What brand is steelbelted tires?
1 Answers
STEEL-BELTED is not a tire brand, but rather a marking indicating tire structure. STEEL-BELTED refers to semi-steel radial tires. Based on the different arrangements of internal cord layers and cushion layers, tires can be classified into two types: radial tires and bias tires. Differences between radial tires and bias tires: The international code for radial tires is "R", commonly known as "steel wire tires". The fundamental difference between radial tires and bias tires lies in the carcass. The carcass is the foundation of the tire, consisting of multiple layers of cord structures. Bias tires have cross-ply cord layers in their carcass, while radial tires have parallel-wrapped cord layers, often including a steel belt made of woven steel wires at the top layer. The cord arrangement forms a 0-degree angle with the tire's radial section (i.e., a 90-degree angle with the tire's centerline). Tire maintenance considerations: Rotate tire positions every 10,000 kilometers to evenly distribute tire fatigue, prevent uneven wear, and extend tire life; Avoid rapid acceleration, emergency braking, or sharp turns while driving; It is recommended to perform a four-wheel alignment every 2,000 kilometers to reduce abnormal tire wear caused by changes in the main parameters of four-wheel alignment. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high/low temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing, traction, and cushioning performance. Additionally, tires require high wear resistance and flex resistance, as well as low rolling resistance and heat generation.
