Michelin Alpin A5 tires

In February 2014, the company ** Michelin ** introduced a new winter tire for passenger cars- Michelin Alpin A5 . The model is nešipovannoj fifth-generation winter tyre and intended for European countries and those of the CIS countries, where the winter roads remain predominantly "black" — that is, not covered up by snow and not covered by ice crust for a few months in a year. New Michelin Alpin A5 was developed with a view to ensuring the highest level of security in all winter driving conditions during the period from October to April. Technology used in the creation of the Alpin A5, allow to guarantee the maximum level of safety in all driving conditions, even on wet roads. This is the advantage and effectiveness of new tires. It provides a grip when the road surface can no longer do so, thanks to what motorists can drive more safely. New tire raised to a new level of absolutely all the features of the previous model, especially those from which depends the safety under different conditions in winter. ** Tyre Michelin Alpin A5 ** merged two extremely advanced technology. One of them relates to the tread pattern, tread block are the part that ensures contact with the road. Another has to do with the silica tread compound. Alpin model A5 different directional tread pattern with deep grooves and numerous curving blocks. The value of negative profile on 17% higher than the previous generation bus. Thanks to this tire more effectively overcomes the snowy patches. Offset circumferential water confidently and reduces the chance of hydroplaning. Slats function as thousands of small claws, holding for a surface and improve the transfer of traction. Compared with the previous model, Alpin has 16 A5% more Sipes this particular form of. Tractive effort also provided increased 12% in the number of sectors, each face of which is also capable of effectively bite into snow. Tread re-shaped for self-locking function has been designed within the framework of the technology "StabiliGrip". The longer contact patch, the better grip. Tires are deformed with each rotation of the wheel. Therefore, Michelin's engineers sent their efforts on creating a new contact form, which has the effect of self-locking and increases steering precision. For cold wet grip compound should include new silica compound in large proportions. For the first time Michelin has used the compound for its winter tyres functional elastomers. This new process called Innovative Tread Compound Technology (technology tread rubber composition). Due to the higher proportion of silica in these functional elastomers compound designed to make more uniform. Thanks to the improved grip on wet and snowy surfaces, and save high energy efficiency. New rubber compound is created by Helio Compound technology fourth generation. It involves the use of sunflower oil to work more efficiently at low temperatures. ** Bus Alpin A5 ** is among the winter tires ** Michelin , intended for different types of cars, operating conditions and climatic conditions. ** Bus Alpin A5 ** is among the winter tires ** Michelin , intended for different types of cars, operating conditions and climatic conditions.
