Goodyear has launched a new Cooper Work Series RHT 2 tire that promises better fuel efficiency and longer durability in high-abrasion applications.
The tire is SmartWay certified and is ideal for tandem and spreader axle trailers, says Cooper.
“Reliability and durability are top priorities for fleet operators when selecting a tire that meets the unique needs of regional trailers,” said Tom Lippello, senior director of trade marketing for Goodyear North America. “This new line of Work Series trailer tires allows fleets to navigate difficult roads with confidence while maintaining efficient business operations.”
The tire is available in eight sizes. Its features include: a tread compound with low rolling resistance and high abrasion resistance; Four full-width, heavy-duty steel belts provide durability in splay axle applications and improve carcass retreadability; a tread and shoulder pattern that minimizes tearing under heavy wear; and a visual wear indicator that helps determine remaining tread life.
