Apollo Tyres Ltd made a significant mark at Bauma ConExpo India 2024, unveiling innovative radial tyres designed for the construction, defence, and heavy-duty machinery sectors. Among the highlights were Apollo Terra Pro 1045, the first steel-belted radial tyre for backhoe loaders in India, and Apollo Terra MPT 1, an all-steel radial tyre tailored for defence applications and multipurpose trucks.

The Apollo Terra Pro 1045 was developed based on extensive customer feedback, focusing on puncture resistance, traction in both directions, and performance across varied underfoot conditions. It features a unique tread pattern with multiple biting edges and self-cleaning capabilities, ensuring reduced slippage in both wet and dry conditions.

The tyre’s radial construction offers significant advantages, including:

  • Better fuel efficiency due to lower rolling resistance.
  • High wear and cut resistance for improved mileage.
  • Smoother ride quality thanks to flexible sidewalls that absorb shocks and vibrations.
  • Enhanced puncture resistance with a steel belt under the tread.

The Apollo Terra MPT 1 is an all-steel radial tyre designed for defence applications and multipurpose trucks. Known for its durability and reliability in challenging environments, it features a self-cleaning tread pattern ideal for off-road use while ensuring a quiet and comfortable ride on highways. The tyre’s durable compound and all-steel radial carcass provide superior traction, wear resistance, and stability on varied terrains like stones, sand, and soil.
