FAQs

What tyre protection chains are best for Sandvik LH621?

The Sandvik LH621 comes with 35/65 R33 tyres and we recommend 3 versatile chain types designed for abrasive conditions.

Recommended options include:

Fels Toro X19
Fels Titan X19
Fels Gigant Plus X19

These chains are engineered to deliver maximum tyre protection, traction and durability in demanding environments.

How do tyre protection chains extend tyre life on Sandvik LH621?

Tyre protection chains improve performance on the Sandvik LH621 by forming a protective layer between the tyre and ground surface through:

Reducing tyre cuts and impact damage
Minimising abrasive wear from rock and material
Improving traction in loose or uneven ground
Extending tyre service life under heavy loads

Are tyre protection chains necessary for quarries?

In most underground mining environments, tyre protection chains are highly recommended for the Sandvik LH621 due to severe operating conditions.

Without chains, tyres are exposed to:

Sharp and abrasive material
High load and impact cycles
Increased risk of downtime and replacement costs

Chains help improve reliability and reduce operating costs.
