KMA40-New is a radial truck tyre designed for all axle positions on trucks operating under mixed on-road and off-road conditions. The tread pattern is engineered for resistance to chipping, cutting and abrasion, with a stone rejection design that prevents aggregate from lodging in the groove bottom and damaging the casing. 3 mm supports extended service life and retreadability.
What KMA40-New Is Built For
KMA40-New is a radial truck tyre designed for all axle positions on trucks operating under mixed on-road and off-road conditions. The tread pattern is engineered for resistance to chipping, cutting and abrasion, with a stone rejection design that prevents aggregate from lodging in the groove bottom and damaging the casing. The deep tread depth of 18.3 mm supports extended service life and retreadability. It is available in two sizes, 11R22.5 and 11R24.5, both with 16 ply rating, and is suitable for general freight, construction, quarry, and agricultural haulage where durability and casing protection are critical.
Manufacturer Feature Claims
- Suitable for All Position Axle of Trucks Under All Kinds of Working Conditions
- Chip,cut and abrasion resistance tread compound
- Stone rejection design protects groove bottom from stone puncture
- Deep tread depth increases mileage and service life
Key Benefits
- Chip, cut and abrasion resistance tread compound extends tread life on rough surfaces
- Stone rejection design prevents trapped aggregate from damaging the groove bottom and belt package
- 18.3 mm tread depth increases mileage and supports multiple retreads
- Suitable for all axle positions on trucks under mixed on and off road conditions
- 16 ply rating provides consistent load capacity across both sizes and axle positions
Problems It Solves
- Tread chipping and cutting on rough terrain reduce casing life and increase replacement frequency
- Stones lodged in groove bottoms can work through to the belt, causing early casing failure
- Using different tyres for different axle positions increases stock complexity and fitting time
- Shallow tread depth limits retreadability and reduces total service life per casing
- Lack of a single pattern for all axles forces multiple SKUs and higher inventory costs
Who It Is For
- Tyre importers sourcing mixed container loads for distributors in mixed-surface markets
- Fleet operators replacing tyres that fail due to stone punctures or tread damage
- Distributors needing a single pattern that covers front, drive and trailer axles
- Contractors buying tyres by the container for on-site or regional operations
- Government buyers procuring tyres for public works fleets with varied road conditions
Application Scenarios
- Freight trucks running from urban distribution centres to gravel access roads and back
- Construction site haul trucks moving materials over unsealed access routes and paved highways
- Quarry and mining support vehicles operating on graded haul roads and tarmac
- Agricultural transport vehicles carrying heavy loads on dirt feeder roads and paved routes
- Fleets requiring one tyre pattern for all axles to simplify inventory and fitting
Technical Features
- Radial truck tyre construction with 16 ply rating for all listed sizes
- Tread compound designed for resistance to chipping, cutting and abrasion
- Stone rejection profile in the groove bottom to eject trapped aggregate under deflection
- 18.3 mm norm tread depth across both 11R22.5 and 11R24.5 sizes
- Standard rim size 8.25 for both listed sizes, compatible with common truck wheel standards
- All positions axle suitability for front, drive and trailer axles on trucks

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Standard highway truck tyres
KMA40-New has a deeper tread and stone rejection design, which improves casing life on unsealed roads but may reduce rolling efficiency on paved surfaces
Compared With Dedicated off-road tyres
KMA40-New offers better on-road performance and lower noise than deep-lug off-road patterns, but may not match their traction in soft mud or extreme off-road conditions
Compared With Single-axle pattern tyres
Using one pattern for all axles reduces inventory and fitting complexity, but may not be optimal for each axle’s specific load and wear profile
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to your actual axle load; 16PR is fixed for both sizes listed
- Check the standard rim size 8.25 against your wheel; both sizes use the same rim width
- Inflate to 830 kPa for both dual and single fitment as specified in the size table
- Monitor tread wear and rotate tyres before irregular wear sets in, especially on fleets with one-way loads
- Inspect groove bottoms after off-road cycles to remove lodged stones and protect the casing
KMA40-New Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 11R22.5 or 11R24.5 typically fills at container weight rather than volume, so the practical minimum is one container. Mixed loads across sizes and patterns are accepted.
What is the lead time?
It depends on whether the size is in stock at the plant or has to be produced. We confirm current availability with the plant at the time of quotation rather than quoting a standard figure.
Which sizes are available?
11R22.5 and 11R24.5, both with 16 ply rating. Full load index, rim and pressure data for each is in the size table on this page.
Can you supply DOT or ECE marked tyres?
Marking requirements vary by destination. Tell us the import market and we confirm what marking the plant can supply on that size before you place the order.
What warranty do you give?
One year against manufacturing defect on all tyres we supply, with claims handled by us directly. Cargo transportation insurance is provided on the shipment itself.
Can you ship a mixed container with other patterns?
Yes. Most of our customers load one container across several patterns and sizes, which is the main reason to buy through us rather than from a single plant.
Is this tyre suitable for all axle positions?
Yes. The tyre is designed for front, drive and trailer axles on trucks operating under mixed on and off road conditions.
