MAXAM Mining Group says it continues to innovate, adding the all-new MS412 27.00R49 tyre to its open-pit mining, quarry and OTR program.

Designed to meet the demanding conditions at mine sites globally, the MS412 is the result of cutting-edge engineering and groundbreaking compounding technology, the company claims.

The tyre features a high net-to-gross tread pattern for low wear rates that increase tyre life, while MAXAM’s engineers have strategically placed stone ejectors on the tyres to provide maximum protection from drilling – which can lead to the cause of premature tyre removal and out of service conditions.

Engineered with tread grooves that allow for “exceptional traction and heat dissipation”, the MS412 delivers excellent traction in a variety of haul road conditions, MAXAM says.

To enable high speed operation with minimum heat build-up, MAXAM says it has optimised the MS412’s base compound, thereby maximising productivity for mining operations across the globe.

“Featuring a strong all-steel casing to reduce cuts and punctures, the all-new MS412 is engineered with increased casing durability to dominate severe hauling conditions,” it said.

“As an innovative group, with years of expertise in the mining industry, MAXAM’s engineering team has designed the MS412 with a high lug-to-void ratio for improved wear and impact protection, providing mine sites increased protection and wear on haulage tyres. Similar to all large mining haulage tyres in MAXAM’s program, the MS412 has deep tread grooves to provide cooler running tread and longer tyre life.”

Delivering a premium E4 haulage tyre to the industry, the MAXAM MS412 provides exceptional performance, minimum cost-per-hour and a high net-to-gross pattern for maximum tread wear, the company says.

The MS412 is available in one size, but multiple tread compounds, including the ultra-cut resistant compound that was recently released by MAXAM.
