Available in New Zealand through TRS Tyre & Wheel Ltd, Mitas HCM tyres are designed for ultimate versatility and performance across various terrains

Mitas HCM (High Capacity Municipal) are universal tyres designed to work on various terrains mounted on different machines and applications. HCM tyres feature a unique cascade tread lug design ensuring better traction in snow, muddy, and wet conditions and providing optimal self-cleaning properties. The HCM range is available through TRS, from 18- to 42-inch rim diameter.

“Mitas HCM tyres can be used on all terrains, including paved roads, from agricultural transport to municipal services and load handling work,” says Mark Prentice, national sales manager for TRS.

“We see them used here in a lot of agro-industrial applications, such as roadside mowing. The Mitas brand has become very strong with many of the major tractor brands and has become the tyre brand of choice for machines coming into New Zealand.

“A strength in Mitas is its reliability and trust with New Zealand farmers, proven over many years. TRS are so confident in the Mitas brand that we have extended the warranty on all Mitas radial tractor tyres out to 10 years, including the HCM.”

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

The steel belted radial construction and unique tread design in the central part of the tyre give the HCM range high durability with long service life and good steering characteristics, even at high speeds. This tread along with the differing lug width on the tyre’s shoulders gives them exceptional traction characteristics on a variety of surfaces, says TRS.

TRS Tyre & Wheel, New Zealand’s largest importer and distributor of agricultural and industrial tyres and wheels, has a wide range of Mitas and Trelleborg tyres available in New Zealand. TRS provides complete customer solutions, with more than 30 years of experience in wheel manufacturing services.

The accumulated points can then be redeemed for items from a catalogue of more than 500 quality rewards. These are available from an online store and delivered straight to a customer’s door. Seven premium categories of awards include electronics, fashion, sports and leisure, jewellery, and watches featuring top brands. The rewards programme reflect Trelleborg’s ongoing dedication to offering excellence through performance: Choose performance, earn rewards.
