The ultimate traction chains by Mod-Link

Built Truckee tough

Truckee, California might be the most demanding town for snow removal in North America. It snows nearly 60 feet some winters!  But it’s not just 60 feet of “snow,” it’s usually 60 feet of that infamous “Sierra Cement.” If you don’t remove it quickly, it seizes up like concrete. As a safety concern, snow removal must be done quickly and thoroughly.

Ruppert, Inc. and Estabrook, Inc. are the top snow removal providers in the town of Truckee. Ruppert is focused on commercial snow removal, while Estabrook is focused on residential snow removal. During big storm cycles, the two companies will operate nearly 40 snow removal loaders, tractors, and blowers at any given time. Reliable equipment is absolutely essential for every storm cycle. Ruppert and Estabrook owners and operators know that demanding snow removal requires excellent tire traction.

That’s why these companies have partnered to launch Mod-Link. With thousands of hours of snow removal operations each winter, these teams know exactly what works and what doesn’t. From steel hardness, to chain thickness, to traction patterns, whether to run ladders or baskets, Mod-Link knows what works best for every machine in every condition.
