Nankang SL6

The winter tire Nankang SL6 enjoys well-deserved popularity among owners of cargo vehicles operating in difficult winter conditions. When creating this model, innovative technologies and modern materials were used. Due to this, it was possible to achieve excellent operating parameters and high quality.

Updated tread pattern design

The Nankang SL6 tread consists of blocks of various shapes and a branched system of lamellas. The blocks of unusual shape in the central part of the tread provide excellent directional stability during straight-line movement. The elongated blocks in the lateral zone increase stability during maneuvers and provide reliable protection against punctures and damage. Four deep channels quickly remove water and snow from the tread, increasing self-cleaning and ensuring excellent stability and passability. The new lamella system increases stability on ice and reduces noise while driving. Even on a snowy surface, the tire demonstrates excellent stability and handling.

Updated rubber compound composition

To obtain the necessary characteristics at negative temperatures, new additives were used in the rubber compound. Silica helped to ensure excellent elasticity in winter conditions, which increased the restoring properties of the tread. This also had a positive effect on the tire's traction characteristics. Silicon increased the wear-resistant qualities of the rubber, ensuring a longer service life. The updated rubber compound contributed to a reduction in rolling resistance, which reduced fuel consumption and increased stability while driving.

Main features of the Nankang SL6 model

- excellent traction at negative temperatures is achieved due to the use of an updated rubber compound;
- increased stability is provided by the reinforced shoulder area and the new structure of the blocks located in the central part of the tread;
- minimal noise while driving was achieved due to the use of an increased number of lamellas of various depths and shapes;
- reduced fuel consumption is ensured by a reduced rolling coefficient;
- a long service life is achieved due to the use of special additives in the rubber compound and an increased tread depth.
