TREADS
Blackline WS101
reduced rolling resistance, as well as longer tread rubber life in extremely stressful conditions. These compounds also allow the tyre to work at lower temperatures in operating conditions that normally cause overheating, ensuring reduced casing fatigue and longer life.
The current Marangoni winter range includes numerous profiles, in the form of both rings and strips, covering different applications for all road surfaces.
The most innovative pattern in the winter range is the new Ringtread Blackline WS101. This bi-directional tread pattern features a variable block arrangement and deep 3D siping with interlock technology; specifically, the square tread profile means an exceptionally wide footprint that maximises grip on the road, allowing the tread to adapt to continuous changes in both road and weather conditions during operation.
These features mean excellent control on wet, snow-covered surfaces, even in the presence of compact snow and ice, thanks to dense transversal siping that optimise tread footprint, improving grip even in the most extreme conditions.
In addition, the wide opening of the shoulders means that the tread is constantly kept “clean” of any snow and ice; the reinforcing bridges on the side ribs provide stability on softer ground (snow, mud), resistance to very aggressive road surfaces (ice) and more regular wear, even when the tread is used for periods on non-winter roads.
Finally, this tread is the first to be marked with the Marangoni logo directly on the pattern. Marangoni has also extended its winter range of PRL strips, with the introduction of the MS101L profile.
This is an all-season pattern whose characteristics make it especially suitable for winter use on vehicles doing deliveries over short distances, guaranteeing good traction on both dry and wet surfaces.
All the PRL profiles are supplied to northern Europe markets by the Marangoni Retreading Systems Deutschland subsidiary, located in Hamburg, which profits from its geographic location and keeps a complete stock of winter range products.
In addition, the increasing demand for the 70 series has led to the expansion of the MS6 and MS9 lines with the addition of new lengths
All the patterns are 3PMSF approved, being designed and moulded using compounds and patterns that are perfect for extreme winter use.
New Vipal VL140 Tread for Europe
Investing in new products that meet the specific needs of each of the markets to which it exports. This is one of Vipal Rubber's main initiatives. The Brazilian company is the leader in tyre retreading in Latin America and one of the most important manufacturers of tyre retreading products in the world. With this focus, Vipal has launched the VL140 tread, which is meant for the cargo transportation sector, specifically in the European market.
The VL140 tread is used on super single tyres that are wider and
correspond to two normal trailer tyres. This type of tyre is more commonly used in markets
such as in Europe,.
This super single offers a reduction in the overall weight, and a subsequent increase in the total payload. The VL140 also stands out for its high resistance to wear caused by abrasion, allowing for more mileage and low rolling resistance, which contributes to a decrease in fuel consumption. It offers
fleet managers better performance and savings.
