Goodyear Unveils Latest 63’’ OTR Tire at MINExpo 2016

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company debuted its newest, ultra-large haulage mining tire at MINExpo, held September 26-28, 2016, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Prominently displayed inside Goodyear’s booth, the Goodyear RM-4B+ contains Goodyear’s latest technologies in materials, design, construction and manufacturing, and has been engineered to help mine trucks operate at optimal levels.

“There is no better place to introduce our new, 63’’ RM-4B+ than at MINExpo,” said Eric Matson, global field engineering manager, OTR, Goodyear. “We are proud to offer such a robust, highly engineered product for the world’s largest mining and earthmoving trucks.”

Available globally, the RM-4B+ features:

A high net-to-gross tread pattern for increased cut and impact protection in rugged, hard rock applications;
An extra-deep tread pattern for longer wear;
An enhanced, cool-running compound, “which makes it ideal for high-heat applications,” according to Mr. Matson.

“Our trusted, high-technology products like the new RM-4B+ complement the wide range of cost-reducing support, services and management tools that we are promoting during MINExpo,” said Mr. Matson. “The launch of the RM-4B+ underscores our commitment to the mining industry and end users. We believe this tire will become a ‘must-have’ for mining operations around the world.”
