Gripmax Black Panther

The application area of the summer tire Gripmax Black Panther — dynamic versions of passenger cars. The model is focused on stable behavior at high speeds and reliable traction in any summer weather conditions, providing confidence on the highway and in dense city traffic.

The impressive tread pattern is made in an asymmetric design, combining wide intersecting curved grooves and large blocks with differently directed edges. The outer side has increased stiffness — massive elements guarantee stability on a straight line, precise response to steering commands, and even pressure distribution in the contact patch. The inner part, on the contrary, is optimized for efficient water removal: a developed system of transverse channels reduces the risk of hydroplaning and increases the reliability of traction on a wet surface.

The rubber compound is made using the High Grip Silica Compound technology, based on the use of highly dispersed silica and elastic polymers of a new generation. Such a mixture preserves strength and elasticity during temperature fluctuations, providing reliable traction on both dry and wet asphalt. It reduces heat generation, which directly affects durability and reduces fuel consumption.

The tire carcass is made using a special technology that combines strong synthetic fibers with a lightweight metal cord made of a steel wire with a reduced cross-section. This increases resistance to deformations during sharp maneuvers and extends the service life of the sidewalls without weighing down the structure. An additional advantage of the model is the use of a noise-absorbing profile with a variable block pitch, which reduces the level of noise and vibrations during movement.

Main features of Gripmax Black Panther:
- Asymmetric tread design combines sporty characteristics with safety on wet roads;
- Special compound improves traction and reduces wear;
- Special carcass structure increases resistance to loads and mechanical damage.
