Continental Tire the Americas’ (Continental) Commercial Vehicle Tire group has unveiled a new on/off- road drive tire for severe service applications.
The tire offers a specialized diamond lug tread design, on/off-road belt package and 32/32” tread depth. It is designed specifically for severe conditions that fit the demands of construction applications. This tire is a benchmark for vehicles that require maximum traction, extra sidewall protection, and resistance to stone penetration and chain damage.
To make the tire more suitable for off-road environments, the on/off-road belt package has a shoulder to shoulder, full width fourth belt. This increases stiffness and provides more protection from penetrations to improve durability. The diamond lug tread design combines rotating angles and stone bumpers to maximize stone ejection and is optimal for chaining. Additionally, the full inch deep tread will keep the tire gripping in all conditions.
HDC1 HT is offered in 11R22.5 and the 11R24.5 and is the 12th tire to be built on the Conti 3G Casing. The tire is available now in both sizes.
