In the face of stiff competition in the long-haul transportation segment, the reliability of trailer equipment comes to the forefront. The Chaoyang CR960A tyre is a well-thought-out solution designed for maximum efficiency on driven axles. It focuses not only on wear resistance but also on handling in any weather conditions.
Specifications
The key distinction of this model is its pronounced ribbed structure of the tread pattern. Here, rigid longitudinal "ribs" are used, which work as guides. This achieves a minimal amplitude of skidding at high speeds.
Some of the blocks are made solid (without breaks). This deliberate design allows increasing the contact patch by 7-9% compared to an open design. As a result, the specific pressure is reduced, which directly translates to increased load capacity and a more gentle operating mode for the cord.
Self-cleaning technology
Particular attention was paid to the drainage system. In the longitudinal channels of the tread, there are wavy injector protrusions. Their geometry is calculated to ensure that the centrifugal force expels stuck stones and debris outward. This prevents the "clogging" of the tread and eliminates the risk of bulge damage.
Powerful frame and rubber armour
For this model, the structure of the powerful belt was revised. A multi-layered frame with an enhanced breaker zone provides high resistance to rupture loads, which is critically important when working with the full mass of commercial vehicles. The second component is a special compound with high-molecular polymers. It has increased elasticity, allowing the tyre to withstand local overloads, cuts, and wear. The rubber compound works as a shock absorber, maintaining elasticity even at sub-zero temperatures, but not becoming too soft when overheated in summer.
Key features of the Chaoyang CR960A:
- an optimized profile and even pressure distribution in the contact patch are designed specifically for driven axles;
- the ribbed structure guarantees clear trajectory holding without steering correction, reducing driver fatigue on long hauls;
- the reinforced frame with high cord density provides a huge margin of strength;
- the rubber compound with resistance to scuffing and abrasion allows maintaining the working depth of the tread.
