Wherever the conditions and legislation demand specialized winter truck tires, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck product line is synonymous with top-notch winter grip and durability. Now our flagship winter product line is completed with a tire specially designed for trailer use, Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck T.

Harsh winter conditions set special demands for trailer tires as well. Particularly lateral and braking grip are needed when hauling a timber trailer on small forest roads or moving heavy loads on curly mountain roads covered with ice. The new Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck T gives you more confidence in these extreme circumstances.

“The Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck T is designed to replace the classic Nokian NTR-827 tire”, says Nokian Heavy Tyres Product Manager Teppo Siltanen. “It is a completely new design that boasts all the features that have made the Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck line famous.”

These winter features include the new wide zigzag-shape grooves that improve self-cleaning and grip on snow. There is also a new type of trapeze-shaped siping that keeps its grip even when worn, and a new strong shoulder design that does not mind tight cornering. When extreme winter grip is needed, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck T can easily be studded with its marked stud places.

“It’s important that the grip lasts the tire lifetime”, Teppo Siltanen points out. “Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck T has staggered tread pattern that wears evenly, improving the mileage. The tire is suitable for all-year use when installed in the autumn. Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck T tire has a low rolling resistance and low tire noise. We value both the comfort of driving and the environment.”

Other products in the Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck range include the drive axle tires Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck D and E as well as the steering axle tires Nokian Hakkapeliitta Truck F2.
