OTR consolidates one-stop solution offering

In a short time, OTR has cemented its reputation as a central source for tyre, wheel and axle needs, with all products and services under one roof.

The past couple of years have seen OTR firm its position as a one-stop shop for tyre, wheel and axle customers across the construction, mining, transport and agriculture industries.

Its nationwide service strategy expanded its presence across the country, with OTR's seven branches being joined by another nine.

The additional locations have enabled the business to create nationwide connectivity to service large commercial customers in the truck and bus radial (TBR) market, in addition to off-road, mining, agriculture and passenger vehicles.

Earthmoving Equipment Magazine caught up with OTR Business Development Manager Greg Lowe to discuss how the company has consolidated its success as a complete solution for tyres, wheels, axles and everything in between.

“Innovation in design, new materials and advanced manufacturing techniques are constantly evolving at OTR,” he said.

“We work closely with our customers to offer products that suit the task at hand, while offering market-leading pricing.

“This strategy is supported by sustainable manufacturing policies that have made us one of the only Australian manufacturers left in this market.”

Extended life for haul truck wheels

Key developments by OTR have included the introduction of the Ultra-Life-eXtreme (ULX) wheel, which uses improved materials and design principles to strike the right balance between utilisation hours and product longevity.

“By being a heavier-duty item with data-backed fatigue reductions, the ULX wheel allows operations to save downtime and money by extending the testing frequencies and replacement regimes,” Greg said.
