BUS100: high mileage and regular wear
Tuesday, September 13, 2011
Marangoni Retreading Systems, tirelessly pursuing the challenge of
technological development and striving to constantly anticipate the
needs of the tyre retreading market, has accepted a new challenge: the
design and production of new generation, multi-purpose RINGTREADS that
can be considered, within their specific segment, all-position and
all-season patterns.
One of these new generation RINGTREAD designs is the BUS100, available
for retreading city bus and intercity coach tyres with the objective to
improve overall efficiency by increasing mileage and reducing running
costs.
This pattern features a wide footprint, increased by more than 5% to
improve mileage, and solid and sturdy shoulders to guarantee maximum
resistance when hitting against sidewalks or footpaths.
Moreover, the special interlock siping on the reinforced and stabilised
tread blocks improves traction, ensures excellent road grip and regular
tread wear. These modern dimensional sipes, as well as being deeper,
give the all-season tread high resistance to tearing and very regular
tread wear.
This innovative pattern is created using a completely automated process,
extruding the rubber directly into the moulds, for perfect uniformity
of the final tread ring .
In addition, the profile is made using innovative compounds, suitable
for city use, able to withstand continuous stop/starts and at the same
time ensuring maximum mileage performance.
The main advantages from using these special compounds include better
rebound at low temperatures and reduced rolling resistance, allowing a
longer tyre life in extremely stressful conditions. These compounds also
allow the tyre to operate at lower working temperatures in conditions
that cause overheating, ensuring reduced casing fatigue and longer life.
