Pirelli Scorpion A/T – a summer tire from the renowned manufacturer, which belongs to the "off-road" models. Designed for installation on four-wheel drive SUVs, operated both in the city and on rough terrain. Characterized by increased strength, effective traction properties, and an extended service life.
The model was developed using advanced technologies, which significantly improved its performance characteristics. The tread base consists of irregularly shaped blocks, each of which has notches that form additional gripping edges. This has made it possible to increase the passability on viscous, loose, and soft soil, minimizing the risk of skidding. The "shoulder" area also deserves attention, the elements of which extend to the sidewalls. This solution has made it possible to effectively counteract "stickiness", increasing the vehicle's passability in off-road conditions. Additionally, the side blocks perform the role of protection against damage from sharp objects, increasing the tire's service life.
The internal frame also plays a significant role in ensuring the tire's performance, which in this case is represented by a reinforced structure. In combination with a durable compound, it is able to withstand increased loads, resisting not only local shock loads but also general centrifugal effects. This allows the contact area to maintain its shape, reflecting on the effectiveness of the traction properties.
As a rubber compound, a mixture is used here that is distinguished by its resistance to wear and mechanical stress. Such performance was achieved through the inclusion of modern synthetic compounds in its composition.
Key features of Pirelli Scorpion A/T:
- an "off-road" tire that stands out for its versatility of application, both on asphalt and on rough terrain;
- a developed block structure of the tread, represented by large blocks, able to effectively maintain reliable traction, both on rocky and soft soil;
- reliable protection against damage, implemented through high block structures, a special rubber compound, and a reinforced frame;
- increased resistance to deformation thanks to sidewalls made of a compound with increased elasticity
