Michelin Primacy 3 tires

Michelin Tyre range represents a new generation of Primacy-bus ** 3 ** Michelin Primacy intended for installation on a wide range of passenger cars, which will go on sale in the markets of Russia and CIS countries in the spring of the year 2013. This summer tyre ushers in a new era of security on the road for all those to whom it is important to have a sense of confidence for himself and his passengers by driving in all weather conditions. In comparison with the previous model novelty provides a higher level of security, superior in three directions: dry, wet and while cornering. Improvements in three aspects of security are reflected in the title of the tyres- Primacy 3 . Moreover, in addition to coupling properties distinguish traditionally high performance tyre in two directions: the need and fuel efficiency. To ensure this, the Michelin company characteristics in combination has launched an innovative development process that was based on a thorough analysis of the causes of road accidents in Europe. To demonstrate the features ** 3 ** Michelin Primacy independent test centre TÜV SÜD Automotive (Germany) and Idiada (Spain) in the 2011 year comparative tests were conducted with the previous model tires from MICHELIN in two sizes 205/55R16 225/45R17 V and W.

** 3 ** Michelin Primacy indicates better performance when braking on dry roads. With a drastic decline in speed from 100 km/h to standstill brake path ** Michelin Primacy 3 ** 2 m shorter than its predecessor. Important: 70% of accidents occur on dry roads.

** 3 ** Michelin Primacy indicates better performance when braking on a wet surface. With a drastic decline in speed from 80 km/h to standstill brake path ** Michelin Primacy 3 ** 1.5 m shorter than its predecessor. Important: 99% of accidents on wet roads occur when there is a very thin layer of water.

** 3 ** Michelin Primacy provides exceptional grip when cornering on wet coating is improved by 4% compared to the previous model. Important: 25% of accidents occur when entering a turn (of which 50% on wet roads) and accidents of this type is the most serious.

It should be noted three technological innovations used in new bus ** 3 ** Michelin Primacy, because they play a special role in ensuring its safety performance.

The new bus all tread blocks have smoothed edge to reduce deformation during braking. In contact with right angle plated tread block worsens grip because of its spicy side can catch, reduce the contact area between the block and the surface. Considering the amount of tread contact patch losses can be substantial. Smoothed edge allows you to block most effectively on the surface that improves grip.

Tyre requirements are such that under heavy braking or entering the turn on wet or dry roads, it is important that the rubber to road contact area was the maximum. For ** 3 ** Michelin Primacy has developed a new patented tread design with self-locking Sipes. Vzaimosmykaûtsâ slats and make blocks more resistant, do not allow them to become deformed and thus improve traction with the road surface. In addition, the slats were manufactured on a revolutionary technology that allowed to reduce their thickness up to two tenths of a millimeter. This means that they are two or three times thinner Sipes winter tires.

The new patented tread compound of Michelin Primacy ** 3 ** optimizes grip in all conditions, not deteriorating other characteristics, in particular, fuel efficiency and durability. The new mixture is a unique complex combination of three elastomers, strengthening agent based on silica and synthetic plasticizer. Not only the ingredients make a mixture of innovation, but also, more importantly, the optimal dosage and mixing.

The joint work of all three elements of the tires Michelin Primacy ** 3 ** allows us not only to improve grip on dry and wet roads in longitudinal and transverse direction, but also maintain a high level of performance.

In addition, the new tire has become more fuel efficient. This has been achieved through improved bus architecture, which added additional layers to reduce structural mikrodeformacii tires and, consequently, reduced heat loss, leading to an increase in fuel consumption. Note that applied when you create tires Michelin Primacy ** 3 ** new materials also differ very low teploobrazovaniem, which has a positive effect on its fuel efficiency.

Demand for tires with an uprated safety and profitability-specifications-car models will increase consistently. New tires ** 3 ** Michelin Primacy already meet these requirements. Before the release of the tyres on the market, automakers were interested in supplying tires to the primary installation: Michelin is working on 30 omologacionnymi projects to equip 20 major new car models 2011-2012 biennium. Today tyres ** 3 ** Michelin Primacy is already omologirovanny for installation on models such as the BMW 7, Audi A6, Ford Mondeo, Mercedes S-class, Nissan Juke, Volvo S 80, etc.

In the year 2013 on the Russian and CIS market bus ** 3 ** Michelin Primacy will be available in 18 different sizes with speed indices H, V, W, Y, height 60 -40 and diameter 16-19 inches.
