What is a nylon tire for motorcycles?
1 Answers
Motorcycle nylon tires refer to nylon tires, also known as bias-ply tires. Introduction to nylon tires: Nylon tires are a traditional type of pneumatic tire with a long history and wide application. The carcass of a nylon tire consists of multiple layers of rubberized fabric, with adjacent layers having the same cord angle. Nylon tires are the opposite of radial tires, and compared to radial tires, the quality of nylon tires is inferior. Advantages and disadvantages of nylon tires: The advantages of nylon tires are that the bias-ply arrangement of the fabric layers provides high strength in the tread and sidewall. When properly inflated, they ensure good elasticity, sufficient load-bearing capacity, and meet the usage requirements of vehicles. The high elasticity of the tires helps to cushion the impact from uneven road surfaces during driving and prevents the tread from separating from the fabric layers during emergency braking. The disadvantages of nylon tires are that the sidewalls are relatively stiff, leading to poor comfort. Due to significant movement and friction between fabric layers at high speeds, they are not suitable for high-speed driving and are rarely used in passenger cars.
