Ironman 4x4 Reco Tracks GT Recovery Board — Sand

Short Product Summary

The Ironman 4x4 Reco Tracks GT Recovery Board in Sand is a moulded traction board that gives a bogged tyre a toothed surface to grip in loose ground. Its scooped end doubles as a digging tool, and two or more boards can be linked together for longer stretches of soft going.

Why This Product

A tyre spinning in loose ground digs itself in deeper the longer it spins, and a shovel isn't always within reach. This board's teeth are laid out from research into common off-road tyre tread patterns, and its concave ramp is shaped to help a tyre climb up onto the board rather than push it aside. Once you're through, the scooped end works as a digging tool, and the board can be turned end for end for the next recovery.

Key Features

• Mathematically placed teeth – laid out from research into common off-road tyre tread patterns for extra traction
• Concave ramp shape – shaped to help a tyre climb onto the board instead of pushing it away
• Deep-gutter scoop end – doubles as a tool for clearing sand out from under a buried tyre
• Directional tooth layout – suits forward or reverse recovery, with the board reversible end for end
• Daisy-chain end mouldings – allow two or more boards to link into one longer section for extra momentum
• Low-profile shape – keeps a board compact to store in or on the vehicle
• Mounting pins or a base plate – available separately to secure the board to your vehicle

Ideal For

• Beach and dune drivers who need a way to clear sand from around a tyre and get moving again
• Solo recovery drivers who want to drive out or reverse out using the same board
• Convoy or touring groups who want boards that link together across longer soft sections
• Owners planning permanent on-vehicle storage who intend to fit the separate mounting pins or base plate
