Mobile cranes are used to lift, lower and move heavy objects from one place to another. Mobile crane tyres require excellent load capability and stability. Magna Tyres developed crane tyres which are designed for the best comfort and durability on highway and off-road crane applications.
Mobile cranes can be used widely. They often operate in construction or industrial applications to carry and move heavy loads. The big advantage of mobile cranes is that they are not permanently fixed to the ground. Mobile cranes are able to perform in high-speed applications for example when operating in highway applications. Furthermore, mobile cranes can be divided into different categories. Similarly, there are rough terrain cranes and all-terrain cranes which are able to perform on the most demanding off road applications.
Through a combination of simple machines, mobile cranes are able to both raise and lower objects, as well as moving them horizontally. Mobile cranes can be easily moved from one location to the next, making it a cost-effective option for many construction projects. The mast is supported by a large, heavy base, which helps offset the weight that mobile cranes hold at higher heights. At the top of the mast, there is a slewing unit, consisting of a gear and motor which allows the mobile crane to rotate and drive, even at high-speeds.
The experts of Magna Tyres have dedicated several years of research and testing, in order to offer the best product on the market that would meet all of your needs. We have a specially engineered compound and a designed treat pattern to provide:
For operating in extreme weights and heights, load capacity and stability are important requirements for the tyres underneath mobile cranes. Thanks to the special design of our mobile crane tyres, we offer maximum stability and even load distribution throughout all of your operations.

What load capacity do mobile crane tyres require for heavy lifting operations?
Mobile crane tyres must support both crane weight and lifted loads whilst maintaining stability. Modern tyres offer load/speed indices up to 178F, handling 7,500 kg at 80 km/h. Common sizes include 445/95R25 and 385/95R25, providing maximum load capacity for all-terrain and rough-terrain cranes.
How do crane tyres perform on both highway and off-road construction sites?
All-steel radial construction delivers high-speed highway stability whilst reinforced shoulders provide traction on challenging off-road terrain. Special pattern structures reduce vibrations during road transport and ensure grip on uneven surfaces. Wide footprints distribute weight evenly, essential for precision lifting operations.
What factors affect mobile crane tyre longevity in demanding applications?
Advanced belt wrap technology and semi-closed shoulder designs extend service life by reducing heat build-up and promoting even wear. Reinforced sidewalls lower deflection under extreme loads. Special crane compounds offer shorter braking distances whilst resisting tread cracking and groove stress fatigue.
Which tyre sizes are most common for all-terrain and rough-terrain cranes?
Popular sizes include 445/95R25 for larger all-terrain cranes, 385/95R25 and 385/95R24 for medium-capacity equipment, and 525/80R25 for heavy-duty applications. Size selection depends on crane capacity, lifting height requirements and operational environment characteristics.
