BKT Adds Two Tires to Ridemax Line

Balkrishna Industries Ltd. (BKT) and its Italian distributor Univergomma unveiled two additions to the Ridemax line. The Ridemax FL 693 M is a radial tire designed for mainly on-the-road use by those who travel with trailers or tank trucks. Ridemax FL 693 M combines performance with self-cleaning features, and allows for higher speeds on the road with low rolling resistance, which provides for lower fuel consumption, BKT says. The Ridemax FL 698 is an all-steel radial tire designed for road usage achieving speeds of 80 km/h. It was designed for dumpers traveling from pits to sites, the company notes.
