Bridgestone Americas Inc. has rolled out the Firestone FD694, a drive tire designed to deliver “exceptional mileage” for long-haul and regional truck applications. The Firestone FD694 drive tire is currently available in size 295/75R22.5 and will soon be available in three additional sizes: 11R22.5, 11R24.5, and 285/75R24.5.
The tire features a deep and high rigidity tread pattern with a solid shoulder design that offers long, even wear across a wide range of applications; a wear-resistant tread compound; a cap/base compound engineered to enhance retreadability by protecting the casing from heat; wide shoulder and center grooves to help provide solid grip on wet roads; a casing optimized to fight irregular wear; and stone rejector platforms to help protect against hazards penetrating the belt layer.
