MA04+ GIANT Opens Opportunities for Magna

The OTR segment is heavily contested and Magna has taken a further step into the market with its 33.00R51 MA04+ GIANT.
Magna MA04+ GIANT operating in Europe
Recently, the 33.00R51 MA04+ GIANT was been fitted under a rigid dump truck in Europe, taking the Netherlands company’s products into a new sector.
These Rigid Dump Trucks are used to haul heavy loads over long distances on rough and rocky terrains.
The client chose the MA04+ GIANT because of its extra deep tread pattern, which offers long even tread wear, cooler running design and improved traction. The E4-pattern of the MA04+ GIANT enables superior operation over wet ground and conformation over physical obstacles.
Magna has been delighted to receive positive reports from the client and expects to build on this experience and develop its reach in this market in the future.
