Firestone has released the FD835 on/off-highway drive tire, designed for superior traction and removal mileage in severe-service applications such as logging, construction, mining, refuse and oil field service, the company said.
According to the company, the FD835 features an aggressive block tread pattern for superior traction, thirsty angle sipes for wet-surface handling and a deep open shoulder design for superior traction on soft surfaces.
The FD835 also features a one-in. deep tread, a block radial with four steel belts and all-steel casing, split-belt construction, and computer-designed groove shapes, Firestone said. It is available in the 11R24.5 size with an “H” load rating, usable up to 65 mph.
Truck weight isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when considering operational efficiency, hours-of-service regulations, and safety ratings, but it can affect all three.
