Oliver Rubber Co. has announced the launch of the Oliver Lug Traction Drive (ORCO LTD), a new lightweight, open-shoulder drive-position retread for regional and urban commercial vehicles. According to the company it is designed to deliver excellent all-weather traction and durability, and is ideal for school bus pick-up and delivery, as well as food and beverage applications.

The ORCO LTD utilizes a tread feature called VDI Plus, which resists stone retention and other road debris and helps enforce any pull point schedule. ORCO LTD is available in the following five widths: 200; 210; 220; 230 and 240. It replaces the Oliver Super Traction Deep retread. All Oliver retreads carry a national warranty to 2/32nd-in. of tread depth.

In addition, the Oliver Ultra Low Profile (ULP) Trailer is now available in a new 375 mm size. Designed for long-haul, wide-base trailer applications, this line extension brings an important size to the portfolio of SmartWay-verified retreads in the ULP Trailer lineup, the company said.
