FAQ
What equipment is the SH312 E-3/L-3 OTR tire suitable for in construction sites?
The SH312 E-3/L-3 is designed for wheel loaders and earthmoving equipment on large construction projects across South America. It fits CAT 966-988 series, Komatsu WA380-800, and Volvo L120-L350 loaders commonly found on infrastructure projects in Argentina and Chile.
How does the SH312 resist cuts and punctures in steel mill environments?
The SH312 is engineered with a cut-resistant compound for steel mill applications where sharp metal debris is a constant hazard. The wide tread provides a larger contact area distributing heavy steel loads, reducing localized stress. In steel mills across Brazil and Argentina, it demonstrates exceptional resistance to cuts from scrap metal and slag.
What is the tread life of SH312 in South American mining conditions?
The SH312 delivers competitive tread life, typically 3,000-4,500 hours depending on conditions. In copper mines (Chile, Peru), the cut-resistant compound preserves tread depth despite sharp ore. In iron ore operations (Brazil), the wide tread ensures even wear. Regular tire rotation and proper inflation can extend tread life by 15-20%.
How to order SH312 OTR tires for delivery to Peru and Chile?
To order SH312 tires for delivery to Peru (Callao, Matarani ports) or Chile (San Antonio, Antofagasta ports), contact our export team. Standard sea freight takes 30-45 days from China. Volume discounts are available for mining operations ordering 20+ tires per shipment.
Is the SH312 suitable for both mining and construction applications?
Yes, the SH312 E-3/L-3 is versatile enough for both mining and construction applications. Its horizontal block pattern provides traction on loose soil and gravel in construction, while the cut-resistant compound protects against sharp ore in mining. This versatility makes it a cost-effective choice for mixed-use fleets across South America.
