Tyre Handling Equipment

Austin Engineering has established an

unsurpassed reputation for innovation,
reliability, safety and value in tyre
handling equipment.

As industry leaders in the Our tyre handler range is

design of tyre manipulating
technology, Austin
Engineering significantly
contributed to the
development and evolution of
the current standard from its
beginnings in the early 1990s.
We design and manufacture
a comprehensive range
of dual‑arm and unique
three‑arm tyre handlers, from
1,800kg to 15,000kg capacity.
suitable for use on LHD,
front end and wheel loaders,
underground and articulated
mine trucks. It is also suitable
for use on quarry or mine
class haul trucks, from small
trucks through to ultra-class
mine haul trucks.
All our units are backed
by an extensive parts and
service programme which
ensures many years of safe
and reliable operation.
