The winter tire Nordexx NA6000 Van is a specialized solution designed to provide mobility and safety for light commercial vehicles. Developed with consideration of the specific loads and operating modes of vans and small trucks, it offers a complex of technologies to combat ice, deep snow, and low temperatures, minimizing downtime and increasing the predictability of vehicle behavior.
The base of the tire is an asymmetrical non-directional tread pattern, optimized for commercial loads. Four powerful longitudinal ribs, formed from blocks of variable length. This design creates several continuous lines of contact, ensuring directional stability under load, and at the same time allows the blocks to work independently for better traction. High density of 3D lamellas on each block. They perform a dual function: they create multiple cutting edges for grip on snow and compacted ice, and their three-dimensional structure prevents excessive block closure, maintaining flexibility and elasticity of the tread. Wide and deep drainage channels between the ribs effectively remove snow slush and water, counteracting hydroplaning and slushing, which is critical for maintaining controllability during thawing periods.
The rubber compound includes special plasticizers that allow maintaining elasticity at temperatures down to -40°C. This ensures constant dense contact of the tread with the surface and the operation of the lamellas, extending the life of the tire and maintaining stable characteristics. The reinforced carcass with additional layers of metal cord is designed for high load indices characteristic of vans. It effectively resists deformations, ensuring stability of the contact patch, even wear, and protection from damage when contacting curbs or irregularities of the winter road.
Key features of Nordexx NA6000 Van:
- installation on a wide range of light commercial vehicles operating in winter conditions;
- a combination of cryostable mixture and 3D lamellas for safety on slippery surfaces;
- an enhanced design, designed for full loading and operation in harsh road conditions;
- the geometry of the grooves for rapid removal of snow mass and water, preventing clogging and maintaining traction.
