A wheeled excavator earns its money in the minutes it spends slewing under load at the edge of a trench, not on the drive to site. That is also the moment the tyre decides whether the machine stands firm or whether the operator has to take it slower.
Delcora EXC-Grip was built for machines that move between asphalt, sand, gravel and rubble on the same day. A high-traction block tread for pulling power on loose ground, a reinforced steel belted casing that keeps sharp debris out of the tread, and a wide footprint that holds the machine steady when it works sideways under load. Five sizes, available from stock, each with the rim specification that belongs to it. Below you will find what sets the EXC-Grip apart, the specifications per size, and how to pick the right one for your machine or fleet.
Why the tyre decides how hard your excavator can work
A wheeled excavator rarely spends the day on one surface. It travels to site on asphalt, digs in sand or clay, and manoeuvres over rubble and gravel in between. Each surface makes its own demands: pulling power on loose terrain, a stable base during digging and lifting, and a casing that shrugs off sharp stones and construction debris.
For contractors, rental companies and fleet owners, the maths is simple. A flat tyre means a stopped machine, waiting crews and a schedule under pressure. Slow delivery of replacement tyres adds to the bill. Grip and fast availability are therefore not details, they are operational decisions that show up directly in fleet uptime.
Delcora EXC-Grip: traction, stability and puncture resistance in one tyre
The EXC-Grip was engineered around that daily reality. The block tread generates optimal pulling power on sand, gravel and loose soil, while the wide footprint spreads machine weight for maximum stability, including when slewing under load at the edge of a trench. It is an excavator tyre with puncture resistant sidewall and tread: steel belts protect the tread area, and the reinforced sidewall resists cuts from stones and debris. The same wide, soil-friendly tread pattern lowers ground pressure and leaves fewer ruts on finished surfaces and sensitive ground.
Key strengths of the Delcora EXC-Grip tyre:
- optimal pulling power on loose and mixed terrain
- puncture resistant pattern and sidewall
- steel belted tyre for wheeled excavator duty
- wide footprint for maximum stability
- high PR rating (18 to 24 PR) for heavy loads
- soil-friendly tread pattern with low rutting
- available from stock, fast delivery through HBI

Which EXC-Grip size fits your machine?
As a guideline:
- Compact and lighter wheeled excavators: the 500/45-20 offers 18 PR and 5,000 kg load capacity per tyre on a 16.00×20 rim, a compact and strong fit.
- Standard mobile excavators: the 600 and 650 sizes, including the widely used 600/40-22.5 excavator tyre, the 600/50-22.5 and the 650/45-22.5, combine 24 PR with load capacities up to 6,900 kg on 20.00×22.5 rims.
- Maximum stability and footprint: at 698 mm section width, the 710/40-22.5 puts down the widest footprint in the range, suited to machines that work sideways under load or operate on soft ground.
