The Esa-Tecar Super Grip 7 passenger tire can only be considered a winter tire with some reservations. It was developed with the specific operating conditions in Western Europe's winter conditions in mind, which are characterized by frequent temperature fluctuations in the zero zone. Other notable features of this model include an aggressive V-shaped tread pattern and enhanced durability.
Increased number of traction edges
A characteristic feature of the V-shaped symmetrical directional tread pattern is the presence of a large number of traction edges. A significant portion of these is formed by numerous arrow-shaped blocks that stretch across the entire tread. This has made it possible to significantly increase the length of the traction edges, which has had a positive impact on the tire's traction in the longitudinal direction.
Confident behavior on ice
The lack of studs on the Esa-Tecar Super Grip 7 cannot be considered a disadvantage of this model, as its tread contains a multitude of wavy lamellas. These tread elements, due to their design and significant quantity, more than compensate for the lack of studs. When in contact with the road, they open up, forming a multitude of sharp edges that easily penetrate the water film on ice, providing the tire with reliable traction. At the same time, the wavy walls of the lamellas are tightly fixed to each other, increasing the stiffness of the blocks and, thereby, the handling on dry roads.
High-performance drainage system
Despite the lack of longitudinal grooves, the drainage system of this tire is highly efficient. This is achieved through the increased size and number of transverse channels. All of them have a curved shape, which reduces the likelihood of water vortex formation, ensuring a higher water circulation speed and significantly improving resistance to aquaplaning.
Key features of the Esa-Tecar Super Grip 7 model
- the original V-shaped design of the symmetrical directional tread pattern allows for confident movement on any winter roads, regardless of weather conditions;
- excellent directional stability due to the high structural stiffness of the central part of the tread;
- excellent traction properties in the longitudinal direction are achieved due to the presence of a large number of transverse traction edges formed by numerous individual blocks and wavy lamellas.
