VMMS
V-STEEL MINING SMOOTH TREAD
The all-new Bridgestone V-Steel Mining Smooth Tread (VMMS) is the latest subterranean technology for the underground hard rock segment. Through its advanced design and engineering, the VMMS delivers 3-star capacity at 2-star pressure for optimal performance and safety. The VMMS radial tire provides excellent traction and stability. Bridgestone’s latest subterranean technology realizes increased load capacity without extra inflation pressure and longer service life. Applicable to LHD and UHT, including higher-load models (e.g. hybrid/ electric).

1. Compared load capacity to 2024 Bridgestone Databook (p.49) at 94 PSI / 650 kPa to Bridgestone VSMS 26.5R25 40,800 lbs (18,500 kgs) vs. the Bridgestone VMMS 26.5R25 46,700 lbs (21,200 kgs). Results may vary. Same comparison applies to 26.5R29 (page 51) and 35/65R33  (page 53) sizes. 2. Cut resistance data based on a comparison of Bridgestone VSMS vs. VMMS same size during testing. Results may vary depending on the usage, load, and surface conditions 3. Wear performance values are based on a comparison of the market evaluation of Bridgestone VSMS D2A 35/65R33 vs. Bridgestone VMMS L2A 35/65R33. Actual measurements may vary depending on size, patterns, specific usage, and surface conditions. 4. Loader & Dozer conventional (D2A) refers to the loader & Dozer standard registers in the TRA 5. Subterranean LHD stands for the Subterranean Load-Haul-Dump service standard registered in the JATMA-Annex3 and the TRA-EDI.
