(name of the tire)
(tire description)
The HSR2 is a heavy steer/all-position tire for regional hauling applications with patented groove technology that minimizes stone retention and extends casing life. The innovative tread geometry provides an even wear pattern under all load conditions and balanced pressure distribution in the ground contact patch. The cut and chip resistant tread compound and protective curb rib make the HSR2 the perfect tire in high scrub and rough road conditions.
Features & Benefits
Advanced Tread Design
- Maximum tire life expectancy and wet traction capabilities through customized tread geometry
- Design reduces stone drilling leading to greater casing protection
Improved Mileage
- Improved cut and chip resistant tread compound delivers optimized performance and mileage
Even Wear
- Even tread wear under all load conditions due to optimized contour and balanced pressure distribution
Traction
- Superb traction on wet and dry surfaces with minimal wear
Vocations
- General Freight (Regional)
- Local Pickup & Delivery
- Refrigerated Freight
- School Buses
- Construction Material Transport
General Freight
- Fleets, trucks and drivers responsible for hauling general freight on a local or regional level
- Fleets typically handle a large variety of commodities and usually the trips are same-day return
- Some overlap exists with other categories such as long haul, refrigerated, leasing/rental and pickup/delivery
- Regional drive tires priorities include weight carrying capacity, durability, fuel efficiency, and traction
- Tires subject to feather edge wear, cupping, excessive deflection, alternating drive tire lug wear, and tramline wear
Pickup & Delivery
- Fleets and trucks involved in pick up and delivery with deliveries consisting of letters, parcels and packages
- Operating conditions include short to long haul routes with periods of frequent stops, tight turns, and high scrub
- Steer tires must deliver even wear, high mileage, scrub resistance, and performance under heavy loads
- Tires subject to feather edge wear, cupping, spotty wear, heel/toe wear, groove cracking, bead heat damage and/or separations
Refrigerated Freight
- Fleets, trucks and drivers responsible for hauling time sensitive refrigerated goods through either long haul and/or regional service
- Business is time sensitive, so service to the fleet is critical
- High degree of performance tracking is integral to this business model
- Tires subject to feather edge wear, cupping, excessive deflection, alternating drive tire lug wear, and tramline wear
School Buses
- Bus fleets usually owned by city municipalities, primarily carrying children passengers so safety is critical
- Regional operations require high scrub resistance due to tight turns and environment
- Drive tires for buses require serviceability, even wear, traction, and scrub resistance
- Tires subject to feather edge wear, cupping, shoulder wear, spotty wear, alternating drive tire lug wear, and excessive deflection
Construction Material Transport
- Regional/local market fleets transporting maximum weight from yard to work sites returning empty.
- Vehicles operate in very tight turns with high scrub and deliver materials to customer locations which require traction in off road conditions
- Common truck types include end dumps, side dumps, flat beds, and pneumatic tanker trucks
- Tires exposed to a high degree of aggressive surfaces and subject to tread chunking, bead separations, sidewall cuts, chipping and flaking
