Bridgestone has launched the Bandag B123 FuelTech retread, a trailer retread designed to complement the Bridgestone R123 Ecopia tire in design and performance to help reduce fuel cost.

The Bandag B123 retread is engineered to fight irregular wear and enable longer tread life, Bridgestone says.

When used together, the FuelTech retread and Ecopia drive tire can reduce energy loss by 4.7% and optimize fuel efficiency, the company notes.
