Toughing it out with TerraTyre
Earthmoving Equipment Magazine|October - November 2024
TerraTyre was born out of a necessity in the Australian mining industry for a hard-wearing and hardworking tyre to meet the rigorous needs for performance, durability and economy.
Toughing it out with TerraTyre

With increasing cost pressures on mining and trucking operations throughout Australia's toughest regions, it's no wonder that mine owners, transport operators and contractors are always looking for tyres that perform well but don't break the bank.

Enter TerraTyre

As OTR General Manager - Sales, Travis Parsons, explains, there are many challenging conditions on and around mine sites, and Australia's tough outback conditions punish tyres "like almost nowhere else on earth".

"Faced with this challenge, TerraTyre was developed primarily for mining equipment; and the high success in meeting customer expectations in that market was the catalyst to extend the design concept to additional configurations for other vehicle applications," he said.

"Mine sites in Western Australia needed tyres that did the job for a certain cost and this was where the first design came from. The design immediately proved to be successful.

"The design of the TerraTyre range was targeted at the heavy machinery market to operate at an attractive value point.
