We manufacture tracks for lawn tractors, zero-turn mowers and other equipment. Look more information and request a quote from our website: www.hensutrack...
A great idea, wish I had known about these tracks before I traded in my Murray tractor for a AWD version. I love innovative ideas like that, well Done Hensutracks!!!
Wow! What a bunch of know-it-all haters! Those are really cool and seem to work well. I wish I could buy those in the USA. Shipping alone would be to expensive from Europe.
I am in the process of setting up my Lawn Tractor with a snowblower. This would be perfect for the traction during the winter for snow clearing duties.
hey everybody....YES this is over kill for a cheap box store lawn mower but that's where the complaining has to stop. This is not new unproven technology. They are tracks. Of course they are going to give it much better traction. It puts more surface area of tread on the ground and if they are durable they would work VERY well compared to the turf tires that came off of the thing. I am from Southern Alabama but I've lived in Southeast Alaska and it rains so much there that you would always have to cut grass on soft ground. Matter of fact... it looks a lot like the area that this commercial was made in. Everyone doesn't need these but I'm sure this manufacturer understands that. It's called niche equipment. If it's affordable, there's a place for it so quit trashing this business because you're bored.
I agree. This product will help a lot of people with rough mowing conditions. Especially late spring when grass is still wet. I like the easy install and was glad to see the torque struts on the track frame. You know people will work the shit out of that mower now that it don't get stuck on flat ground.
I'd like a set for my lawntractor in the midwest, its not so much wet grass its the incline and im always loosing traction cutting ruts in the grass. Some of the yard is a boggy mess if you get to close you won't get out ive seen comercial mowers get stuck 2-3 times in that spot. Anything to add postive traction works for me. You also get the use of an all weather tractor thats good in snow, rain, damp or dry conditions, I'll even bet these work good on beaches and in the mud or loose dirt.
1- Lift the deck all the way when you are not cutting so it doesn't drag the ground 2- Get a set of chains 3- If you want to cut grass that high, use a powerful weed eater.
oh shut your pie hole. I can see applications for those on my acreage that your solutions would require 10x the time. Great idea. If I can't buy from them, I'm going to have to make a set
Yeah, I think the main improvement in traction is just the cleats on the tire. I seriously doubt those struts are providing enough pressure to make much use of the rest of the track that is not under the drive wheel...
Reading some of the comments made me laugh. Some people do nothing but complain or insult. I wonder if they have the same attitude while looking in a mirror.
Mowing in very damp or soft ground is really an issue with drainage on residential lots. But this idea really gets going on snow applications pushing a blower without chains or multiple weight packs. Let's see the numbers....
Well, the ground is clearly soaking wet, everything stuck to the tires, even the rider is wearing a rain coat. If course crappy oem tires are gonna slip..lol Your driving in four wheeler country. But nice to know something exists to fix it if you choose to be out riding the lawn tractor in the rain, or the swamp.. 😂😂
I could see how it would be useful in some occasions but probably for their cost you could just use bar (agriculture) tires and dig ruts in your yard that way instead. Then you can afford sod and grass seed too.
You know if you were to lift the blade up a little the regular factor tires would probably go right through it. When you show the tires spinning the mower deck is in the dirt.. green!!!!
Excellent Idea. We cut in all conditions and I can say these would be very applicable on hillsides and bottom lands. Do you have commercial mower designs? How Much?
NOT a bad idea, BUT you don't tell or show folks that in MANY, MANY cases you CANNOT get the rear wheels off the unit to put the tracks on, allot of these tractor types have the wheels frozen onto the transmission shafts with rust etc. Matter of fact IF you buy a NEW tractor like this pull the wheels off at once, get plenty of ANTI SEIZE and coat the transmissions axles completely.
EXCELLENT suggestion, I tell folks IF you buy a NEW product with these type wheel mounts, pull them off AS SOON AS YOU GET HOME, and coat the complete O.D. of the surface with anti seize or heavy grease, will help prevent future issues if you need to pull them off.
