In the demanding environments of open-pit mines, protecting expensive OTR tires is critical for operational efficiency. Tyre protection chains like the 35/65-33 model are engineered to withstand extreme abrasion from crushed stone. These chains are not just for open-pit mining; they also excel on CAT 986 loaders and massive machines like the WA 900.
Key Specifications and Compatibility
The 29.25-25 is designed for heavy loaders. For example, the 45/65-45 repair ring model offers a balanced 35/65 tread pattern that reduces slippage. Common sizes also include 60/80-57 to fit a wide range of equipment from CAT 988 to CAT 994.
Applications Across Industries
- Cement Plants and Quarries: 35/65-33 Cement Plant Tyre Protection Chains resist cuts from granite in quarry.
- Underground Mining: 35/65-33 OTR chains provide grip in low-clearance drifts, protecting tires from metal debris.
- Large Loaders: CAT 992 benefit from 45/65-45 tire protection chain for maximum durability.
Repair and Maintenance
Even the best chains need occasional service. Repair rings are available for all pewag systems, including the 55/80-57. Using genuine repair link ensures proper fit. Regular inspection of tyre protection chain links and ring-ring connections prevents unexpected downtime.
