Schwarzmuller chooses Apollo Tyres for truck trailers

Schwarzmüller has selected three tyres for winter conditions from Apollo Tyres as original equipment for its truck trailers in Europe.

The EnduRace RT is said to deliver grip in wet and winter conditions and is certified for snow grip with a ‘three-peak mountain and snowflake’ mark. The tyre’s grip is claimed to be 15% better overall compared to the previous generation.

The EnduRace RT2 is expected to offer enhanced durability and reduced rolling resistance due to a tread compound that helps minimise abrasion and heat build-up. Reinforced ply casing helps improve tear resistance and retreadability.

Additionally, the EnduTrax MAHD is said to use 14% extra cushioning between the tread and belt, achieving a higher resistance to stone drilling and chipping. It is claimed to improve rubber contact by 5%, which further enhances tread rigidity and offers more mileage.

Oliver Hirning, vice president supply chain at Schwarzmüller, said: “This new partnership will allow us to offer our global customer base a range of premium performance tyres for all-season conditions.”

The tyres will be supplied in five dimensions, from 17 to 22 inches: 385/65, 385/55, 245/70, 235/75 and 385/65.
