Fujian Haian Rubber Co., Ltd., located in Fengting, Xianyou, is currently one of the four largest manufacturers of all-steel giant tires in the world, and is also the only similar enterprise in China that can produce engineering tires with an inner diameter of more than 57 inches
Introduction to the largest wheels
Fujian Hai'an Rubber Company, located in Fengting, Xianyou, is currently one of the four largest manufacturers of "all-steel giant tires" in the world, and is also the only one in China that can produce engineering tires with an inner diameter of over 57 inches. Similar companies. It is reported that in 2008, the company produced China's first 37.00R57 all-steel giant engineering radial tire with a diameter of 3.46 meters and a load capacity of 190 tons, which was known as "China's first tire". The company can now also produce larger 59/80R63 giant engineering radial tires, which are the "Big Mac" and "Aircraft Carrier" among tires.
PS: The tire alone weighs 4 tons, has an inner diameter of 63 inches, a height of 4.2 meters, and a width of 59 inches. The price is also surprisingly expensive, with a unit price of more than 600,000 yuan. It is currently the largest specification in the world. of tires.

Start? Made in Putian? Brand Haian giant tires are galloping around the world
Speaking of Haian Rubber, many people have heard of it. In 2008, the company produced the first 37.00R57 all-steel giant engineering radial tire with a diameter of 3.46 meters and a load capacity of 190 tons. It was known as "China's first tire", filling the gap in domestic giant radial tires and also breaking the international The three giants monopolized the all-steel giant tire market and became the fourth company in the world capable of manufacturing such tires that year.
Not long ago, under the leadership of Zhu Hui, chairman of Fujian Haian Rubber Co., Ltd., the reporter walked into the company’s production workshop in Xianyou Economic Development Zone. The reporter was greeted by a row of “mighty and majestic” all-steel rubber products. The giant engineering tires were shocking: four or five meters high tires stood against the wall. When a reporter with a height of about 1.75 meters came closer to compare, they were only one-third as high as the tires.
Talking about giant wheels
Zhu Hui’s thoughts also went back to the beginning of his business.
Zhu Hui was born into a poor farm family in Haian Village, Fengting Town, Xianyou County. When he was 16 years old, due to poor family circumstances, he gave up his studies and followed his elder brother to work at construction sites inside and outside the province. In 1984, Zhu Hui led his fellow villagers to the construction site of Baise Yantan Hydropower Station in Guangxi to repair tires, and he has been inseparable from tires ever since.
Opportunities always favor those with wisdom and courage. After Zhu Hui made his first pot of gold in the tire repair industry, he was not satisfied with the status quo. A few years later, he quickly expanded his tire repair business to more than a dozen projects in Shenzhen, Guangdong, Pingshuo, Shanxi, Dexing, Jiangxi, and Benxi, Liaoning. Construction sites, and have successively built tire retreading plants at these construction sites to undertake one-stop services of tire retreading, repair and management. With superb retreading technology, Zhu Hui's team's refurbished giant engineering radial tires have a service life of 70% of that of new tires, reducing a large amount of tire consumption costs for large and medium-sized mines and key hydropower hub construction projects.
? Since the production technology of giant engineering tires has long been in the hands of foreign brand companies, domestic mining companies often face procurement difficulties. They cannot buy tires if they have money, resulting in reduced output and inability to complete mining tasks. ?Zhu Hui saw this in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. He determined to develop giant engineering radial tires by himself to replace foreign brands and bring glory to the country and cheer for the nation.
Giant wheel construction project
In December 2005, Zhu Hui, who had been working hard in the field of giant tire retreading for more than 10 years, decided to return to his hometown of Fengting to start Fujian Haian Rubber Co., Ltd. enters the field of giant tire production and manufacturing. The company has a registered capital of 100 million yuan and covers an area of ??475 acres. It has invested more than 1.8 billion yuan so far. The project was listed as a key construction project in Fujian Province that year.
After the factory was built, faced with new equipment and new processes, Zhu Hui and his team were not overwhelmed by difficulties and setbacks. They worked hard at the site for several months, provided food and accommodation in the workshop, Study mechanical properties, equipment debugging, explore process connection and process optimization, and improve rubber formula and molding technology. The company stipulates that 10% of the output value must be used as technology research and development funds every year, and it actively cooperates with colleges and universities on technology research and development to carry out research and innovation. Under his leadership, one after another production technical problems were overcome in the shortest possible time. Currently, Haian has obtained 23 nationally authorized patents.
At present, only Haian Company can produce engineering tires with an inner diameter of 57 inches or more in China. Zhu Hui said that a larger 59/80R63 giant engineering radial tire produced by the company last year set a new record as the largest in the country. This tire weighs 4 tons, has an inner diameter of 63 inches, is 4.2 meters high and 59 meters wide. The giant tire with a unit price of more than 600,000 yuan has also become the largest tire in the world.
