ATLAPEX AP988 OTR Tire for Mining Trucks – Engineered to Conquer Severe Rocky Terrain & Prevent Downtime

Detail Information

Engineered for Severe Terrain: Core Performance You Can Trust

The AP988 is precision-engineered to conquer the unforgiving challenges of mining truck operations, with three key performance features tailored for severe rocky and mining surfaces:

Superior Wear Resistance: Crafted with a high-durability, specialized rubber compound, the AP988 minimizes wear even during prolonged use on abrasive rocky terrain. This extends tire service life significantly, reducing replacement frequency and lowering maintenance costs—critical for mining trucks operating long distances between quarry and unloading sites.

Exceptional Puncture & Cut Resistance: A rugged, reinforced tread structure forms a robust barrier against sharp rocks, debris, and jagged surfaces common in mining areas. This design effectively prevents punctures and cuts that cause costly unplanned downtime, ensuring your mining trucks stay operational and on schedule.

Tread Chunking Prevention: The tire’s optimized tread pattern and reinforced lug design resist tread chunking, even under heavy payloads and repeated impact with rocky surfaces. This maintains consistent traction and structural integrity, avoiding premature tire failure and maximizing operational efficiency.

Ideal for mining rigid dump trucks, the AP988 is specifically tailored to handle the demands of long-distance transportation in mining operations, balancing heavy-load capacity with smooth performance to minimize equipment fatigue and boost overall productivity.


Features:

Versatile Application Across Heavy-Duty Equipment

Beyond mining trucks, the AP988’s robust design ensures versatility across a wide range of special heavy-duty vehicles, making it a cost-effective solution for diverse mining and construction fleets. Its applications include:

Front crane, Gantry crane, Loader, Grader, Mobile crane, Front loader, Wheel loader, Backhoe loader, and Dumper.

This multi-equipment compatibility eliminates the need for separate tire sourcing, streamlines inventory management, and reduces procurement complexity—delivering greater convenience and cost-efficiency for your business.

Premium Global Materials: The Foundation of Uncompromising Quality

At ATLAPEX, exceptional tire performance starts with exceptional raw materials. The AP988 is crafted exclusively with best-in-class components sourced from the world’s top suppliers, ensuring consistent durability and reliability in even the harshest mining environments:

Natural Rubber: Sourced exclusively from Malaysia & Thailand, renowned for superior elasticity, resilience, and resistance to cracking—critical for withstanding the heavy loads and constant impact of mining truck operations.

Carbon Black (Cabot, USA): Imported from Cabot (USA) to enhance the tire’s tensile strength, wear resistance, and overall durability, ensuring it stands up to continuous abrasion on rocky terrain.

Butyl Polymers (ExxonMobil Chemical, USA): Supplied by ExxonMobil Chemical (USA) to improve air retention and tire integrity, maintaining stable pressure even during long-distance hauling and heavy-load operations—guaranteeing consistent performance.
