Rim 20 tyres for tippers, construction vehicles and heavy-haul work in Mexico. 2 Hanksugi models with HATT Technology for steer and drive axles in severe operating conditions.
The 12.00R20 is an imperial-designation tyre size used on heavy-haul trucks, tippers, construction vehicles and vocational units that run a 20-inch rim in Mexico. Unlike the 22.5-inch rim sizes that dominate long-haul transport, the 12.00R20 is designed for applications where rim robustness, a tall sidewall and impact resistance matter more than highway speed. Hanksugi offers 2 models in this size with HATT Technology: the HS207 for the steer axle and the HS68 for the drive axle, both built for the demanding conditions of construction, mining and the transport of heavy materials in Mexico.
In the designation 12.00R20, the number 12.00 indicates the section width in inches (approximately 305 mm), the R confirms radial construction with steel belts, and 20 is the rim diameter in inches. The 20-inch rim is smaller but more robust than the 22.5-inch rim, which produces a tyre with a taller sidewall that better absorbs the impacts of uneven terrain, severe potholes and worksite surfaces. The overall diameter is approximately 1,085 mm with a weight of 60-72 kg per tyre, depending on the model and number of plies.
Hanksugi offers 2 models in size 12.00R20 with HATT Technology, covering the steer axle and the drive axle for vocational and heavy-haul applications.

Tippers, concrete mixers, crane trucks, mining vehicles, refuse collection trucks, tankers and other vocational units with a 20-inch rim. They are common on infrastructure sites and in the transport of heavy materials across Mexico.
Yes. They comply with the Mexican Official Standard (NOM) for commercial tyres and with US DOT certification. They are suitable for operation on federal highways and unpaved roads in Mexico.
Both have a similar width (~305 mm), but the 12.00R20 uses a 20-inch rim (more robust, taller sidewall) and the 12R22.5 uses a 22.5-inch rim. The 12.00R20 is better for difficult terrain and construction sites, while the 12R22.5 is more common in highway transport.
Yes. The casings support 2 guaranteed retreads even in severe operating conditions. This significantly reduces the cost per kilometre for tipper and construction fleets in Mexico.
