In the demanding environments of quarries, protecting expensive OTR tires is critical for cost control. Tyre protection chains like the 70/70-57 model are engineered to withstand extreme abrasion from sharp rocks. These chains are not just for open-pit mining; they also excel on CAT 980 loaders and massive machines like the WA 800.
Key Specifications and Compatibility
The 26.5 ring-ring system is designed for wheel loaders. For example, the 55/80-57 model offers a deep 55/80 tread pattern that enhances traction. Common sizes also include 60/80-57 to fit a wide range of equipment from WA 800 to Le Tourneau L-2350.
Applications Across Industries
- Cement Plants and Quarries: 35/65-33 Cement Plant Tyre Protection Chains resist cuts from copper-zinc pyrite ores in construction.
- Underground Mining: 35/65-33 OTR chains provide grip in low-clearance drifts, protecting tires from jagged rock.
- Large Loaders: Le Tourneau L-2350 benefit from 55/80-57 tire protection chain for lower operating costs.
Repair and Maintenance
Even the best chains need occasional service. Repair rings are available for all rud systems, including the 58/85-57. Using genuine repair link ensures proper fit. Regular inspection of tire protection chain links and weld points prevents unexpected downtime.
Why Choose Quality Chains?
Investing in 35/65-33 tire chains from trusted brands like erlau delivers reliable protection across quarries. Whether you operate a WA 800 or a CAT 972, the right tyre protection chain is essential for protecting assets.
