Tyres Barkley

The Barkley brand was established in the mid-1970s in China. Currently, the company is among the top five Asian tire manufacturers with an annual production of around 40 million units. The development and production process utilizes technologies from leading European companies, ensuring stable and high-quality tires.

The range of Barkley truck tires includes several dozen models, divided into the following categories:

- regional transportation;
- long-haul transportation;
- mixed operating conditions;
- urban freight and passenger transportation.

"Regional" truck tires make up a significant part of the brand's product range. This is due to the fact that each model is designed for use in specific conditions, such as on the steering or trailer axle, on roads with varying surface quality. Another feature is the increased tread depth, with some models reaching an impressive 13 mm. This significantly increases the tire's mileage, reducing the risk of damage.

Long-haul truck tires also have a number of distinctive features. First and foremost, it's the tread profile and pattern design, which increases the contact patch, reduces rolling resistance, and prevents rapid wear. Additionally, special compounds are used that are not only resistant to wear, punctures, and tears but also, due to their increased thermal conductivity, reduce the heat buildup of the tire during prolonged high-speed driving.

Tires for mixed conditions can be divided into two parts. One part is represented by models that are more effective on asphalt roads. These tires are characterized by a combination of "highway" tread patterns, reinforced with additional layers of cord carcass, and increased strength of the rubber compound. The other part of the "mixed" tires of the brand has aggressive tread patterns with open shoulder zones, ensuring high traction and stability on loose gravel surfaces. The models are distinguished by an increased thickness of the tread and sidewalls, which further reduces the risk of their penetration damage on off-road terrain. As a rule, these tires are ideal for use in trucks, concrete mixers, and garbage trucks.

Tires for urban freight and passenger transportation are universal tires designed for installation on any axle of commercial equipment. Externally, they are distinguished by a "highway" tread pattern and a tread profile that increases the contact patch, reduces fuel consumption, and wear. A distinctive feature is the tread depth - these are "off-road" 20 mm, which increases the tire's mileage, especially when used in urban conditions, where the level of abrasive impact is much higher than that of analogs for long-haul transportation.
