After years, Hankook received a great reputation thanks to high quality and innovative rubber products. The best trailer tire produced by them is the Hankook e3 Max TL21.
Hankook e3 Max TL21 features a SmartWay Verified tread compound shaped into a five rib pattern. Four linear grooves combined with cross rib sipes help to evacuate rapid water from under the footprint for maximum grip. Wide shoulder ribs reduce shoulder step wear offering easy handling and high stability in high scrub. Thanks to the specialized tread compound, Hankook e3 Max TL21 shows a long lasting and optimal resistance to road hazards. To increase acoustic comfort and road grip, engineers use computer optimized pattern with strategical groove design.
This model also stands out with an innovative Mixing System, that requires low temperature and long mixing time. As a result, this tire ensures long mileage and improved fuel usage. Another important technology used by Hankook is Stiffness Control Theory also known as SCCT. The main role of this technology is to keep the carcass profile stable for uniform weight distribution, thus minimizing belt and bead flex. As a result, this model shows high durability for multiple retreads. Hankook e3 Max TL21 has a stronger casing and thick sidewalls that handle the load even when the truck is overloaded.
In conclusion, Hankook e3 Max TL21 is available for the US market in the following sizes: 11R22.5, 11R24.5, 11R24.5, 285/75R24.5, and 295/75R22.5. It covers a wide range of trailer platforms, fuel tank trailers, and many other semi trailers.
Note: The 11R22.5 size is available in both 14 and 16-ply ratings.
