Minimise occupational health and safety risks associated with the weight and awkward handling of replacing steel OEM cleats overhead with our innovative Lightweight Rim Cleats.

National Plastics & Rubber is proud to announce that our Lightweight Rim Cleats received the Austmine Innovation (METS) Award 2022 at the Queensland Mining & Engineering Exhibition (QME). In collaboration with Thiess, we engineered these cleats to significantly reduce manual handling risks for tyre fitters, combining innovation and safety in one effective solution.

“These cleats have the potential to transform tyre fitting and handling practices well beyond the mining industry.”
