Seven new sizes of the Alliance 590 set the bar in terms of versatility and performance in agricultural and construction transport applications.
Alliance 590 Sets the Bar
Yokohama Off-Highway Tires (YOHT) has introduced new sizes of this heavy-duty radial flotation tyre for trailers, tankers, etc. With eight sizes altogether, its higher non-skid depth and in part also higher load index, the Alliance 590 performs greatly in its segment. The heavy-duty radial flotation pattern Alliance 590 was designed to specifically meet the requirements of all kinds of transportation operations in agriculture and construction. This flotation tyre features a robust, reinforced steel-belted construction for improved strength and better puncture protection, thus enabling it to gently handle heavy loads in fields, on roads and on construction sites.
“We are proud that Yokohama Off-Highway Tires stands for profound expertise, i.e. the industry’s largest portfolio of flotation tyres for trailers, tankers, etc. The extent of the range, its multi-application flexibility along with the tyre’s excellent performance and durability give evidence of superb value for money – a fact that is underlined by our 10-year warranty”, highlights Angelo Noronha, President Europe at Yokohama Off-Highway Tires (YOHT).
The high rubber to void ratio of the non-directional tread ensures optimum grip and traction as well as lower soil pressure in the field along with a smooth and comfortable ride on the road. At the same time, low deflection along with superior cut and chip resistant compounds allow for high stability and lasting operation on various surfaces. Excellent self-cleaning characteristics also result from the unique tread design with its high tread depth, open channels and aggressive shoulders with wide openings. The performance of these tyres cope very well in the rough conditions that they are asked to work in. They offer very good traction, especially on sloping ground when loading the trailers. The 590’s block pattern also has excellent self-cleaning properties, helping to kick off-off the mud before getting out of the yard and onto the road. The 590 pattern tyres with their heavy load carrying capability are proving to be a great addition.
Seven new sizes extend the Alliance 590 tyre range. The original launch size was 560/60R22.5. The new sizes are 600/55R26.5, 650/60R26.5, 650/55R26.5, 600/60R30.5, 650/65R30.5, 710/50R30.5 and 750/60R30.5. Alliance 590 was built to offer new dimensions of versatility, performance and productivity for all transportation requirements for both agriculture or construction. It sums up to a perfect ‘winning-package’ and clear benefits for end-users.
