Maxam adds deep-tread solid tire to skid-steer portfolio

Maxam Tire North America Inc. has added a deep-tread solid tire to its skid-steer portfolio, the Maxam MS 706 Construction Pro, designed for harsh working applications.

Maxam ships the MS706 pre-mounted as a complete all-in-one wheel and tire solution for quick and simple bolt-on installation. The MS706 uses internal steel reinforcement rings to eliminate wheel slip and Maxam's three-stage rubber construction process for improvements in ride comfort, traction and durability.

The three-stage construction comprises a pure rubber base with a heat-dissipating cushion center compound and a solid tread centerline for smoother running on hard ground and improved chunk resistance over rough surfaces. Maxam said.

"The zero-maintenance solid construction also eliminates the threat of flat tires often and downtime caused by punctures or sidewall damage, while also ending the need for time consuming air pressure checks," Jimmy McDonnell, vice president of sales and marketing at Maxam Tire North America, said.

MS706 is also demountable, as the tire itself can be purchased separately for future replacement.

Danvers-based Maxam Tire North America is a division of Maxam Tire International S.a.r.l., which designs, manufactures and distributes off-the-road specialty tire products and which in turn is a business unit of China's Sailun Jinyu Tire Group.
