requirements and offers longer product life as well as high load capacity. The robust casing is equipped with an allsteel structure with steel belts which confer greater resistance on the casing and therefore against aggression, such as, punctures and the penetration by foreign bodies. Additionally, the thickness of the side helps to minimise the risk of punctures and accidental damage and so consequent vehicle downtime. Further, SKID MAX SRSKIDDER is equipped with a guard which protects against any punctures and impacts that could damage the area around the rim. The wide tread is designed with a continuous central block which, in combination with the anti static and abrasion resistant tread mix, guarantees excellent traction and long product life. The BKT tyre guarantees optimal comfort for the operators who drive these vehicles for long periods of time. That is why SKID MAX SRSKIDDER can also guarantee excellent comfort and stability in everyday work. SKID MAX SRSKIDDER is currently available in the 260/70R16.5 (10 R 16.5) size. ■ www.technicalreview.me
