Commercial tire for highway tractors Bridgestone Ecopia H-Drive 002 is installed on the driving axle. It is distinguished by excellent fuel efficiency and ride for its class, improved traction and coupling properties on wet pavement, and an extended service life.
The tire tread is made from a NanoPro rubber compound. The use of special polymers in its composition has made it possible to improve a number of important physical and chemical properties. First and foremost, this is thermal conductivity. This compound is extremely efficient at dissipating heat from the carcass, thereby reducing rolling resistance and fuel consumption. At the same time, it is rigid enough for the tread pattern elements to have good resistance to deformation. This also reduces rolling resistance and wear.
The tread pattern is notable for its massive blocks at the edges. These provide high traction and reduce the risk of uneven wear and tear. The densely arranged elements in the central part increase the contact patch, improving traction and course stability when driving at high speeds.
Main features of Bridgestone Ecopia H-Drive 002
- NanoPro rubber compound reduces rolling resistance and fuel consumption;
- excellent traction on wet pavement due to the large number of lamellas in the central part and the extended side walls of the blocks at the edges of the tread;
- reinforced all-steel carcass improves the basic operational properties of the tire, provides the possibility of restoring the tread pattern.
