2. INTRODUCING THE NEW ALLIANCE 550
Series
THE KEY USP:
MULTIPLE USE
MULTI TERRAIN OPERATION
MULTI MACHINE APPLICATION
LARGE FOOT PRINT
SELF CLEANING
3. The New MULTIUSE 550 Series
MULTIUSE 550 series has been developed for specific applications on Industrial
tractors, Backhoe loaders, Municipality and Industrial tractors, Tractors dealing
mostly with transport on hard surfaces and Compact construction machinery
Specific blocks tread design enables high performances on snow-covered terrains,
as well as on sandy terrains. Basic directional lugs design, divided by separated
blocks, provides a good grip on soft surfaces.
High number of blocks and rubber to void tread ratio, enable long tread wear life and
low rolling resistances during transport operation on
hard surfaces.
Uniform ground pressure distribution and tread wear are provided by steel belted
carcass structure. In addition, steel belts shield provides
the most efficient puncture protection.

9. The MULTIUSE 550 Foot Print’s
Advantage
Benefits of the larger footprint
area:
The lower average ground pressure eliminates the
problems faced by tractor tires while driving on
softer terrains.
Enhances the vehicle’s overall stability and
enables it to work efficiently on slopes which is
important for machines like municipality tractors
and construction machineries. Contributes to
lower and uniform tread wear which results into
longer tire life.
10. Benefits of the rectangular footprint area:
The Radial tire construction provides all key
benefits like higher traction, longer tread life,
higher machine productivity as well as lower
soil compaction.
Uniform distribution of ground pressure.
Provides better pattern continuity and higher
comfort characteristics such as reduced
vibration and lower noise levels.
