What brand is Atlas tires?
1 Answers
Atlas is a tire brand under the American Linglong Tire company, which also produces off-road tires specifically designed for unpaved surfaces. As early as 1935, Atlas collaborated with Goodyear to manufacture tires, becoming a benchmark in the U.S. tire market. In 2009, it was acquired by China's Ruyi Group and officially entered the Chinese market in 2017. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery that roll on the ground. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions. During operation, they endure various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperature effects. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning performance, along with high wear resistance and flex resistance, as well as low rolling resistance and heat generation. They directly contact the road surface and work with the vehicle's suspension to absorb shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. They also ensure excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road, improving the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capabilities while bearing the vehicle's weight. For daily use of Atlas tires, pay attention to the following points: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to wear from driving, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread is worn flat, it loses its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Even small cracks can pose a risk of tire blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles lodged in the grooves. Park on flat ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that may degrade rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool overheated tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, stop to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the road.
