TREADS
Giti Increases GT REE Tread Options
available.
The FuelMax range uses the same compounds and tread patterns as Goodyear’s new tyre range and the
tyres are manufactured and tested to the same standards as its new tyres.
GT Radial’s REE Tread retreading programme has added the size 315/70R22.5 to its GDR690 drive tyre range. The size has been chosen to specifically target UK fleet operators looking to maximise price per kilometre, the company stated. Standing for “reliable, economical and environmental”, the GT REE Tread portfolio comprises the company’s hot cure bead-to-bead remoulds.
The regional drive axle tyre, which is
also available in 295/80R22.5 and 315/80R2.5, is manufactured using GT Radial casings in partnership with a leading UK-based operation.
Tony McHugh, TBR sales and marketing director UK at Giti Tire, said: “We have a very clear commitment to offer the lowest possible cost price per kilometre to today’s fleet operators by utilising GT Radial’s casings’ proven re- treadability, whether mould-cure or pre-cure.
“Since launching the first GT REE Tread tyre at the CV Show in 2012 the demand has been excellent, and the feedback wholly positive. We will continue to expand the range with carefully selected sizes and models to meet market demand.”
The GDR690 features a deep tread pattern with interlocking block arrangement and optimised compounds to ensure excellent traction, especially in wet conditions, as well as optimal mileage performance and resistance to damage and impacts.
Also available is the GT REE Tread GTR990 regional trailer pattern in size 385/65R22.5.
Marangoni Enhances Marix Range with New Mt National 3
GT Radial’s latest REE Tread remould addition is the GDR690 regional drive tyre
Marangoni Commercial Tyres has introduced a new super- single MT National 3 to its Marix range of hot
retreaded truck tyres: an original next generation product by
Marangoni, able to
meet the demands of an extremely selective market thanks to its ability to offer increased mileage
performance and reduced fuel consumption.
The MT National
3 was created to meet the needs of users in the regional and long- distance transport segment, in normal conditions of tread use, and is suitable for trailers and semitrailers.
With a non-directional
tread profile, it features
four wide longitudinal
grooves that give directional stability on any surface, even when wet, snowy, or icy – and the tyre is marked with the new M+S marking, as well as having resistance to overheating ensuring excellent mileage performance.
Goodyear Hot Stuff
Goodyear is expanding its range of hot cure retreaded truck tyres. The FuelMax-D family designed to minimise fuel consumption is now
available in two new sizes 295/60 R 22.5 and 315/60 R 22.5 at. In addition, the sizes 315/80 22.5, 315/70 R 22.5 22.5 and 295/80 are
Other characteristics of the new tyre are its wide and thick shoulders that provide maximum resistance to side and cross scraping, the presence of guards at the bottom of the grooves to decrease the risk of penetration by sharp objects (stones), good water drainage, and the simultaneous reduction of background noise, thereby allowing maximum comfort.
The new super-single is made with a special compound that gives good grip and mileage, ensuring low rolling resistance and reduced fuel consumption. The compound also enables the tyre to work at lower temperatures in conditions of use likely to cause overheating, thereby ensuring reduced fatigue of the casing and a longer life of the tyre in high stress situations.
The MT National 3 is currently available in 385/65R22.5.
