Maxam Tire North America designed the MS405 ‘65 Series' speciality tyres for harsh applications where extreme traction is required.
According to the tyre-maker, the 875/65R29-size Maxam MS405 L4 tyre type has now been validated and approved for use on specific Cat 982M medium wheel loaders.
"Featuring a deep E4/L4 lug pattern that combines excellent grip, stability and performance, the MS405 provides users a solution that meets all harsh demands," the company said.
"Developed with a cut-resistant tread compound and deep undertread, the puncture-resistant MS405 allows superior productivity and minimal downtime."
The MS405 can be used on loaders, graders and earthmovers to minimise vibration at high haul speeds.
"The MS405 was designed to thrive under extreme and rugged conditions, exceed expectations and deliver value. Furthermore, Maxam has the support of the global dealer servicing network with over 1,800 strong and growing allowing for ease of access to the full product line," Maxam Tire North America president Troy Kline said.
Maxam already supplies 23.5R25 MS302 tyres as a factory fitment option on Cat 950GC, 950L, 950M, 962L, and 962M machines in certain regions. The Maxam MS302 tyre sizes have also been validated and approved for future factory fitment on additional Cat medium wheel loaders.
