Oliver Rubber Co. has launched XS-T, a drive position precure retread for severe on/off road applications. XS-T is designed for single axle and tandem axle off-road applications such as logging and mining.
“XS-T is our latest specialty retread and is designed for 70% or more off-road conditions,” says Philip Boarts, Oliver product category manager. “The retread provides excellent traction due to its raised block sculpture.”
The XS-T accepts chains and can be used with many casing types and it has a self-cleaning tread design. It is currently available in 230 mm and 240 mm sizes; a 220 mm size will come in the third quarter of 2013.
The XS-T includes Oliver’s exclusive VDI plus tread feature that acts as a visual depth indicator, plus it resists the retention of road debris and helps in the enforcement of pull points.
