- Company Profile:
Uses precision manufacturing to ensure an ultra-high level of tire uniformity, while also employing powerful proprietary tread design software to minimized tread acoustics.
Industry:Automotive
An added rubber tire component between the tread and belt that absorbs road irregularities for a smoother ride.
Industry:Automotive
The area in which the tire is in contact with the road surface. Also called footprint.
Industry:Automotive
The strands of fabric forming the plies or layers of the tire. Cords may be made from polyester, rayon, nylon, fiberglass or steel.
Industry:Automotive
The force on a turning vehicle’s tires - the tire’s ability to grip and resist side force - that keeps the vehicle on the desired arc.
Industry:Automotive
A sipe pattern that provides lateral and longitudinal stiffness within the tread block.
Industry:Automotive
Provide the rigid base for the tread which allows for good fuel economy. The plies also provide centrifugal and lateral rigidity to the tire, and are designed to flex sufficiently for a comfortable ride.
Industry:Automotive
Weight of a production vehicle with fluid reservoirs (including fuel tank) full and all normal equipment in place, but without driver or passengers.
Industry:Automotive
The tread and sidewall flexing where the tread comes into contact with the road.
Industry:Automotive
The ability of a vehicle to be driven safely and with confidence in a straight line and at high speed without being affected by pavement irregularities, crosswinds, aerodynamic lifting forces, or other external influences. 1
