Hercules Introduces New Ironman I-Series Patterns

Hercules Tire & Rubber Co. has added three new patterns to its Ironman I-Series medium truck lineup.
The new patterns include two new all-position tires – the Ironman I-402 Wide Base Mixed Service A/P and Ironman I-502 Premium Deep Tread A/P – and one tire for trailer applications – the Ironman I-480 Trailer Rib.
The Ironman I-402 Wide Base Mixed Service A/P is designed for work trucks with a tear-resistant compound and deep tread for on- and off-road applications, Hercules said. The tiremaker said tread also yields longer mileage. The tire is currently available in four LRJ sizes – 315/80R22.5, 385/65R22.5, 425/65R22.5, 445/65R22.5 – and a 315/80R22.5 LRM is expected to be available by the end of the year.

The Ironman I-502 Premium Deep Tread A/P is designed for both steer and trailer applications and will be available in nine SKUs, including high-volume sizes and LRM sizes. The tire features a five-rib design that is great for mileage and shoulder wear resistance on steer axle use, the tiremaker said. Additionally, it has a deep tread for longer mileage in high scrub applications and solid wide shoulder for durability and even wear.
The Ironman I-480 Trailer Rib adds the 11R24.5/14 and 11R24.5/16 sizes to the lineup for short and long haul trailer applications. The tires’ five-rib tread pattern allows for long mileage and shoulder wear resistance and solid shoulders and four wide grooves assist with wet and dry traction, Hercules said.
Most of the new Ironman lineup SKUs are now available, the company said.
