How big are mining truck tires?
Mining trucks are large-scale transport vehicles specially used in heavy-duty work sites such as open-pit mines and quarries. They are mainly used to transport bulk materials such as ore, coal, sand and gravel. Their design focuses on carrying extra-heavy loads, adapting to harsh terrain and working conditions, and having very strong power performance and durability.
Therefore, rims working in such terrains usually need to have super load-bearing capacity, durability and safety.
The tire sizes for mining trucks are often quite large, depending on the model and purpose of the truck. For example, a typical mining dump truck (such as a Caterpillar 797 or Komatsu 980E, which is a very large mining truck) can have tires of the following sizes:
Diameter: about 3.5 to 4 meters (about 11 to 13 feet)
Width: Approximately 1.5 to 2 meters (approximately 5 to 6.5 feet)
These tires are usually used on very large mining trucks and are capable of carrying huge loads, with a single tire weighing several tons. These tires are designed to cope with extreme working environments and demanding conditions, such as mines, quarries, etc.

We have more than 20 years of experience in wheel manufacturing for all modern wheels in the mining, construction equipment, industrial, forklift and agricultural industries . We are the original rim supplier in China for well-known brands such as Volvo, Caterpillar, Liebherr, John Deere, etc.
The 17.00-35/3.5 rigid dump truck rims produced by our company are widely used in the mining industry.
17.00-35/3.5 rim refers to a specific rim specification used for heavy vehicles such as mining trucks, construction machinery, etc. It is usually used with large tires and is suitable for coping with harsh working environments such as mining and heavy construction sites.
17.00: Indicates that the width of the rim is 17 inches. The rim width directly affects the width and load-bearing capacity of the tire.
35: Indicates that the diameter of the rim is 35 inches. The diameter of the rim must match the inside diameter of the tire to ensure they will fit properly.
/3.5: Usually refers to the width of the rim flange in inches. The flange is the outer edge of the rim that keeps the tire fixed on the rim.
This specification of rim is suitable for working conditions requiring high load and high durability.
What types of mining trucks are there?
Mining trucks refer to heavy machinery and transportation vehicles specially designed and manufactured for mining, transportation and processing of ores and other materials. They are usually used in harsh environments such as open-pit mines, underground mines and construction sites, and have high load capacity and durability.
Mining trucks can be divided into the following main types according to their purpose, design and working environment:
1. Dump mining truck:
Used to dump ore and materials to designated locations within mining areas and during short-distance transportation.
2. All-wheel drive mining truck:
Equipped with an all-wheel drive system, it is suitable for use in complex and harsh terrains, providing better traction.
3. Large mining trucks:
It has a large load capacity and is suitable for transporting heavy objects in open-pit mines and large construction sites.
4. Underground Trucks:
Designed specifically for underground mines, it is small in size and easy to operate in narrow tunnels.
5. Heavy-Duty Trucks:
Capable of carrying heavier materials, they are often used for transport tasks that require high load capacity.
6. Hybrid Mining Trucks
A powertrain that combines electric power and conventional fuel to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.
7. Multi-Purpose Trucks:
It can be used in a variety of applications and has high flexibility to adapt to different working environments.
Different types of mining trucks have their own design and performance advantages according to the operating requirements and environmental characteristics.
