Michelin Adds New X Tweel SSL AT Tire Size

Michelin Tweel Technologies is expanding its 10N16.5 X Tweel SSL All Terrain airless radial skid steer tire to include 10×16.5 tires.

“Responding to customer requests, we developed our newest version of the Michelin X Tweel SSL to give owners and operators of smaller skid steer loader machines the opportunity to experience all of the advantages of the Tweel Airless Radial Tire, including reduced downtime due to flats, increased operator comfort and improved productivity,” said Olivier Brauen, head of Michelin Tweel Technologies. “We are pleased to broaden our offer to provide this innovative mobility solution to more customers.”

The new size is ideal for skid steer machines that require the smaller 10-inch dimension and features an all-terrain tread pattern for use on a wide range of surfaces rental fleets, construction and agriculture applications encounter. With the new size, the Michelin Tweel Technologies now offers sizes that support the majority of skid steer machines on the market, Michelin said.

Additionally, the 10N16.5 has a 31/32-inch tread depth with a 10/32-inch undertread for ease of retreading, and the 177-pound tire can support a 3,700-pound maximum load per tire, the tiremaker adds.

Jack Olney, director of sales for Michelin Tweel Technologies, will also discuss the new product from 5:30–5:50 p.m. on Oct. 19, at Booth 2036 (B Wing) during the Green Industry & Equipment Expo at the Kentucky Expo Center in Louisville.
