One of the key features of the Doublestar DS116R cargo tire is its wide range of applications. This model is favorably distinguished by the possibility of operation, both on the steering and driving axles, not only of trucks but also of buses used in the sphere of intercity and interregional transportation. The design of this tire is perfectly adapted for operation on high-speed highways, where it demonstrates excellent traction, fuel efficiency, and superior wear resistance.
S-shaped transverse lamellas
The first thing that catches the eye is the large number of S-shaped lamellas that stretch across the entire tread pattern. These tread elements, when in contact with the road surface, form numerous traction edges. Thanks to this, the tire, when installed on the steering axle, demonstrates high braking efficiency, and on the driving axle - excellent traction properties in the longitudinal direction.
Five rigid longitudinal ribs
The symmetrical non-directional tread pattern of this model contains five very wide longitudinal ribs, which are highly resistant to dynamic deformation. This design provides the tire with a number of important qualities. First of all, it is the optimized distribution of external weight on the contact patch, which is achieved due to the almost equal size of the tread ribs. On the one hand, this feature improves handling characteristics, and on the other hand, it contributes to an increase in the service life of the tread, due to increased resistance to uneven wear. It is also worth noting the significant size of the contact patch, which contributes to improved traction on dry roads.
Excellent traction properties on wet roads
Another beneficial feature of this model is the increased traction properties on wet roads. They are provided due to the high performance of the drainage system, which consists of four very wide drainage grooves that run between the longitudinal ribs. Their volume is sufficient to divert even a significant amount of water from the contact patch.
