Technology
Goodyear OTR tires feature a broad selection of cutting-edge innovations and advanced technologies to help improve performance across a wide variety of applications.
STABILITY & DURABILITY
DURAWALL® TECHNOLOGY
Goodyear's toughest sidewall construction for lateral stiffness, cut protection and casing durability in haulage applications such as surface mining, construction and quarry.
HI-STABILITY TECHNOLOGY
Innovative radial sidewall construction provides enhanced lateral stability, reducing bucket sway and increasing driver confidence in underground mining, construction, and quarry loading operations.
SMOOTH GUARD TECHNOLOGY®
Extra thick and smooth rubber layer protection in the shoulder and sidewall of the tire provides increased robustness to improve cut resistance and casing protection for compact wheel loaders and small grader operators.
ENHANCED PRODUCTIVITY
MAXWORK TECHNOLOGY™
Goodyear's best temperature-control casing components maximize TKPH and productivity by reducing heat for cool running in haulage applications.
NEVER-FLAT CONFIDENCE
PERMAFOAM TECHNOLOGY
Goodyear's Permafoam Technology is a sponge-like foam core that provides non-pneumatic capability to keep vehicles moving and operators comfortable. It is ideal for underground mining operations that require enhanced load-carrying capacity in challenging conditions.
INNOVATING FOR THE FUTURE
ELECTRIC DRIVE READY
As more alternative-fuel vehicles are being developed, Goodyear engineers are optimizing tire design to meet the unique operational requirements of this equipment including torque, range, and load carrying capacity.
INNOVATION CENTERS
Our two Innovation Centers in Akron, Ohio, and Colmar-Berg, Luxembourg, strive to develop state-of-the-art products and services that set the technology and performance standard for the industry.
PROVING GROUNDS TESTING
Goodyear's Proving Grounds facility in San Angelo, Texas is vital to our innovative product development process. Situated on aver 7,200 acres, the facility includes an assortment of tracks and test labs with over 50 different test surfaces. More than 20,000 aviation, OTR, commercial and consumer tires are tested annually.
