes.
