Intermat launch for Michelin crane tyre

Michelin’s X-Crane tyre for mobile cranes has evolved into the X-Crane+, offering lower rolling resistance, improved tyre life of up to 15% and greater durability before irregular wear characteristics can be detected, it is claimed. Available in the most popular 445/95 R25 size, the X-Crane+ offers an F speed rating and a 6,700 kg payload, and has been engineered to be easier to mount and dismount from its wheel rim.
