“Mitas is entering the segment of municipal tyres. For Mitas, this is a logical step because in this segment we can utilise our experiences manufacturing construction and agricultural tyres,” said Andrew Mabin, Mitas´ marketing and sales director. “The main advantage of municipal tyres is the variability of use. The Mitas HCM tyre is a truly all-round tyre.”

Mitas HCM is a versatile tyre that can be fitted on agricultural and industrial tractors, handlers, loaders, etc. and is also suitable for agricultural, municipal, construction, forestry, etc. applications. Thanks to the D speed category (65 km/h) Mitas HCM tyres are well prepared for road transportation. Mitas HCM boasts low noise emissions and vibration, thanks to different length of pitches and their alignment along the circumference. In winter conditions, they can be equipped with spikes.

“The cascade shape of the tread lugs is a unique feature of Mitas HCM tyres. Individual tread figures are reminding steps, which supports better traction and self-cleaning properties,” said Pavel Kott, Mitas´ agricultural tyres product manager. “Cascade tread lugs are unique for Mitas HCM tyres, which makes them stand out in the offer on the market.”

The new Mitas 540/80 R 38 IND 172 A8 (167 D) HCM has a speed symbol D allowing speeds up to 65 km/h. Under 3.2 bar and speed 10 km/h it can carry loads of 7,875 kg. Mitas 540/80 R 38 HCM has a diameter of 1.83 metres.