If you guys are interested in selling these in the USA I would love to test out these tracks and feature them on my channel. I'm doing a nice Cub Cadet build right now. Stop on by!
At 1:48, you can see that the tracks didn't help much...the torn up grass and ruts made by the tracks are clearly visible in the background. And did you see that horrible excuse for a weld in a close-up early on?
fredy gump I was gonna say the same thing about the weld... I am a self taught welder and have passed many tests and even an x ray I was thinking it wouldn't be to hard to build these and then buy a replacement track for it
It's a nice idea, but if your running it that much in that type of terrain you should probly just get a bigger better machine. Not some skimmpy Snapper Pro lawnmower.
am ersten hang hält er kurz an und fährt dann weiter, deswegen drehen die Reifen durch, beim rückwärts fahren stören die langen Ketten, einfach as Reifen drauf und fertig!
You know in some of those situations wheel weights would have helped to. You should re-release this video with wheel weights on the tractor. To show that they have an advantage over standard wheels and tires and wheel weights.
But thats a lawn tractor your demonstrating it on......a garden tractor has a five bolt lug pattern and gear drive transmission not a splined axle hydrostatic transmission..
Folks should have some understanding of the strength,or lack of it,in the machine's drive train/trans. With too much traction you could smoke belts or actually break something inside the transaxle. Generally,parts and such should be paired with both thought and understanding of the entire system. I think these tracks could be great for some uses and users but detrimental/costly to others. So are these tracks tough enough to put on a garden tractor to pull ground engaging accessories? If yes,which duty of garden tractors? Do the tracks have a built-in function to prevent undo stresses on machines? There are many variables and if you are a casual user like me the only sensible thing is to do research,and,ask questions under videos!
Why so many haters! As a man . I want one just for the hell of it .
Richard I want one of those and one of these: ua-cam.com/video/-CTHoxmOeL4/v-deo.html
A great idea, wish I had known about these tracks before I traded in my Murray tractor for a AWD version. I love innovative ideas like that, well Done Hensutracks!!!
Brilliant. Gas struts for down pressure, nice. Putting these on an inexpensive tractor is also a great idea. Totally cool.
Wow! What a bunch of know-it-all haters! Those are really cool and seem to work well. I wish I could buy those in the USA. Shipping alone would be to expensive from Europe.
Everything seems to work well in the ad
I am in the process of setting up my Lawn Tractor with a snowblower. This would be perfect for the traction during the winter for snow clearing duties.
That's one spontaneous fella you got there.
This is great😀 took a mower that only cuts grass, and made it a workhorse👍🏻
the music is great, uplifting, , I feel a sort of VICTORY song, , great work with the mower, , Boldly go where no mower has gone before.
But there is no sound

actionbob5001 yep.

I have steep hills and this would work great! Much better than tires.. spinning out in dew grass..
That's some ingenious idea 💡. Iike it. The shocks to keep it on the ground. Good idea.
simply putting some old 18.5 inch atv tires on my crafts man mower , I can go anywhere I want to.
Yeah and it won't cost you a $1k like these tracks will...
I hope you make a billion dollars !!! Awesome !!! I want a set
He did not just put the new tracks to the test, now he is warring his mower deck out by cutting the thickest grass it cant even handle.😱
Sweet tracks works great 👍
When are they going to be available in USA great idea interested.
1- Lift the deck all the way when you are not cutting so it doesn't drag the ground
2- Get a set of chains
3- If you want to cut grass that high, use a powerful weed eater.
oh shut your pie hole. I can see applications for those on my acreage that your solutions would require 10x the time. Great idea. If I can't buy from them, I'm going to have to make a set
This is awesome. your video is amazing. SUBBED👍. Keeping Going
I have to wonder if these tracks are doing anything at all. Considering the weight shift is being done by the tiny rods of those struts.
