Galileo Wheel has rebranded its CupWheel product line as TRAKWHEEL by Galileo and announced a 10-year warranty on airless irrigation pivot tires. The warranty covers 10,000 operating hours and applies to irrigation applications. 

The company reports more than 8,000 irrigation wheels sold with no returns to date. Galileo says the rebrand will apply across its irrigation, skid steer and tractor tire lines. The design uses a patented concave sidewall intended to provide track-like traction and weight distribution while fitting standard rims. 

Galileo also confirmed a new investment round to support U.S. market expansion, manufacturing and product development. Partnerships include Yokohama, Trelleborg and distribution through major equipment manufacturers such as Valley Irrigation and Zimmatic.
