The Michelin X Works Z commercial tire is used in wheeled construction equipment, primarily dump trucks. It is installed on the steering axle. At the same time, the French manufacturer allows the use of this model on the steering axle. It is characterized by increased reliability, high efficiency on paved and unpaved roads, and a long service life.
Robust design
In the development of the tire, much attention was paid to ensuring maximum reliability. To achieve this, the sidewalls received an additional layer of compound resistant to mechanical damage. In turn, the carcass is a multi-layered steel cord that withstands even the most significant impact without any problems.
Improved off-road performance
The tread pattern of the tire has a "highway" design. Nevertheless, off-road, the tire retains good performance. This is due to the increased width and depth of the drainage grooves, which form high and long edges, allowing the tire to effectively grip the unpaved surface. It is worth noting the presence of numerous blocks in the central part, which improve traction off-road.
Possibility of extending the service life
The reinforced carcass design, combined with the two-layer tread, also provides another significant advantage of the tire. Its service life can be extended multiple times. Moreover, by several methods - re-grooving or installing a new tread.
