New Portmax PM 90 tyre to debut at Bauma 2016

BKT’s latest tyre for port logistics applications, the radial Portmax PM 90, which is specially designed for reach stackers, will make its debut at Bauma 2016, in Munich, Germany, April 11-17

Bauma, is the world’s lreading trade fair for construction machinery, building material machines, mining machines, construction vehicles and construction equipment and is the the perfect occasion for BKT to present its latest developments for port logistics.

Among these is the brand new Portmax PM 90, an all-steel radial tyre, with multi-ply steel belts, specially designed for reach stackers in container handling operations in port areas.

Strength, resistance and durability are the key features of this tyre that ensures maximum stability, an essential requirement in heavy load handling operations. The steel-belted all-steel casing provides extraordinary strength and an excellent load distribution on the supporting surface , distinctive features making the Portmax PM 90 an industrial handling tyre par excellence.

For this specific tyre, BKT has developed a special tread compound, which extends the product life-cycle as it is particularly resistant against impacts, cuts and wear. As a result, the Portmax PM 90 needs to be replaced less frequently.

Moreover, the low rolling resistance helps to significantly reduce fuel consumption resulting in cost savings – a brilliant example of sustainability in the intermodal transport sector.

The Portmax PM 90 will be displayed in the size 18.00 R 25 at BAUMA 2016, at the BKT stand (Hall A6, Stand 225).
