Tire specifications
DescriptionDescription Gremax Capturar WCH8
The Gremax Capturar WCH8 commercial winter tire is a high-tech product that offers far more advantages than many competitors in the same price range. This model is notable for its good traction on winter roads, while demonstrating excellent economic efficiency.
"Passenger" tread design
In developing the tread design, Asian tire manufacturers took as a basis the technical solutions characteristic, first of all, of passenger winter models. That's why it features a V-shaped arrangement and a large number of tread blocks. This solution allowed to improve the traction properties on snowy surfaces, while reducing rolling resistance and fuel consumption along with it.
Optimized tread profile
One of the characteristic features of the tire is the profile of its tread. In side projection, it has a trapezoidal shape with a small "radius" in the central part and an aggressive, but rounded, bend in the shoulder areas. Such a design, under load, significantly expands the contact patch, making it almost square. This noticeably reduces the magnitude of the specific pressure on the road surface. And the distribution of external load on the contact patch becomes uniform. As a result, the tire has a significant margin of bearing capacity, while the working surface of the tread is much less prone to wear, which increases the operational life of the tire. This design has a positive effect on handling, making it reliable and predictable.
High lamellization density
The tread has a high density of lamellae arrangement. This made it possible to significantly increase the number of gripping edges, which correspondingly affected the tire's ability to grip icy and snowy surfaces. This ability is very brightly expressed and allows for safe movement in difficult road conditions.
In this regard, it is necessary to note the scheme of groove arrangement. They are multidirectional, as are the edges formed by them. This additionally enhances the traction properties, ensuring their stability under various driving modes, such as braking or acceleration.
Moreover, such a density of lamellae arrangement indirectly indicates good tire manufacturing quality. To have these tread elements close to each other, high accuracy of mechanical processing of their edges is required. It is present in this tire.
Reliable traction in adverse weather conditions
Another advantage of the tire is its high-performance drainage system and its multifunctionality. Wide and deep longitudinal grooves perfectly handle the removal of both water and its mixture with snow from the contact patch, achieving good resistance to aquaplaning and slushplaning. At the same time, at the intersection of longitudinal and transverse grooves, the tread has the ability to capture and compact snow from the road surface. This significantly improves traction properties on snowy surfaces.
Main features of Gremax Capturar WCH8
- effective V-shaped tread pattern on snow and ice;
- increased load capacity and resistance to premature wear, due to the increased width of the contact patch and uniform distribution of load across it;
- high density of lamellae arrangement improves traction properties on slippery surfaces.
