Magna Tyres has announced it will unveil two new mining tread patterns at Bauma 2022 – the Magna MU30 and Magna MA60.
The Magna MU30 mining pattern will be introduced for underground trucks and wheel loaders and includes several new features such as large lugs and a cut-resistant centre. This is expected to ensure a robust tread area and increased service life.

According to the company, there is also a specially reinforced radial casing that “provides outstanding damage resistance and load capacity”, while increased rugged sidewalls improve shock and abrasion resistance.
Magna Tyres is also planning to showcase a new OTR pattern at the event – The Magna MA60 articulated dump truck (ADT) tyre. The MA60 has a special rubber compound and robust casing that offers high resistance to damage impact. It will eventually become available in size 800/80R29.
“The Magna MA60 will offer a unique tread lug and groove to give a powerful forward and lateral traction arrangement plus superior operator comfort. Whilst a radial E3/L3 long-lasting tread ensures maximised productivity and reduced long-term operating costs,” the company said.
In February 2021, Magna Tyres extended its web portal to global customers, and in October that year, it appointed a new commercial director.
