The comfort of "fitting the tyres and forgetting" about them!™
The tyres are designed to offer consistent and reliable operation. Every tyre is subjected to demanding physical and chemical examinations. The stringent pre-production raw material control system, in-process step by step quality control system and 100% final inspection ensures that you can simply fit our tyres and rest easy!.
Construction
The tyres are constructed with 3 stages to deliver optimum performance.
Tread
The wear - resistant Natural Rubber compound combined with the unique tread design ensures improved stability, traction and braking in both dry/wet conditions. Available in more than 10 different formulations, to suit all applications and operating conditions (Please refer Tyre Types chart).
Centre
The resilient center Natural Rubber compound is a softer compound which is designed to reduce heat build up and increase the life of a tyre. The elastic property of the Centre area absorbs shock from being transmitted to the equipment, resulting in driving comfort, absolute safety and increased truck life through reduced vibration. In addition, this layer helps in reducing the rolling resistance of the tyre. Available in two formulations - the Normalride which is for low rolling resistance and Softride designed to give extra driver comfort.
Hard Base
The Hard Base area uses high durometer compounds and interference in the tyre rim fitment to ensure firm grip in the rim seating area thus eliminating any spinning problems. Available in a Natural Rubber compound with steel creel beads or hoop rings or with a matrix of nylon tyre cord fabric/rubber compound and optional steel creel beads or hoop rings.
The iLASTIC advantage
The entire process is computer controlled and driven - from the building of the green tyre to the finished product. Every operating parameter is monitored, and the process is continually adjusted through complex algorithms for variations in temperature, pressure, cure characteristics of each layer, heat transfer/inch....all to give the perfect cure, every time!
