Cunning Innovation Simplifies Haul Truck Tire Removal

If you're keeping up with developments in the world of haul truck tires, then you're aware that there are exciting changes in the air. In case you've been too busy to keep up, however, we're here to fill in the gaps.

One of the best innovations to come across our radar recently is one that facilitates haul truck tire removal and replacement, streamlining the process for technicians while saving both time and money.

According to the Elko Daily Free Press, the crew at the Goldstrike Tire Shop recently invented a new tool that allows for a faster removal of the tedious one hundred and thirteen lug nuts required to hold a haul truck tire in place.

“We used to have to move the rad gun, which is used to loosen the lug nuts, around the wheel and get into some weird body positions,” said Chris Zeiler, the open pit tire shop supervisor. “Now, we just stand on the ground and the device moves the wheel for us.” (Elko Daily)

Described as a rotation device operated by a foot pedal, this innovative device saves time and effort on the part of the technician tasked with changing the tire. Since both time and effort are reduced, this tool will cuts down on expenses by shortening task length.

With new developments cropping up on a regular basis and more no doubt in the pipeline to be revealed in the days ahead, it's certainly an exciting time for the world of haul truck tires.
