Re: Help finding blue tread

I've got the Blue nitrile stuff and the black sbr stuff here in front of me. According to the kids that like it, the blue stuff smells better. It is also stiffer.

Re: Help finding blue tread

The link is to the tread we use. We prefer it to the wedge top or rough top treads.

Re: Help finding blue tread

Yep, can confirm. Our favorite tread material too! The smell sticks around for a while after cutting it on the bandsaw.

Can confirm the wonderful smell. No, you're not crazy.

Re: Help finding blue tread

Im slightly annoyed now. We used several yards of the black tread on our tracked robot and now I wish we went with the blue nitrile so we could have a nice smelling build room for once.

Do you have any pictures of this tracked bot? Any information?
I recently used the same stuff for a rover competition. Sticks well in sand.
