    DANVERS, Mass. (April 12, 2016) — Maxam Tire North America Inc. has launched the MS708 solid OTR tire line for use in waste, recycling, mining, and other extreme applications.

    The MS708 is manufactured using a three-stage, all-natural rubber construction process, without the use of crumb rubber or friction base materials, the company said. The tire is designed with a traction pattern and wide footprint.

    “The Maxam Tire engineering team designed the MS708 to address and overcome the ride complaints commonly associated with solid OTR tires,” said John Overing, Maxam's North America sales director.

     

    “The addition of the low durometer center compound and specialized aperture design provides a ride comparable to a foam fill pneumatic tire while offering three to five times the tread life.”  

    The patent-pending MS708 Loader Pro is designed to fit standard 25-in.-rim-diameter earthmover wheels for loaders and articulated trucks. The tire is available from both of Maxam's U.S. distribution centers — located in Long Beach, Calif., and Memphis, Tenn. — as well as through Maxam's container direct program, the company said.

    Danvers-based Maxam North America is a subsidiary of Maxam Tire International Ltd. of Birmingham, England, a supplier of industrial and OTR tires engineered in Europe and produced in Asia.
