The MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire

The MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire

Delivering enhanced safety, productivity and comfort, the tire is the partner that ensures success on large-scale worksites.

 

With two cabs, as many as ten drive and steer axles, the ability to lift up to 1,200 tonnes, and a maximum speed of 80 km/h on the road, all-terrain mobile cranes must be capable of driving long distances both on and off the road, maneuvering in confined spaces and carrying heavy loads. As a result, their tires are subject to the most extreme conditions of use, to which Michelin has responded with its new MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire.

The new MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire integrates all the benefits of the MICHELIN X-CRANE tire and has optimized them in the following areas:

  • Improved safety. The new MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire enhances safety by improving the geometry of the tire/rim contact area . As a result, mounting and dismounting tires is safer and faster, leading also to operating gains.
  • Greater productivity. Thanks to a new rubber compound in the tread, the MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire lasts up to 20% longer . The new MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire integrates C2 technology. This latest-generation casing reduces heat build-up in the shoulders when in use and thus extends longevity. In addition, the steel cables have been made more resistant.
  • Greater comfort. The MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire generates fewer vibrations thanks to a more rigid tread compound that wears more evenly. This improvement is vitally important for drivers when the cranes are used on the road.
  • Enhanced environmental performance. Because it is longer lasting and can be regrooved, the new MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire guarantees longer service life while requiring fewer raw materials in its manufacture. What’s more, it is produced in ISO 14001-certified plants whose environmental impact has been reduced by more than 16% since 2005.

The new MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire has an F speed rating (80 km/h) and retains all the benefits of the MICHELIN X-CRANE tire, in particular a braking distance that sets the industry standard. Its asymmetrical tread design guarantees that it can be used on roads as well as in and around worksites, with small blocks in the center that enhance comfort and steering accuracy and large blocks on the outside that deliver traction on soft terrain.

The MICHELIN X-CRANE + tire is available in the following sizes:
- 385/95 R25
- 445/95 R25
- 525/80 R25
