Overview
The tread pattern combines block and rib elements to balance traction, stability and wear resistance. It is built for consistent performance across mixed fleet operations and supports retreading in later life.

What HK808 Gives the Operator
Block and rib tread design delivers strong grip under torque while maintaining straight line stability
Long block geometry helps reduce irregular and eccentric wear patterns on loaded axles
Five deep circumferential grooves enhance water evacuation on wet tarmac surfaces
Kerfed block surfaces improve traction on cold and greasy road conditions during early morning starts
Application Scenarios
- Long-distance haulage on paved motorways and national trunk roads with regular loading cycles
- Regional distribution fleets operating on tarmac routes with frequent stops and starts
- Dump truck and mixer operations where yard surfaces are uneven but most travel is on paved roads
Who It Is For
- Fleet operators replacing drive axle tyres across mixed-brand tractor units
- Distributors requiring a mid-tier drive tyre with retreadable casing at a competitive price point
What It Is Meant To Fix
Drive tyres that develop saw tooth wear and fail prematurely due to block edge tearing
Reduced grip on wet surfaces under full load, increasing braking distance and safety risk
Casing failure during retreading due to weak structure or poor build quality
Technical Features
- Mixed block and rib tread pattern for balanced traction and straight-line stability on drive axles
- Long block design to reduce eccentric and abnormal wear under heavy loads
- Five deep circumferential grooves for effective water evacuation on wet roads
- Kerfed block surfaces to improve grip on cold and greasy tarmac during early morning operation
- Container loading can include multiple TBR patterns, PCR sizes, and wheels in a single shipment
- Sidewall marking and labelling can be adjusted to meet destination market requirements upon request
Quality Control
- X-ray inspection of the finished casing before packing to detect internal defects
- Dynamic balance check performed on the production line to ensure smooth operation
- Manufacturing processes aligned with ISO9001 and ISO/TS16949 quality systems
How It Compares
- Compared with A premium European drive tyreLower purchase price per casing, though independent fleet testing has not yet confirmed long-term mileage performance
Getting the Most Out Of It
- Fit to the drive axle only; keep steer and trailer positions on their respective pattern types
- Set cold pressure to the actual load carried on the axle, not the maximum sidewall rating
- Check pressures weekly - under inflation is the most common cause of shoulder wear on drive tyres

HK808 Questions
What load can each size carry
Load capacity depends on the specific size and ply rating; confirm with the latest load index table for your order
Can the casing be retreaded
The casing is built for retreading, but acceptance depends on the retreader and operating conditions. Confirm with your retreading partner before bulk ordering
What certifications does the tyre carry
Transmate products carry ISO9001, ISO/TS16949, CCC, E-mark, DOT, GSO/GCC, SONCAP, INMETRO and NOM approvals. We confirm the relevant marking based on your destination market
