Continental is further extending its tire portfolio for the earthmoving industry. The technology company recently launched a new compound for its RDT-Master for the use on Rigid Dump Trucks. The demands placed on off-the-road tires, especially at mining and construction sites, are constantly increasing. At the same time tires must be individually customized to their respective fields of application.
The cut-resistant compound was developed for rough and abrasive applications where tires have to withstand sharp gravel, rocks and stones. Thanks to the newly developed polymer meshing system based on high synthetic rubber and selected components, the RDT-Master CR offers good protection against cuts and damages by foreign objects and an innovative open shoulder design for good self-cleaning abilities and enhanced traction, as well as wear resistance while still maintaining good levels of heat dissipation.
