At 80-psi they are rated at 3,640# "E" 80psi VS 3,675# "G" 110spi.

The chart is correct. It just needs to be updated as new tires have been introduced since it was printed.
When Sailun set a new standard for ST tires with their ST235/80R16 and ST235/85R16 steel cased tire they got a firm grip on that portion of the ST tire market. Since then, numerous "off shore" ST tire manufacturers have entered into the competition in that section of the market. New steel cased sizes are being introduced almost monthly. Below is a listing of some of the manufacturer's I've been tracking.
The following all produce steel cased tires in sizes ST235/80R16 LRG and ST235/85R16 LRG.
Sailun -- BlackLion -- Gladiator -- GreenBall -- Carlisle -- Hercules .
The Discount Tire Store brand Heartland, comes in size ST235/80R16 LRG.
Two have ventured into the 15" market with steel cased ST225/75R15 LRF tires. (3195# of load capacity at 95 PSI).
Hercules & GreenBall.
Another innovation without, steel casing, is the all new to the market tire designed with durability features for those off-road adventures .. It's the ST235/75R15 LRC with 2340# of load capacity at 50 PSI.
Because RVIA is pushing very hard to get all bias ply tires off the RV trailer, Kenda has - and this is the correct size - a 12" ST145/R42 LRE radial with 1540# of load capacity at 80 PSI.
