Tunga C-140 – winter tire from the Russian manufacturer is beneficially distinguished by its operational qualities. Among them, one can note the maximally effective adaptation to the harsh conditions of Russian winters.
Rubber compound
It was developed with the intention of maintaining its properties under any temperature conditions. These indicators were achieved due to the use of special polymers that preserve elasticity even in severe frosts.
Tread and its specifics
The tread pattern has a directional type and is represented by massive blocks separated by deep channels. Two of them, longitudinally oriented, are located in the middle zone and interact with the diagonally oriented depressions of the central part. This creates optimal conditions for the removal of water and snow masses.
The presence of a large number of edges created by the blocks, in combination with the compound composition, provides confident behavior of the tire even on slippery surfaces, while maintaining vehicle control.
Studding
To improve the passability of icy road sections, the manufacturer used studding. Moreover, the studs are arranged here according to a scheme that minimizes the formation of a noise effect, ensuring driving comfort.
Stability on turns
To ensure maneuverability, the side zones were divided into massive blocks by deep channels. The latter are an integral part of the system to protect against aquaplaning and slaloming. In addition, their numerous edges effectively grip the road surface, providing vehicle stability when maneuvering.
Main features of the Ural C-140 Tunga tire
- developed taking into account the peculiarities of operation in the conditions of the Russian winter;
- equipped with numerous tread blocks with a large number of gripping edges;
- effectively counteracts hydroplaning and slaloming.
