Goodyear introduces new tyres for off-road applications

The new Hi-Stability technology featured in the latest range of Goodyear tyres is said to increase load capacity in off-road applications by up to 25%. The new tyres have been developed to match the power, speed and torque of the industry’s latest machines. Hi-Stability tyres allow higher inflation pressures, increasing the load capacity of the machines to which they are fitted – it is the air that carries the load. A loader that can hold 9tonnes when fitted with conventional tyres at 5bar can carry 12tonne

RSSThe new Hi-Stability technology featured in the latest range of 5010 Goodyear tyres is said to increase load capacity in off-road applications by up to 25%.

The new tyres have been developed to match the power, speed and torque of the industry’s latest machines. Hi-Stability tyres allow higher inflation pressures, increasing the load capacity of the machines to which they are fitted – it is the air that carries the load. A loader that can hold 9tonnes when fitted with conventional tyres at 5bar can carry 12tonnes when it has Hi-Stability tyres inflated to 6.5bar, according to Goodyear.

    January 6, 2017
    Hyundai used INTERMAT to show its 22tonne hybrid excavator – the 220LC-9. Designed and developed in-house with electric components from the company’s electronics division, the Hybrid 220LC uses an electric motor for its slew functions, enabling a smaller engine to be fitted.“This combination means we can use a four-cylinder 98kW engine in the hybrid compared to a six-cylinder 118kW engine in the conventional R220LC-9,” explained Hyundai product engineer Joachim Van de Perre.

  • ENH shows bitumen emulsion plant technology at INTERMAT
    April 20, 2012
    ENH may operate in 60 countries but its bitumen emulsion plants are relatively new to the French market. But interest from French contractors at the show is proving high, said managing director Erik Haugaard. Mobile ENH equipment is typically used for producing a mix for road repairs. Basing the ENH mill near to where repairs are taking place enables the patching equipment to return at regular intervals for a new supply of material.
