An interesting choice for mining equipment is the Maxam MS502. This off road tire goes on dump loaders and it is special because of its design. But, adding to this, there are many more amazing features that deliver an exceptional experience.
Firstly, the Maxam MS502 has a slick tread pattern. It maximizes contact with the ground. Because it features an extra deep L5S design without any grooves, the entire surface of the Maxam MS502 is in direct contact with the ground. This full contact is beneficial in situations where the ground is solid and flat, such as when mining operations take place on hard rock or concrete surfaces. Also, the reinforced materials are perfect for operations in highly abrasive environments. They protect the Maxam MS502 from cuts and punctures. In a mining environment, sharp rocks, metal debris, and other pointed objects are common hazards that can easily pierce or cut through a model that is not made from strong, resistant materials. Thus, these materials come in handy when speaking of such conditions.
Secondly, the sidewalls withstand up to 60,070 lbs per single tire, depending on the size. They also provide greater stability. In mining operations, vehicles often carry extremely heavy loads and operate on uneven, rocky, or rough surfaces. The shoulder design ensures that the Maxam MS502 maintains a larger, more uniform contact area with the ground. And, there are options that feature a tube type build, while others have a tubeless one. Thus, the first one offers protection, and the second one secures a tight rim fit. Finally, the available sizes on the US market start with 24'' and go up to 29'' rim diameter options.
