06 Feb 2023 CW Team

Three new off-the-road tyres (OTR) have been introduced by JK Tyre, a renowned tyre producer, during Bauma CONEXPO 2023. The new products include 23X5.7-12 JET TRAX SUPER II 4PR TL, 26.5- 25 Loader Champ 28PR E4/L4 TL, and 23X8.50-12 JET TRAX ULTIMA 6PR TL.

The business claims to be the market leader in production for India's largest tyre size, the 40.00-57, which has a 12-foot diameter and weighs over 3,400kg. The company offers a wide variety of durable goods to meet the many needs of industrial and mining use.

President of JK Tyre & Industries for India, Anuj Kathuria, stated: "JK Tyre has been in charge of introducing a number of cutting-edge and technologically advanced products. Our commitment to innovation and to creating products that maximise performance and durability even on the most difficult Indian terrains is shown in our strong position in the off-the-road tyre market. We are confident that the three new tyres will further solidify our position in the OTR tyre market as "category defining" ground-breaking products.

The 26.5-25 Loader Champ 28PR E4/L4 TL is a high-end heavy-duty product made for articulated dumpers and wheel loaders. It has a high-depth tyre with a specially created tread pattern that provides excellent grip, mileage, and cut resistance under demanding mining operating circumstances.

For the international markets, two new skid steer loader tyre varieties are planned: the 23X8.50-12 JET TRAX ULTIMA and the 23X5.7-12 JET TRAX SUPER II. They are intended for use in "Non-Highway services (NHS)" and other types of construction machinery. The tyres' silica-based tread compound offers higher resistance to deterioration. The tyres also have a strong wide wall and rim guard design, which increases their resistance to external damage and their ability to protect the rim flange from wheel damage.
