Trelleborg Will Expand Radial Construction Tire Line

Jan. 21, 2021

Trelleborg Wheel Systems is planning to introduce new sizes for its EMR 1042 and EMR 1051 radial OTR tire lines in early 2021.

Designed for articulated dump trucks and wheel loaders, the EMR 1042 range "maximizes the efficiency of hauling operations in open pits and quarries, construction work and landscaping," according to Trelleborg officials.

"Made to last, the tire has a reinforced sidewall rubber ring guard protection and a robust carcass. Sand, rock, gravel and soil are no match for its exceptional grip and traction. The new EMR 1042 sizes will include 23.5R25 and 26.5R25, in addition to the current 29.5R25 size."

Tires in Trelleborg's EMR 1051 range feature a multi-surface tread design that offers enhanced traction, "whether operating in open pits and quarries, construction sites or landscaping. Engineered with a state-of-the-art compound, strong radial carcass, and an extra deep tread, the EMR 1051 optimizes load distribution and tire life, while boosting ride comfort and fuel efficiency."

New sizes for the EMR 1051 range include 20.5R2523.5R25, 26.5R25and 29.5R25.

Marcello Mantovani, product manager, construction, Trelleborg, says that "much like our EMR1025 all-season tire, the expanded EMR range showcases the cutting-edge design and engineering that goes into our specialty tires for industrial applications.

"Both the EMR 1042 and EMR 1051 tires offer superior traction, enhanced damage protection and durability, plus a reinforced carcass and sidewall protection to extend tire life and increase rider comfort.”
