The SH211 R-4 is designed for small excavators in the 1-5 ton class, including models like CAT 301-305, Komatsu PC30-50, Kubota KX series, and Yanmar VIO series. Its R-4 tread pattern provides excellent traction and anti-skid properties needed for construction and municipal engineering applications. The tire is specifically engineered for the weight and torque characteristics of compact excavators commonly used in urban construction sites across South America.

The SH211 R-4 delivers reliable performance on construction sites, municipal engineering projects, and soil development operations. Its tread design provides good traction on loose soil, gravel, and uneven terrain commonly encountered in urban infrastructure projects. The anti-skid properties ensure safe operation on wet or slippery surfaces, which is particularly important for municipal work in rainy conditions. The tire also offers good stability when excavators are working on sloped terrain.

The SH211 R-4 delivers competitive tread life in small excavator applications, typically lasting 1,500-2,500 hours depending on operating conditions and surface types. In construction and municipal applications where surfaces vary from soil to asphalt, the R-4 compound provides good wear resistance. Regular tire rotation and proper inflation pressure (as specified for your excavator model) can extend tread life by 15-20%. The tire also supports retreading for extended total service life.

Yes, the SH211 R-4 is well-suited for mixed-use applications involving both soil excavation and occasional travel on paved surfaces. The R-4 tread pattern strikes a balance between off-road traction and on-road stability, making it ideal for small excavators that move between job sites. Unlike aggressive lug patterns that wear quickly on pavement, the SH211 R-4 design minimizes uneven wear when transitioning between soil and paved surfaces, common in municipal and construction projects.

To order SH211 R-4 tires for delivery to South American countries, contact our export team with your excavator models and required quantities. Standard sizes for small excavators include 12-16.5, 15.5-25, and 17.5-25, with other sizes available upon request. Shipping to major ports (Santos, Callao, San Antonio, Cartagena) takes 30-45 days from China. Volume discounts are available for fleet operators ordering 20+ tires. We recommend maintaining a safety stock of 2-4 tires per active excavator.
