Bridgestone will return to AGG1 Aggregate Academy & Expo in Nashville, Tenn., to officially debut its new V-STEEL Z TRACTION (VZT) construction tire, the company’s latest 25” product innovation for loader and grader applications.

“Bridgestone is excited to officially debut our new VZT construction tire at AGG1 in Nashville, the home of our Americas headquarters,” said Rob Seibert, President, Off-the-Road, U.S. and Canada, Bridgestone Americas. “With job-site productivity top of mind for construction operators, the VZT is engineered to help deliver enhanced tire life and keep construction sites moving. When coupled with our engineering solutions portfolio, Bridgestone can help job sites get the most out of their products. We look forward to AGG1 and the opportunity to share our innovative products with customers and leaders in the industry.”

Designed to maximize tire life

The new Bridgestone VZT is designed to maximize tire life and help reduce the total cost of ownership. Among the VZT’s features are:

  • Advanced tread compounds engineered to help improve heat, cut, and tear, and increase total tire life by up to 15% compared to previous generation products.
  • A new tread pattern design with 9% improved traction, with low-angle centre block and self-cleaning wide shoulder groovers for wet, muddy surfaces, and challenging terrain.
  • Optimal sidewall shape and protectors to help minimize damage and enhance defence against tears and cuts.

Engineering Solutions

Along with VZT, Bridgestone will also spotlight its full package of Engineering Solutions at AGG1. Bridgestone Engineering Solutions offers expert field engineers who partner with customers to help optimize tires and job-site efficiency. Bridgestone provides nine engineering solutions, including heat and weight studies, in- and out-of-service inspections, GPS assessments, G-Force studies, site assessment and consultation, and more, all designed to help customers achieve their full operating potential.

The company’s booth will also detail the benefits of the largest service network in the industry, the Bridgestone Commercial Dealer Network, which offers OTR customers dealer support, training, and more to help achieve lower cost of ownership.

Partnership with Aaron Witt

At AGG1, Bridgestone will partner with Aaron Witt, a “Dirt World Influencer” and content creator in the construction, mining and aggregates space. Aaron’s company, BuildWitt, offers branding, training, and media support to organizations in the “Dirt World” industry, and Aaron himself travels the world telling “Dirt World” stories on his social platforms. Aaron will be available to speak with AGG1 attendees in Bridgestone’s booth on March 26 from 10 a.m.-12 p.m. CT.
