The Problem with Long Runs

In narrow-aisle distribution, long runs and high speeds are the keys to productivity. But there's a catch: high speeds generate internal friction. In standard tires, this heat builds up until the tire literally melts from the inside out. If you've ever seen a tire 'chunking' or seen bond separation, you've seen heat failure.

Cushothane® XL-AC™: Built for the 24/7 Cycle

The XL-AC™ compound was engineered specifically for this scenario. It's designed to run significantly cooler than standard compounds, even during non-stop shifts.

What You'll Notice:

  • Reduced Energy Consumption: Lower rolling resistance means your electric trucks stay on the floor longer between charges.
  • Legendary Bonding: We're so confident in the heat resistance that these come with a No Bond Separation Guarantee.
  • Operator Comfort: Despite the high load capacity, the XL-AC maintains excellent shock absorption, reducing fatigue for your drivers.

If your facility never stops, your tires shouldn't either. It's time to switch to the compound built for the marathon, not the sprint.
