The Austone AT68 is a summer tire model for heavy-duty commercial vehicles. It is recommended for installation on the drive axle of vehicles that transport bulky goods, such as dump trucks and mixer trucks. The Austone AT68 model is an ideal option for equipping long-haul trucks: tractors, tankers, and refrigerators. The model is popular among owners of commercial freight vehicles.
The manufacturer guarantees exact compliance with the declared technical characteristics only if the vehicle is operated on roads with high-quality solid pavement.
The Austone AT68 model range is distinguished by a large assortment, including about 30 sizes, which differ not only in geometric dimensions but also in load characteristics and speed parameters. Depending on the purpose, Austone AT68 tires are released with speed indices from J to M (speed limit within 100-130 km/h).
The design of the Austone AT68 tires uses a reinforced steel cord, which, in combination with a specially rigid rubber, provides high tensile strength of the material, as well as good protection against mechanical damage.
The carefully designed tread pattern and its construction provide high traction and dynamic parameters, which qualitatively affect the length of the braking distance, maneuverability, and directional stability. The detailing and mutual arrangement of the tread blocks significantly limit the lateral displacement of the wheel during movement, as well as provide high resistance to the inertia of the loaded vehicle, which also affects the length of the braking distance.
The specifics of the drainage channels provide effective removal of water from the contact zone, which reduces the risk of aquaplaning.
The ultra-powerful sidewall zone of the tread provides high resistance to transverse loads, as well as ensures the preservation of the geometric shape of the wheels and protection against mechanical damage.
