Goodyear has developed a new range of GP-4D off-the-road (OTR) tyres for articulated dump trucks (ADTs) and wheeled loaders.
The tyres stand 1.8m tall, and when it comes to load capacity, the Goodyear GP-4D 29.5R25 Hi-Stability tyre can carry 22.4tonnes (at a speed of 10km/
hour when inflated at 6.5Bar in loader application), which is “equivalent to the weight of up to 28 adult black rhinoceroses.”
The Goodyear GP-4D OTR tyre range, suitable for all site conditions including earth and mud, aggregates and rock, comprises six enhanced traction radial tyres for use on ADTs and wheeled loaders. Each tyre has extra tread depth for enhanced mud and soft soil traction as well as massive shoulder blocks for higher resistance to impacts and abrasion in the most severe applications.
The tread also features centreline riding lugs for good lateral traction, long wear and smooth ride.
The 20.5R25, 23.5R25 and 26.5R25 sizes have * for WL and ** for ADT markings, while the other three tyres are Hi-Stability ** rated in both applications and are available in sizes 29.5R25, 775/65R29 and 875/65R29.