Good idea but i'd want to see a comparison to some more grippy tires than a run-of-the-mill turf tire
Yeah, I think the main improvement in traction is just the cleats on the tire. I seriously doubt those struts are providing enough pressure to make much use of the rest of the track that is not under the drive wheel...
Has any lawn tractor rim ever come of that easy (if at all)...
Yes. All mine, which have always been bought used and abused, have come off with no more then a tap.
@@jackr7028 a tap after being heated to glowing
@@kurtknispel9170 clean the shaft and put some copper grease on. takes a minute. All my wheels just slide off without hesitation.
@@Boemel got to get it off 1st. Some of the mowers here are 30-40 years old and never had the rim pulled
bela roba in vista complimenti !!!
Love the music 🎶
Are these available in the US? If yes, how much? Just curious more than anything....
Best design ive seen
fantastisch, sehr gut!
Great idea how much do they cost and where are they
Zero turns get stuck in just little wet ground.
Donna Guillory i would buy these quick. if would fit my zero turn ferris
Yes, zero turns get stuck with just dew on the ground.. especially with turf saver tires. They do a lot better with some atv tires put on The rims
Reading some of the comments made me laugh. Some people do nothing but complain or insult. I wonder if they have the same attitude while looking in a mirror.
Nice 👍
Lift your mower deck and you wouldn't have a problem. LOL
I usually don't go off roading on my mower but if I was to, I wouldn't.
I like to buy Hensutacks for my Husqvarna mower. Someone please explain how to buy things like this. Thank you!
Mowing in very damp or soft ground is really an issue with drainage on residential lots. But this idea really gets going on snow applications pushing a blower without chains or multiple weight packs. Let's see the numbers....
I have tractor tires on mine and it works fine.
Omg I need these so bas
That would tare the crap out of my 1/2 acre park like grass.
Is it better because of the tracks , or does the more aggressive grip make more difference
It’s actually how much of the track comes into contact with the ground. Tires contact to the ground is very minimal
Well, the ground is clearly soaking wet, everything stuck to the tires, even the rider is wearing a rain coat. If course crappy oem tires are gonna slip..lol Your driving in four wheeler country. But nice to know something exists to fix it if you choose to be out riding the lawn tractor in the rain, or the swamp.. 😂😂
I could see how it would be useful in some occasions but probably for their cost you could just use bar (agriculture) tires and dig ruts in your yard that way instead. Then you can afford sod and grass seed too.
Most mowers don't have a live axle though so only one side is pulling.
Do you do shipping to Australia?
Will these work on a real mower like a grasshopper 725d? or just home improvement store cheapies?
Hi all waiting for my Husq Rider 214 tc is it working with riders too? How about gearbox and clutch? Will tracks not domage them?
You know if you were to lift the blade up a little the regular factor tires would probably go right through it. When you show the tires spinning the mower deck is in the dirt.. green!!!!
Not everybody lives on a putting green.
One word...chains regardless still be useful
Save your self some money go get some small chains put one around each tire hole in rim with bolt works just as well a lot cheaper 😊😊
Wow i`m impressed.
Excellent Idea. We cut in all conditions and I can say these would be very applicable on hillsides and bottom lands. Do you have commercial mower designs? How Much?
NOT a bad idea, BUT you don't tell or show folks that in MANY, MANY cases you CANNOT get the rear wheels off the unit to put the tracks on, allot of these tractor types have the wheels frozen onto the transmission shafts with rust etc. Matter of fact IF you buy a NEW tractor like this pull the wheels off at once, get plenty of ANTI SEIZE and coat the transmissions axles completely.
Numa Newbern yep, pulled the axle out of my husqvarna trying to get a wheel off! that was fun to fix!
I took the real wheels off my Craftsman Pro 54" riding mower for the first time after having it for over 7 years. They came right off.
Consider yourself lucky, I've had completely the opposite experience
I take them off every year and grease the axles, they always come right off.
EXCELLENT suggestion, I tell folks IF you buy a NEW product with these type wheel mounts, pull them off AS SOON AS YOU GET HOME, and coat the complete O.D. of the surface with anti seize or heavy grease, will help prevent future issues if you need to pull them off.
