Bandag Inc. will offer BTL-SA, Bandag Trailer Linehaul – Spread Axle, tread in the North American market. Specifically engineered for spread axle and multi-axle trailer applications, the tread design offers tough shoulders for tires that twist, scrape and scrub as lateral stress is created when trailers corner.
“As fleets use greater numbers of larger spread axle trailers, tires on the forward axle really take a beating. We’ve modified the shoulders on our BTL-SA tire design to resist the scrub-induced belt separations caused by dragging the forward axle tires in tight turns or while maneuvering at crowded loading docks,” says Chris Hoffman, product manager, global tire products, Bandag.
BTL-SA offers a 16/32” tread depth and is now available in 210, 220 and 230mm sizes.
