The CAT 972M, a medium-to-large wheel loader from Caterpillar, features a powerful Cat C9.3 engine (311 horsepower), a crushing force of up to 196 kilonewtons, and a bucket capacity of nearly 10 cubic meters, making it an ideal tool for heavy-duty applications in mining, construction, and industrial applications. To perfectly match the CAT 972M's exceptional performance, HYWG has specially developed and supplied 27.00-29/3.0 rims that match its tire specifications, providing a solid and stable foundation for the equipment.
To address the high-load and high-impact working environment of the CAT 972M, we selected high-quality alloy steel materials, combined with advanced heat treatment processes and precision forging technology. The resulting rims have extremely high mechanical strength and wear resistance, effectively resisting erosion from mining dust, gravel, and long-term vibration, thereby extending their service life.
The CAT 972M tire has complex specifications and strict rim matching requirements. Our rims are precisely designed to ensure a perfect fit between the rim bead groove and the tire. The optimized locking ring structure significantly enhances bead locking force, preventing tire slippage or air pressure leaks, ensuring airtightness and operational safety, and providing a solid foundation for the equipment.
equipped with our high-performance rims, can better support its 24.8-ton machine weight and fully loaded materials, reducing the risk of rim fatigue and deformation due to overload, improving tire efficiency and overall machine performance. The rational rim design also helps evenly distribute the load, reducing mechanical wear and tear, and ensuring long-term, efficient operation of the equipment.
We not only provide high-quality rims that meet the CAT 972M technical specifications, but also have a professional service team to provide users with installation guidance, maintenance solutions and technical support to ensure the perfect fit between the rims and the equipment, and guarantee the long-term stable operation of the equipment.




The 27.00-29/3.0 rim is a heavy-duty rim designed specifically for large wheel loaders and mining machinery. It is widely used in demanding environments such as mining, construction, docks, and industrial transportation. The 27.00-29 rim size represents the tire size the rim is compatible with, while the 3.0 rim designates a 3.0-inch width, providing a sturdy and wide bead support surface.
The rim size strictly complies with the 27.00-29 tire standard, ensuring a close fit between the tire bead and the rim, improving air tightness and reducing the risk of tire leakage.
Made of high-quality alloy steel, processed through precision forging and heat treatment, it has excellent mechanical strength and wear resistance and can withstand heavy loads and high-intensity impacts.
The 3.0-inch rim width provides ample shoulder support for the tire, evenly distributing the load and enhancing overall machine stability and tire life. A reliable locking ring groove ensures the tire is securely locked, preventing slippage during high-load, high-speed operation and improving safety.
At the same time , the surface is treated with rust-proof coating to adapt to the harsh environment and changeable climate of the mine, extending the service life of the rim.
