In the harsh and demanding environment of underground mining, where heavy loads, sharp debris, and extreme operating conditions test every component to its limit, having reliable, durable tires is not just a necessity—it’s a cornerstone of safety, efficiency, and profitability. Since 2007, ATLAPEX has stood as a leading international manufacturer and distributor of specialty tires and wheels, delivering industry-defining solutions that empower mining operations worldwide to overcome challenges and maximize productivity.
Our flagship product, the Pneumatic Tire 18.00-25 L-5S Pattern for Underground Mining Use, is engineered to excel in the toughest underground scenarios, combining robust construction with innovative design to redefine reliability for underground mining equipment. Every feature of this tire is meticulously crafted to address the unique pain points of underground operations:
l Exceptional Load-Bearing Capacity: A reinforced carcass ensures the tire can withstand the heavy loading demands of underground mining equipment, maintaining structural integrity even under extreme weight and pressure, reducing downtime caused by tire failure.
l Superior Tread & Sidewall Protection: The reinforced sidewall design provides outstanding resistance to tread penetration, while our unique chafer design effectively prevents sidewall cutting—two critical features that extend tire lifespan in environments filled with sharp rocks and debris.
l Heavy-Duty Durability: The reinforced chafer design further enhances the tire’s ability to handle heavy loads, ensuring long-term performance and reducing the frequency of tire replacements, which translates to lower operational costs and higher efficiency.
