Alcoa Wheel and Transportation Products has added another member to its LvL ONE line. The new, 14-in. LvL ONE wide base wheel weighs only 62 lbs. Long-haul operators still running on steel wheels can realize a 1,344-lb. reduction in rig weight by converting to these new aluminum wheels, Alcoa noted. According to independent fuel studies, the conversion can result in fuel savings as high as 7%.

According to the company, the newest entry also features a 50-brightness rating, documented by using standardized test methods for the measurement of high gloss surfaces. The Dura-Bright polished option helps wheels keep their sparkle without polishing, helping each rig in every fleet project a sharp, clean, well-maintained image year after year after year.
