Description Tornado GL268D
Tornado GL268D — a tire for medium-duty commercial vehicles and bus equipment used for long-distance routes. It is characterized by low rolling resistance, stable traction properties on both dry and wet asphalt, and an extended service life.
The tread features numerous medium-sized block structures that form six circumferential ribs. The blocks themselves have a checkerboard arrangement, which improves traction and reduces braking distance. In addition, this tread structure minimizes the likelihood of air turbulence in the tire grooves, resulting in improved acoustic comfort.
The model is based on a 16-layer carcass, part of which is made up of nylon elements. This provides a high degree of elasticity, ensuring protection against deformation and local impacts. The result is an extended service life with preserved working properties. To this, we add a special compound reinforced with additives that neutralize abrasive wear.
Key features of Tornado GL268D:
- use on medium-duty vehicles and some buses;
- installation on the drive axle, where the tire provides confident handling at various speed modes;
- a deep tread with a developed block system provides effective traction and serves as a passive protection against mechanical impacts;
- numerous channels forming an extensive drainage network are capable of quickly draining water and dirt from the contact area, minimizing the risk of hydroplaning
