AIRPORT TRACTOR TIRES

MICHELIN TIRES DEDICATED TO TOW TRACTORS

A tow tractor connects to an aircraft using a towbar, a rigid metal bar designed to attach securely to the aircraft's nose landing gear. This type of tractor is used to push or pull the aircraft during ground operations, such as repositioning on the tarmac or guiding it to and from the gate. Tow tractors are versatile and compatible with various aircraft sizes, making them a staple in many airport fleets.

 MICHELIN TIRES DEDICATED TO TOWBARLESS TRACTORS

Towbarless tractors operate differently by lifting the nose landing gear of the aircraft directly onto the vehicle itself. This design eliminates the need for a towbar, providing better maneuverability and reducing stress on the aircraft's landing gear. These tractors are often preferred for their efficiency and ability to handle larger aircraft with enhanced precision.

MICHELIN TIRES DEDICATED TO BAGGAGE TRACTORS

Baggage tractors are specialized vehicles used for towing baggage and cargo dollies around the airport. Designed for strength and reliability, they move containers and baggage carts between terminals, aircraft, and sorting areas. These tractors are compact and highly maneuverable, ensuring smooth and timely ground handling operations.