Chains with cleats are a simple answer been using them for several decades improves traction by 50%
Awesome!!
Tyre chains = not just for winter... This seems a bit overkill
Gotrek12345 chains tear up grass and pavement
Would be cool if they didn't cost 10x more than regular bar tires
I need these on my shisqvatna with my snowblower on the front
Very cool!
I would use them on a Lawn garden tractor but it would really be hard a rider with a transaxle.
If you guys are interested in selling these in the USA I would love to test out these tracks and feature them on my channel.
I'm doing a nice Cub Cadet build right now.
Stop on by!
Guy in the video just does not look like hes having fun lol
Will they work on a zero turn?
Where do I buy and how much for the tracks
Where’you get it?
Lift the deck up a bit and your fine haha
Hensu site is also in English. Click in upper right hand corner for ENG.
At 1:48, you can see that the tracks didn't help much...the torn up grass and ruts made by the tracks are clearly visible in the background.
And did you see that horrible excuse for a weld in a close-up early on?
fredy gump I was gonna say the same thing about the weld... I am a self taught welder and have passed many tests and even an x ray I was thinking it wouldn't be to hard to build these and then buy a replacement track for it
Pretty sure they for towing and rough Terrain use , i really couldn't see them being used for mowing a lawn
Why not?
first of all why would you be using your mower in thevrain
in my case, there is like one week in the summer when it`s not raining
Some landscapers have to mow in the rain to meet a clients need.
my mowing business using MTD mowers and they sure mow far better than high dollar machines
Not even a chance are mtd products better than commercial
No they don't
Tears up the lawn!
Nice
It's a nice idea, but if your running it that much in that type of terrain you should probly just get a bigger better machine. Not some skimmpy Snapper Pro lawnmower.
Tracks makes everything better!! Add one of these small loader on the front and fuck that would be so cool.
Different sizes? From 18" wheels to 23-24"...?
Yes, different sizes up to 23"
am ersten hang hält er kurz an und fährt dann weiter, deswegen drehen die Reifen durch, beim rückwärts fahren stören die langen Ketten, einfach as Reifen drauf und fertig!
AG tires + Beat Juice= Problem solved and won't rip lawn up as much
is it for 9 or up
put them on go kart
I think those might fly apart if they were on something fast like a go kart. But hell, I would try it anyway!
You know in some of those situations wheel weights would have helped to. You should re-release this video with wheel weights on the tractor. To show that they have an advantage over standard wheels and tires and wheel weights.
A set of light duty tracks that cost 10 times what that box store mower is worth. 🤣🤣
Awesome,!!!!!
How can i buy it? Thank you
wish i could put these on my John Deere X354 tractor
My 1974 Wheel Horse would have any problem. That's a lawn mower, he needs a tractor.
Where can I order those wheels?
But thats a lawn tractor your demonstrating it on......a garden tractor has a five bolt lug pattern and gear drive transmission not a splined axle hydrostatic transmission..

where can i buy a set of those
Put skis on the front
Where's the cannon?
For the price of those tracks, could have gotten a larger tractor better suited for the purpose on the video.
How can I get tracks
A set of good tire chains will do the same thing!!
Uh, no.
I would like to know where and how to order in the United States ??? Any help???
Hi Bryan, we are working on it, but probably in 2018
2018?!
damn
I'll have to wait is there a mailing list?
ATV tires will also solve the problem
Great idea, but price is absurd.
Where the heck is the sound?! Its like I'm watching some silent movie from the 1800's...
I like this idea.. but the person who did the welding on that attachment.. NEEDS A FIRING pure bubble gum..
Chains my man. Chains
How to fuck up your lawn in less then 10 seconds.
How much are dees????¿
I got wheel weights and chains on my mower so I'm fine.
Why is this guys cut so damn bad just curious i hope it has nothing to do with the product.
