Kal Tire recently announced a distribution partnership with Haltec Group to make its KalPRO tooling available worldwide. Developed over nearly a decade at Kal Tire’s Innovation Centre in western Canada, KalPRO tools are designed to enhance safety and efficiency for mining tire technicians. Previously used exclusively by Kal Tire teams, these tools are now accessible to a broader market through Haltec and AME International.
The first tool available through this partnership is the KalPRO ValveShield, a magnetic valve housing designed to protect tire valve stems from debris, thereby reducing tire failure risks and increasing productivity. The KalPRO ValveShield, along with other KalPRO innovations, was showcased at MINExpo 2024, where industry professionals viewed the tools firsthand and discussed their applications with Kal Tire and Haltec representatives.
“We’re committed to making work around the wheel as safe as possible, so our focus has been on reinvesting in our teams, the tools they use, and the way they work. Through this partnership with Haltec and AME, we’re able to extend the benefits of KalPRO tools to technicians industry wide.” said Dan Allan, senior vice president, Kal Tire’s Mining Tire Group.
