The SH218 R-4B with its extra-wide tread is designed for compact excavators, skid steer loaders, and compact track loader applications where flotation and traction are critical. It fits equipment like CAT 305-308 excavators, CAT 236-262 skid steers, and Bobcat S630-S850 loaders. The extra-wide footprint provides exceptional flotation on soft ground, making it ideal for construction sites, landscaping, and cross-country applications where standard-width tires would sink or lose traction.

The SH218 R-4B features an optimized tread design with enhanced self-cleaning capability. The tread pattern incorporates wider grooves and strategically angled blocks that eject mud and debris as the tire rotates. In muddy construction conditions common during South American rainy seasons, this self-cleaning action maintains consistent traction by preventing mud from packing between tread blocks. The extra-wide tread also helps the tire float on soft surfaces rather than digging in, reducing the amount of mud accumulation.

The SH218 R-4B is engineered for cross-country performance with its extra-wide tread providing superior flotation on soft terrain, sand, and mud. The aggressive tread pattern delivers the traction needed to navigate uneven off-road terrain, while the reinforced construction withstands impacts from rocks and debris. In cross-country applications such as pipeline construction, utility right-of-way maintenance, and rural infrastructure projects, this tire provides the reliability and mobility required to keep equipment moving across challenging terrain.

Yes, the SH218 R-4B is well-suited for skid steer loaders commonly used in construction and agricultural applications. Its extra-wide tread provides the flotation needed for skid steers operating on soft ground, while the traction pattern delivers the grip required for loading and pushing operations. For popular skid steer models like Bobcat S650-S850, CAT 236-272, and JCB 155-205, this tire offers excellent performance. The reinforced sidewall construction also withstands the lateral stresses common in skid steer operation.
