studdable tires
The correct name should be called a snow tire with nails. That is, in the use of snow and ice road tires embedded tire studs. The end of the anti-skid Nail in contact with the road surface is embedded with a nail head made of cemented carbide. The shape and weight of the tire studs evolve gradually as shown in the figure. From the first generation of anti-slip nail products have been four generations of products, they are towards miniaturization and lightweight, the direction of development.
Classification of various tire studs
Tire studs are mainly used for small car tires, and hollow tire studs are used for large car tires. In addition, in accordance with the pin head inlay method, can also be divided into two riveting embedded. The hardness of the nail head of the embedded anti-skid nail changes with the wear speed of the tire, while the nail head of the riveted anti-skid nail gradually enters into the nail rod with the wear of the tire during the use of the riveted anti-skid nail, the nail head can always maintain a fixed protruding height. The difference is that the hardness of embedded head is lower, while the hardness of riveting head is higher.
Restricted use
Anti-skid studs can be used for bias tyres and Radial tire, but for bias tyres, the crown surface is slippery and the kinetic ratio is Radial tire because of the contact with the road surface, make tire studs on the road caused by wear and tear. As a result, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, France and other countries to limit the use of non-slip nails only Radial tire.
About winter tires
Winter tires, that is, can be used in the snow and ice on the tires. Snow tires, non-slip studded tires and tires with similar non-slip, nail properties, and tires available all year round, can be used in winter. When a car is on a snow-covered or ice-covered road, the tyres it needs to run on are affected by the state of the road, weather conditions, snow quality and traffic conditions.
In Europe
Snow tires are usually used in areas where there is snow or ice in winter. Non-slip studded tyres are also used in northern Europe, Switzerland and Austria, while general purpose tyres or similar non-slip studded tyres are generally not used in Europe. That is, most of the tires used in Europe are snow tires.
In North
The number of four seasons general tires has increased dramatically. In the car, the new car installed around the tire and around the tire retreading are the four seasons of general, tires. However, in places such as the northern United States and Canada, summer tires are mostly replaced with snow tires in winter.
In Japan
Snow tires, non-slip ribbed tires, non-slip ribbed tires, are the main winter use of tires. In addition, there are many tires equipped with non-slip belt or non-slip chain.
