Hercules Tire & Rubber Co. has rolled out its first commercial highway tire to its Ironman line-up – the Ironman All Country CHT commercial highway traction rib tire.
“We’ve been broadening the Ironman offering over the past couple of years to make the brand a complete solution for our dealers – so they always have an Ironman brand tire to do the job. The expansion has been very thoughtful and tied directly to what we are hearing from our customers, and as such, it’s been very successful,” said Jedd Emans, the tiremaker’s vice president of marketing.
The tire is designed for the frequent starts, stops and turns of commercial vehicles and is M+S rated, Hercules said.
A continuous shoulder rib fights irregular wear, and helps increase tread life and improves steering response, while a robust buttress and sidewall protect against curbside abrasions and scuffing, the tiremaker said.
Additionally, the tire features an optimized tread pattern that reduces noise for a more comfortable ride, the tiremaker adds.
The Ironman All Country CHT is available in the U.S. in 11 LT-designated sizes covering 16- to 18-inch wheel diameters through American Tire Distributors (ATD).
