Bridgestone adds 4-star fitment to VSNT range

Bridgestone has expanded its VSNT (V-Steel N-Traction) off-road tyre line-up with the introduction of a four-star rated version, the 35/65R33 VSNT 4*. The tyre has been specifically developed for underground haulage operations by today’s heavier shuttle trucks. The four-star rating enables the tyre to better accommodate the higher load capacity per air volume required by smaller tyre sizes used due to the constraints of tunnel dimensions.

“Thanks to its ongoing global research and development programme, Bridgestone is able to provide its customers with the right product for the evolving needs of the industry,” commented Lothar Schmitt, director agricultural and off-the-Road tyres at Bridgestone Europe.
