The new Nokian CT BAS tyre is the solution for demand set by heavy trailers. This trailer tyre offers load bearing capability and stability for construction sites together with reliability and predictability which is highly appreciated by the contractors.
The rough environment poses considerable challenges for the tyre construction and tread structure of heavy trailers. Bits of steel, nails and sharp rocks can cause unexpected delays. Nokian Heavy Tyres brings now its top end technology for puncture resistance, which was developed for the forestry tyres, to the construction sites. The tyre features also new BAS-technology developed by Nokian Heavy Tyres. This enables the usage of higher pressure levels in the tyre.
Heavy loads set the demand for the trailer tyres – stability and control is needed
Nokian CT BAS tyre itself is very robust but at the same time it behaves smoothly in transportation speeds on the road and in uneven terrain. Soft soil can give in under a heavy load and cause delays. The tyre has a large footprint which means predictability and good stability while unloading as well as very good flotation on soft surfaces.
Nokian CT BAS trailer tyre brings stability, lightness and comfort to construction transportation. The large footprint, a low rolling resistance and a high load bearing capacity adds value to trailer properties and gives the contractor more efficiency. The tread pattern is designed in a way that it carries the minimal amount of mud, soil or rocks to the road or streets.
Open tread design and its shape give the tyre good self-cleaning properties while rotating. A low noise level is requested from the tyre when working close to peoples’ houses. The phase shifting block array in the tread pattern helps on minimizing the noise.
The new Nokian CT BAS in size 650/55R26.5 177D is now available.
