LY053 On-and Off-Highway Drive

Application
On-and-Off Highway Drive-Axle Operations

An aggressive, drive-axle radial for off-road use, the LY053 is ideal for use in logging, construction, or rock and quarry operations, with some very short on-highway use possible. The LY053 is an excellent choice for on-and-off road surfaces. It is designed primarily to deliver good tire mileage in applications that require outstanding traction and cutting/chipping resistance.

Features and Benefits

  • Aggressive lug design with large blocks at tread center provides excellent traction and braking on rough roads with mud or gravel and is self-cleaning for ease of maintenance.

  • Wide tread footprint combined with a 31/32'' tread depth ensures excellent tire mileage.

  • Thick undertread protects against cuts for excellent retreadability.

  • Newly developed steel-cord top belt helps protect against penetration damage and rust while minimizing tread distortion and heat generation.

  • Special tread compounds resist fatigue, chipping and scaling in rugged off-road conditions.
