OEM Applications by Segment
OEM tyre specifications vary significantly between machine types and operating environments. Load distribution, duty cycles, surface conditions and machine design all influence the tyre and wheel solution required for reliable performance.
We work with equipment manufacturers across multiple industries to engineer application-specific solutions. Our approach combines technical expertise with controlled, certified processes, ensuring consistent quality across procurement, assembly and delivery. You can explore our OEM Solutions Page and review our standards and certifications, including our ISO 9001 certification.
Mining & Earthmoving
OEM fitment in mining and large earthmoving equipment requires tyres engineered for extreme loads, abrasive ground conditions and continuous operation. Machines such as articulated dump trucks, rigid dump trucks and large wheel loaders place enormous structural stress on tyre casings, sidewalls and bead areas.
Magna supplies mining OEM programmes with tyres and complete wheel assemblies designed around the machine’s axle loads, duty cycles and working environment. Tread compounds, carcass construction and rim compatibility are validated to ensure reliable performance under severe operating conditions.
For OEM manufacturers this means predictable tyre behaviour during machine testing, stable supply during production ramp-ups and full technical documentation supporting the fitment specification.
Typical OEM fitments include:
- Articulated Dump Trucks (ADT)
- Rigid Dump Trucks (RDT)
- Wheel Loaders
- Motor Graders
- Scrapers
- Dozers
- Underground Loaders
Construction Machinery
Construction equipment operates across a wide spectrum of applications, from compact machines working in confined urban environments to heavy-duty machines on infrastructure projects. OEM tyre selection must balance traction, machine stability, durability and operator comfort while supporting varying load conditions and mixed surfaces.
Magna works with construction equipment manufacturers to define tyre and wheel specifications that match the machine’s intended application. Fitments are engineered to support telehandlers, backhoes, skid steer loaders and wheeled excavators operating across construction, infrastructure and rental markets.
Tyre and wheel assemblies are supplied ready for installation on the production line, with full compatibility for machine mounting systems and axle configurations.
Typical OEM fitments include:
- Telehandlers
- Backhoe Loaders
- Skid Steer Loaders
- Motor Graders
- Wheeled Excavators

Mobile Cranes
Mobile cranes combine two demanding operational requirements: heavy lifting performance and safe travel on public roads. Tyres must therefore meet strict stability, load-bearing and regulatory standards while supporting road mobility between job sites.
Magna supports crane manufacturers with tyre solutions for all-terrain cranes, rough terrain cranes and specialised lifting equipment. Tyres are selected based on load distribution, axle configuration and crane operating profiles.
Engineering support includes matching tyre load capacity to crane lifting charts, ensuring compatibility with rim specifications and supporting OEM testing during machine development.
Typical OEM fitments include:
- All-Terrain Cranes
- Rough Terrain Cranes
- City Cranes
- Industrial Crane Carriers
Port & Terminal Equipment
Port and container terminal equipment operates under some of the highest static loads in industrial tyre applications. Machines such as reach stackers, straddle carriers and rubber tyred gantry cranes must handle heavy container loads while performing constant manoeuvring cycles.
Magna supplies tyres specifically engineered for port operations, with reinforced carcass structures and compounds designed to withstand heat generation, high loads and tight turning radius.
For OEM manufacturers this ensures equipment leaving the factory is equipped with tyres capable of maintaining performance in high-intensity container handling environments.
Typical OEM fitments include:
- Reach Stackers
- Empty Container Handlers
- Straddle Carriers
- Rubber Tyred Gantry Cranes (RTG)
- Terminal Tractors
- Harbour Cranes
- Heavy Duty Forklifts
Airport Ground Support Equipment (GSE)
Ground support equipment operates in controlled airport environments where reliability, manoeuvrability and safety are essential. Equipment such as pushback tractors, baggage tractors and cargo loaders must operate efficiently during rapid aircraft turnaround cycles.
Magna supplies tyres engineered for GSE applications where consistent traction, low rolling resistance and predictable handling characteristics are required on sealed apron surfaces.
OEM tyre specifications for airport equipment also consider operational factors such as manoeuvrability in confined spaces, wear behaviour on concrete surfaces and compatibility with specialised aircraft towing vehicles.
Typical OEM fitments include:
- Aircraft Pushback Tractors
- Aircraft Tow Tractors
- Baggage Tractors
- Cargo Loaders
- Catering Trucks
- Airport Service Vehicles
Solid Tyres for Waste & Recycling Operations
Waste processing and recycling operations expose tyres to extreme puncture risks, sharp debris and continuous heavy loads. For many machines operating in this environment, pneumatic tyres are not suitable due to the high likelihood of downtime caused by punctures.
Magna supplies solid tyre solutions designed specifically for waste handling equipment where reliability and uptime are critical. Solid tyres eliminate puncture risk entirely and provide stable load-bearing performance for machines operating in harsh recycling environments.
OEM fitments are commonly used on equipment operating in recycling facilities, waste transfer stations and scrap processing operations.
Typical OEM fitments include:
- Material Handlers
- Wheel Loaders
- Telehandlers
- Industrial Forklifts
- Waste Processing Equipment
