Superior tyres now standard
October 1st 2006

Yale Europe Materials Handling has announced that Michelin's XZMTM Industrial tubeless radial tyres are now offered as standard on its counterbalance forklifts.

The design of the Michelin XZM brings a number of significant user benefits including: excellent tyre life; greater operator comfort; outstanding traction and braking and improved fuel economy. The tyres also provide added stability and resistance to sidewall damage.

The XZM's improved tread design and greater tread depth result in an increase in tyre life. More 'rubber on the road' leads to improved traction and better braking, while the casing of the XZM is made from a single ply of steel cords that do not scrub or rub for cooling running.
