Continental plans to present its latest construction-grade tyre at Bauma 2022, in Munich, Germany, next month, saying that the new LD-Master L5 Traction radial tyre is ready for demanding conditions and fitted with tyre sensors straight out of the factory.

The LD-Master L5 Traction radial tyre expands the ContiEarth range, initially in size 35/65 R33, with its construction specifically designed for loaders operating on abrasive surfaces and in face working jobs where high productivity and assured vehicle uptime are of upmost importance.

The reinforced 3* carcass satisfies the highest load carrying capacity requirements, even under extensive production cycles, according to Continental. The L5 traction tread pattern protects the carcass and ensures smooth and safe operation on site, while the solid tread block design provides secure traction. The extra deep tread and sidewall protection also make the tyre more robust and ensure long-term productivity.

To minimise idle time and ensure serviceability even under harsh conditions, the special tyres fitted to machinery should be controlled as precisely as possible. The LD-Master L5 Traction is fitted with an integrated tyre sensor, ex-factory, making monitoring possible in real time. The sensor monitors temperature and tyre pressure, assuring at all times the most efficient operation mode for a long tyre life.

In addition to the LD-Master L5 Traction, Continental plans to present its EM-Master E3/L3 as 65-series for construction/surface applications at Bauma 2022 and a sneak preview of a new solid skid steer tyre.

Bauma 2022 will be running from October 24-30, in Munich, Germany.
