The Cooper WORK Series RHA 2 tire combines the fuel efficiency of a long-haul tire with the toughness of a high-scrub regional tire for super-regional and regional all-position commercial applications
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (NASDAQ: GT) announced the new Cooper WORK Series Regional Haul All-position (RHA) 2 tire for super-regional and regional all-position commercial vehicle applications. The new Cooper WORK Series RHA 2 is SmartWay verified and offers long miles to removal and even-wear for the growing super-regional commercial vehicle category.
“The super-regional category is evolving with shorter routes between shipping hubs and a focus on improving efficiency by being closer to last-mile delivery fleets,” said Joe Burke, vice president, North America Commercial at Goodyear. “The new Cooper WORK Series RHA 2 helps address these needs by combining a long-haul tread with a scrub guard compound, creating a tough tire that can handle everything from long trips to urban traffic.”
The Cooper WORK Series RHA 2 is designed for super-regional and Less-than-Truckload (LTL) fleets and includes the following features:
- Balanced Long-Haul And Regional Tread Compound provides fuel efficiency with long miles to removal.
- Scrub Guard Compound helps resist wear in high-scrub, super-regional and regional applications.
- Five-Rib Tread With Wide Footprint And Solid Shoulder promotes even wear and long miles to removal.
- Stone Protector Ledges help minimize stone retention and protect the casing from stone penetration for retreadability.
- Cooper Wear Square indicator allows for quick approximation of remaining tread life for each tire.
The new Cooper WORK Series RHA 2 is the latest addition to the Cooper line up of commercial truck tires. The Cooper WORK Series, SEVERE Series and PRO Series commercial truck tires deliver the quality and value expected from the Cooper brand by focusing on total cost of ownership.
