The smart money is on Alcoa aluminum wheels.
You’re working hard to improve productivity and lower operating costs. Alcoa’s been doing that since inventing the forged aluminum wheel back in 1948. Today, LvL ONE® technology is available in many of our wheels – from 22.5” and 24.5” to 14” Wide Base. Lighter, brighter, stronger.
Each and every Alcoa aluminum wheel optimizes strength and durability while lowering weight for increased payload. That’s increased productivity. For example, simply switching single steel 22.5”x8.25” wheels to Alcoa 14” Wide Base wheels can reduce the weight of an 18-wheeler by 1,350 lbs. No other component on a truck is as simple to specify or swap out, delivering immediate improvements in productivity and operating costs.
In addition to wheel size options, Alcoa also offers the advantages of multiple surface options, including Dura-Bright®, Mirror Polish and Bright Polish. And don’t forget Dura-Flange® and our Severe Service™ wheels for specific applications and needs. From top to bottom, Alcoa has you covered to help drive your bottom line.
