Although tires represent major portion of operating costs on rubber-tired earthmoving equipment, they have not been improved at same pace as equipment design and performance; nature of jobs is such that tires for haulage equipment must be suitable for short haul as well as long haul type jobs; although excellent haul roads can be maintained between cut and fill areas, work at cut and fill expose tires to severe cutting; integral part of development of suitable tire construction technique should be low cost method of repairing damaged carcass, thereby providing extension of tire life; with this recapping should be developed which will give this tire same reliability as new tire in larger earthmoving sizes.
