Tornado GL286A – a commercial tire used on heavy cargo vehicles. It is distinguished by its versatility of application, which is realized in the possibility of installation on both the driving and trailer axles. It can be used in a year-round mode, providing a high level of traction and grip in any weather.
The model is designed specifically for long-distance trips, guaranteeing stability of working characteristics over many seasons. This was achieved through the optimization of the tread and the use of a special compound that effectively resists abrasive wear. The center of the tread is occupied by three rib structures with wavy edges. Thanks to them, two properties are achieved at once – directional stability and improved traction. Closed shoulder areas increase the contact area, contributing to a reduction in load and an increase in carrying capacity. This same factor has a positive effect on the evenness of wear, extending the service life.
The basis of the compound is special artificial components that provide protection against rapid wear and maintain elasticity under various temperature regimes. As a result, the tire is able to maintain its performance in a year-round mode.
Key features of Tornado GL286A:
- use in any period of the year on heavy commercial vehicles;
- versatility of installation on both the driving and trailer axles;
- minimization of rolling resistance, ensuring fuel savings;
- confident maneuverability at speed due to the rib structure in the center;
- protection against rapid wear due to the even distribution of load across the entire area of the wide contact zone
