Tire Selection Is Now Always The Easiest


excavator tire

Regardless of what heavy equipment that you need tires for, the choice will not always be that easy. Choosing the wrong tire can quickly lead to a catastrophy, if the tire cracks or explodes during massive loads or you get stuck in difficult terrain.


The whole scale of the investments involved makes any wrong decisions very fast very expensive. The smaller the tires, the easier the decision is in general true. If you take an excavator tire, then you still have quite many choices of tires and the consequences of selecting the wrong tire can still have serious consequences, but the bigger loads and machines that you will deal with, the consequences increases almost exponentially.

It is well worth checking the technical tire manual to ensure that the load and tires matches the machine where you will fit the tires on. Predicting all circumstances such as terrain and weather conditions combined with the load is always a good start for tire selection. The further off-site you are, the fact that it will be costly to change or repair tires, should be factored into the equation when selecting durable tires.

The current global trade wars will for sure impact all of use in one way or another. There will for sure impact the amount being delivered and arriving at the main ports. The question is though if it will be a significant and long standing disruption. It might also lead to a shift in how the logistics is done. It will most likely not be a big decline, but it is more likely to stifle the growth. So there will be a similar demand of equipment at the main ports as well as in the various terminals. In the big global logistics network there is a big need for tires if high quality that can manage heavy loads, be durable and have long service life to ensure that there is no disruption in the logistics chain and allow timely deliveries of goods around the globe. You have everything from wheeled equipment in the terminals, such as terminal tractors and RTG-cranes, which have strict requirements on needed terminal tractor tires and RTG-tires . These need to be able to carry very heav

Nokian Tyres have a wide range of truck tires to keep you safe on the roads

Truck tires are some of the most used tires as you have trucks on all continents around the world delivering goods throughout our nations. Everything we find in our stores have come from somewhere and it has all arrived by truck to the stores. Some can come as far away as other continents and shipped via freight containers on our oceans to reach a port for further distribution around the continent. So the trucks will have to travel very long distances and have to endure a lot of different weather conditions. This will put a lot of pressure on the truck tires  to be able to ensure that you get to the end destination on time regardless of weather conditions. When it comes to commercial tires is that they are made to endure long distances, but you will need to make sure that you select tires that have been developed with the highest quality and have been tested to endure the conditions that you will drive your trucks through. If you will experience winter conditions, the ti

Better mobility and improved versatility with wheeled excavator

Image
The advantage of a wheeled excavator versus one with tracks is that you have much better mobility and can move around much faster. Depending on the work site you can even manage with just an excavator and a dump truck, where the excavator will dig the site and the dump truck can remove all the material from the site. In some cases you would also add a loader that can collect the material and then dump it in the dump truck, this can of course be avoided it the excavator can dump straight into a dump truck, where you would probably need two dump trucks not to slow down the work of the excavator. With a wheeled excavator you will need to make sure that you will get good reliable excavator tires that will be able to provide enough stability and grip, while also being very durable. The same goes for the dump truck and the wheel loader tires , they will need to be very puncture resistant to avoid having tire problems from the sharp objects like rocks on the site. Ending up with
