Description Viatti Vettore Brina
The commercial tire Viatti Vettore Brina is designed for quite specific climatic conditions of the so-called "European winter". They are characterized by an air temperature of around 0 degrees Celsius with frequent transitions through this mark, causing significant changes in road conditions. This model copes with them simply perfectly, thanks to the use of modern technical solutions and materials in its design.
VRF Technology
One of such solutions is the VRF technology. The abbreviation is composed of the capital letters of English words that very accurately describe the essence of the innovation. This is a special design of the sidewalls, in which their rigidity changes depending on the road conditions. At low speed, the most gentle ride is provided, in which even significant impact is dampened. As the speed increases, the rigidity of the sidewalls gradually increases, giving the tire better stability and stability in behavior. I.e. it adapts to specific road conditions, providing a high level of comfort.
Resistant to Slushplaning
Russian tire manufacturers have developed a new drainage system specifically for this tire, called Hydro Save V. Its distinctive feature is the increased width of the grooves. At the same time, they are arranged in such a way that the tread most effectively pushes out the snow mass and water from under the contact patch. It is also worth noting the complex polygonal shape of the grooves and the sharpened edges of the tread blocks in the central part. This significantly accelerates the process of removing the water and snow mixture from the contact patch.
Stability at High Speed
The tire's tread has an open design, except for the central part, where a longitudinal rib runs. The absence of breaks gives this element rigidity, which accelerates the transmission of transverse forces to the bearing elements of the tire's design. This has a positive effect on directional stability, handling accuracy, and also increases stability during high-speed movement. In addition, it is worth noting the complex polygonal shape of the longitudinal rib. Thanks to this, the contact patch has a multitude of additional gripping edges. They increase the tire's performance when accelerating and braking.
Asymmetric Lamellas
The tire's tread is distinguished by the presence of many lamellas. Their total number exceeds several thousand. At the same time, the edges formed by them are inclined at different angles relative to the direction of movement. This feature provides the tire with high efficiency when accelerating and braking, regardless of the strength and direction of the acceleration forces.
Compound Adapted to "Minus" Temperatures
At negative temperatures of the external environment, the tread of this model retains its elasticity and, at the same time, its grip on a slippery surface. This property is ensured by the physical properties of the components in the rubber mixture. It contains "silica", which, in addition to elasticity, gives the tread resistance to abrasive wear.
Main Features of the Viatti Vettore Brina Tire
- variable sidewall stiffness allows the tire to adapt to specific road conditions;
- the sharp-angled shape of the blocks and the significant distance between them allows the tread to effectively combat slushplaning;
- the rigid longitudinal rib in the center prevents lateral skidding, giving the tire stability and reliability at high speed.
