Komatsu Loader with Magna MA601 Tyres at Our Customer’s Landfill

Magna MA601 tyres have once again proven to be the best option. After working 3.557 MTH on a Komatsu WA470 loader, tyres in size 26.5-25 after measurements indicate the possibility of achieving the target mileage on the front axle at the level of 15.000 MTH and about 20.000 on the rear axle. The obvious difference in the rate of wear is due to the nature of the machine work and frequent slips of the front axle on slippery concrete covered by garbage waste. Magna MA601 tyres ensure continuous operation of the loader by eliminating downtime caused by frequent cuts and tears characteristic for such places. Despite the high price of solid tyres, after analysing the costs previously associated with repairs of pneumatic tyres and long standstills of the loader, customer concluded that solid tyres are the most efficient and the cheapest choice in the long run. The tread depth has also a significant advantage: it is 2.5 times higher than in pneumatic tyres even of the L5 class.
