Magna Tyres Unveils M-CRANE Line with Class-Leading Load Rating

Targeting the high-strain operational requirements of heavy construction and rigging fleets, specialized developer Magna Tyres has launched its next-generation mobile crane tire: the Magna M-CRANE. The heavy-duty asset is engineered to deliver enhanced vehicle tracking stability during high-speed road transit and heavy lifting setups.

The core differentiator of the M-CRANE line is its official ETRTO approval for a class-leading 178F Load/Speed Index in size 445/95R25. This high classification baseline means the tire can handle extreme weight distributions while resisting structural breakdown.

Lowering Total Cost of Ownership on Industrial Jobsites

For commercial tire distributors and heavy-duty fleet maintenance facilities, the tire's layout specifically counteracts standard OTR service bay failure modes:

  • Thermal Management: The tread architecture reduces interior heat generation over long-distance haulage, protecting casing integrity.
  • Deflection Control: Reinforced sidewalls deliver high lateral stability during stationary crane lifting operations, mitigating rolling and tire squirm under extreme counterweight loads.
  • Warranty Coverage: Reflecting its durable build quality, Magna backs the new industrial tire range with a 5-year limited warranty.

The Magna M-CRANE is now available for commercial order fulfillment across Canada in two core industry sizes: 385/95R25 (170F) and 445/95R25 (178F), giving infrastructure fleets a dedicated asset engineered to reduce unscheduled jobsite downtime.
