Bridgestone Americas Off Road Tire, a division of Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, has developed an enhanced line of large loader tires for the mining, quarry and coal industries in North America. The 45/65-45 DuraLoad off road tire features a new, flatter crown radius for larger, more even footprint pressure and less heat generation, thus promoting longer tire life. The new DuraLoad, designed to optimize traction and wear life, will be available in both L4 and L5 configurations, beginning with the 45/65-45 L5 NS, starting the second quarter of 2011.
The V-Steel J-Traction radial off-road tire's computer-optimized center block provides improved loader operator comfort.
Bridgestone M775 on/off-highway drive radial is aimed at severe-service applications and is capable of highway speeds to 65 mph.
