New Bandag BDLT Light Truck Tread

In this age of high fuel prices, commercial users will be pleased to learn that the new Bandag BDLT is a cost saving and reliable alternative to even the best new tyres on the market. It is an application-specific design for all wheel positions on mid-range to light trucks and vans, operating in busy city centres or covering regional distances on a variety of road types, in all seasons.

The tread is designed to deliver good traction and responsive handling in all weather conditions without sacrificing tread wear. It has been approved by customers in its target market as a top-quality and cost-saving substitute for new tyres.

Road conditions can be hazardous – even for light trucks and vans in city or regional use. These vehicles typically use a wide variety of roads, including motorways, as well as manoeuvring in yards or on small country roads. In the winter, driving surfaces can be very treacherous and drivers picking up or delivering goods need to be able to trust their tyres.

Mid-range or light truck and van owners are well aware of the savings they could make if they only had to replace their tyres once a year. This would drastically reduce their tyre stocks, boost vehicle uptime, save time, reduce their tyre purchase and maintenance budget and give them more peace of mind. The Bandag BDLT has been specifically designed and developed with these needs in mind. It is a true all-season tyre product for the light truck segment.

The BDLT is also designed to provide the comfort and smoothness that mid-range or light truck and van drivers need to do their work efficiently – allowing them to concentrate on the busy city traffic with complete peace of mind.

The Bandag compound ensures absolute safety and driving comfort. The tread lug pattern has been developed to deliver a smooth ride, while the large centre blocks improve stability.

The BDLT provides traction for all seasons and is at its best on drive axles – although it also performs well in all wheel positions. This makes the BDLT the ideal product for fleet managers looking to standardise their tyre usage and streamline their operations, while simplifying their administration and generating more savings, says Bandag.
