Optimized Payload Efficiency: Available in heavy-duty wide sizes (385/65R22.5 and 425/65R22.5). Designed to replace traditional dual-tire setups on trailer or steer axles, significantly reducing total vehicle weight to maximize cargo capacity and payload efficiency.
Superior High-Speed Performance: Specifically optimized for long-distance fleet vehicles operating on paved highways and expressways. The continuous solid ribs deliver exceptional directional stability, smooth rolling behavior, and precise handling at high cruising speeds.
Advanced Wear-Resistant Compound: Formulated with a next-generation rubber compound that provides super wear resistance and high protection against heat degradation (good heat resistance). This ensures the tire runs remarkably cool over long distances, drastically extending original tread life.
Reinforced Steel Belt Construction: Features an ultra-strong, 20-ply rating (L/20) casing with severe-duty load indexes (160K / 164J).
The 385/65R22.5 reliably carries up to 4,500 kg.
The 425/65R22.5 carries up to 5,000 kg.
High Retreadability: The heavy-duty carcass preserves its structural integrity under intense stress, offering excellent multi-retread potential to minimize long-term fleet costs.
Recommended Axles: Best suited for Trailer positions (specifically optimized for multi-axle heavy trailers) and specialized front Steer positions requiring a wide footprint.
Road Conditions: Paved highways, expressways, and high-quality regional roads (Apply to paved and high-speed roads).
Vehicle Compatibility: Perfect for long-distance commercial transport trucks, heavy-duty logistics trailers, tank trucks, and bulk cargo haulers (Long distance vehicles).
Fuel Economy Leader: The wide-base design reduces overall rolling resistance compared to standard dual-tire setups, significantly cutting down fleet fuel consumption per kilometer.
Direct Factory Advantage: Bypassing regional middlemen ensures you secure premium Chinese tire manufacturing direct from our facility at the most competitive, direct-to-factory price.
Flexible Logistics Consolidation: Fully backed by our expert shipping support, allowing for advanced container optimization, mixed-item loading, and prompt shipment protection to maximize your CBM space.
SUNITRAC 385/65R22.5 SN286 — Product FAQ
A: The SN286 is a premium heavy-duty pattern engineered primarily for trailer axles in long-haul and regional transport. Its robust, wide-shoulder design provides exceptional lateral stability and high resistance to irregular scrubbing. While it can technically be utilized on steer axles under standard highway conditions, we highly recommend positioning it on trailer axles to maximize overall tread life and achieve optimum fleet fuel efficiency.
A: The SN286 features a standard tread depth of 16 mm, utilizing our advanced low heat build-up and cut-resistant compound. Under standard highway applications, with proper inflation maintenance and nominal load capacities, fleets typically report a mileage lifespan of 150,000 to 180,000 kilometers before the first removal, delivering an outstanding Cost-Per-Kilometer (CPK) value.
A: Durability and casing integrity are core strengths of the SUNITRAC brand. The SN286 is built with a high-tensile steel cord structure and a reinforced bead design, which significantly reduces casing fatigue and prevents bead separation. The low heat-generation compound effectively protects the inner liner, ensuring excellent retreadability. Under standard operating parameters, the casing can easily support 2 to 3 retreads, further lowering your long-term operational costs.
A: For a standard 40HQ container, we can load approximately 230 to 240 pieces of un-nested 385/65R22.5 tires (subject to the weight limits of the destination port). To help you optimize ocean freight costs, we strictly specialize in flexible mixed-loading solutions. We can seamlessly consolidate this size with other TBR/OTR sizes, nest smaller PCR tires inside, or load customized promotional materials and workwear according to your specific import requirements.
A: SUNITRAC tires are built for global compliance. The 385/65R22.5 SN286 carries all major international certifications, including DOT, ECE, E-MARK, GCC, and ISO9001. Furthermore, we regularly assist our long-term distribution partners by providing preferential Certificates of Origin (such as Form E) to help reduce import tariffs and streamline customs clearance procedures.
A: We stand firmly behind the quality of our products. SUNITRAC provides a full manufacturer's warranty covering any defects in workmanship and materials. In the rare event of a claim—such as a factory-related sidewall bulge or tread separation—you simply need to provide the DOT serial number along with a short video or photo of the issue. Once verified by our technical inspection team, a commercial credit or replacement will be applied directly to your very next shipment.
Industry 4.0 Smart Manufacturing: Produced in a fully automated smart facility with a capacity of over 6 million TBR units annually, guaranteeing bulk stock availability and prompt shipping.
Premium Materials: Built using high-grade natural rubber from specialized plantations in Thailand/Malaysia and world-class steel cords from Bekaert (Belgium).
Flawless Quality Control: Every single tire must pass a multi-stage inspection process, including 100% X-ray scanning, laser shearography, and dynamic balance uniformity testing.
Global Certifications: Fully certified and compliant with DOT, ECE, SMARTWAY, GCC, ISO9001, IATF16949, and INMETRO for smooth customs clearance worldwide.
