Techking has introduced its first tubeless mining tire.
The Chinese manufacturer says it released a size 12.00R24 mining pattern. Advantages it reports over comparable tube-type tires are higher air retention from the high-grade butyl liner compared with that of an inner tube, less heat generation and better heat release, a lighter overall weight and more convenient mounting and dismounting.
The manufacturer also offers its new 12.00R24 tubeless tire as part of a combined tire/rim package, and it says a “green subsidy” is on offer for operators undertaking a first time conversion from tube type tires to tubeless. (Tyres & Accessories)
