Double Coin has added three new tire sizes to its RR706 product line.

Double Coin’s RR706 is an all-position, mixed service truck tire specifically designed for the construction, waste and refuse industry. According to the company, the RR706 all-position tire is designed for use in heavy applications and high-scrub environments, and is built with a rugged tread design for maximum traction on and off-road.

“Introduced two years ago, the RR706 is a proven performer. Its casing construction enhances performance and retreadability,” said Tim Phillips, Double Coin’s vice president of marketing and operations. “It is also engineered with chip/cut resistant tread compounds for increased service life. The RR706 is now available in three more sizes: 11R22.5/16, 11R24.5/16 and 12R24.5/16. A 12R22.5/18 and a 315/80R22.5 size with a 10,000 lb. single tire load capacity are coming soon.”

The RR706 all-position tire includes a seven-year warranty, and its casings are warrantied for three retreads.
