Description Michelin X Force ZH
The commercial tire Michelin X Force ZH is designed for trucks used predominantly in the construction industry. It can be installed on any axle. It is characterized by a long service life and reliability in adverse operating conditions, as well as improved traction properties.
Universal tread pattern
The design of the tread pattern largely determines the versatility of this tire, which can not only be installed on any axle but also used throughout the year, including the winter period. The pattern consists of three longitudinal rows of blocks of complex polygonal shape. When moving, they form a multitude of differently directed edges of great height, thanks to which the tire retains its effectiveness even on unpaved surfaces.
The central blocks have the largest dimensions. This significantly reduces the level of aggressive impact on the tread, reducing the risk of damage and premature wear. The shoulder blocks of trapezoidal shape improve the longitudinal grip properties, as well as stability and handling during maneuvering.
Reinforced carcass
The tire's design is based on a multi-layered carcass. Several steel cords provide the tire with not only high carrying capacity. The multi-layered carcass, having a solid margin of strength, withstands even the most serious impact without damage, preventing tire damage in the most adverse operating conditions.
Possibility of increasing mileage
Despite the specific sphere of application and operating conditions, this tire has access to tread pattern restoration technology. This uses the method of re-cutting the pattern. The only limitation on its application is the residual tread depth, which must be at least 4 mm. In this case, the width of the cut grooves will be from 12 to 14 mm.
Optimized rubber compound
The tire's tread is made from a compound whose operational properties have been specially selected taking into account the characteristics of the operation of trucks in the industrial sector. The mixture contains a number of components that significantly increase the strength of the tread on rupture and tension. As a result, the tire is extremely resistant to punctures and cuts even in the most difficult road conditions.
