procedures and has obtained ISO9001:2000 and ISO/TS16949:2002 accreditation for

all of ve key manufacturing plants. In addition, all plants have obtained or are in the

process of obtaining ISO14001 Environmental Management System Accreditation.

GT RADIALs research and development efforts have enabled the development of

international standard products and have also helped improve product design and

production technology to maintain a leading market position. In addition to in-house

research and development capabilities, GT RADIAL also collaborates with various

leading universities and top research institutions such as National Quality Examination

Centre for Rubber Tire, Smithers Research Laboratories, USA and TUV Automotive

GmbH Tire/Wheel Test Centre in Germany.

GT RADIAL has made a signicant investment in our own tire testing facility, ETC,

European Test Centre, which is located at the internationally acclaimed MIRA Ltd

(Motor Industry Research Association).

The ETC technical operation provides development and evaluation capacity to

GT Radials Research and Development Centre. ETC is employed in the development

of tire products for both European and worldwide applications for both replacement

and original equipment markets

Cap & BaseTread design

Cap layer provides wear resistant

qualities and the base rubber

between the top layer and the

casing includes a special cooler

running formulation insulating

casing from heat build up.

Base is cool-

running,insulates

casing from heat

Advanced design

delivers higher mileage

performance, increased

retreadability and

improved reliability

Stone Ejector

Stone Ejector prevents stone trapping

in the grooves and reduces the riskof penetration into the tire belts,

which can cause rust inside the tire

construction and signicantly reduce

tire performance.

Ex-Depth Solid Shoulderincreased volume on the

shoulder area resulting in

more even wear especially

on long haul applications.

Ex-Depth Open Shoulderallows greater traction

and improved resistance

to heel and toe wear.

Improved casing life

expectancy through

increased resistance

to road hazards

Sidewall Protection Ribs

Equal Force Carcass

EFC is GT RADIAL Tires specially designed

carcass technology enabling an optimal

tire footprint and equal force distribution

resulting in both better control and regular

tread wear.

Soft Bead ller

helps provide a

more comfortable

ride and smoother

handling

Hard Bead

Filler is stiff for

Under-ination

Caution:

Driving with insufcient pressure can damage your tires. After having driven with an

underinated tire, do not re-inate tires: have your tires fully checked by an expert.

!

ADVICEBEFOREINFLATION

1Weigh your vehicle and its load, axle by

axle, to determine tire pressure.

2

Measure the pressure when cold

(when the vehicle has been stationary

for several hours): Pressures must be

checked at regular intervals and during

each service.

3 Important safety instruction: Pressureincreases when the vehicle is in motion,

never reduce the pressure of a hot tire.

4

Pressure gauges:must be accurate,

handled with care and calibrated

Servicing of Tube type tires on Multi piece rims

Scope.These guidelines apply to the servicing of vehicle wheels mounted with tube-type tires

tted to multi-piece rims.

Denition.Multi piece rim (sometimes referred to as split rim) means a vehicle commercial wheel

rim consisting of two or more parts, one of which is a locking ring designed to hold the

tire on the rim by tension on interlocking components when the tire is inated.

Do not mount or demount a multi piece wheel/rim without fully understanding

sections 1 - 13 (explain on the next page), or before receiving proper training.!

Firstly, it is important to understand that the various tasks involved in the stripping and rebuilding

of multi-piece wheels are far more hazardous than those on single piece wheels. To eliminatepotentially fatal incidents when working with multi-piece rims, be sure to understand and follow all

procedures and safety instructions according to the wheel manufacturer.

There are several different types of multi-piece rim and it is ESSENTIAL that component parts are

NOT mixed between the different types. When demounting a tire from a multi-piece rim, always

keep loose anges and locking rings together with the rim base from which they were removed.

Good mounting practises and procedures are also important in order to obtain optimum tire

performance and operating efciency.

Servicing of Tube type tires on Multi piece rims

1 Before demounting from the rim base, tires MUST be completely deated by removal of the valvecore.

2 Before the wheel is removed from the vehicles axle, the valve core must be removed and the tirefully deated when either condition a or b below is noted:

A. The tire has been operated underinated at 80% or less, of its recommended pressure, OR

B. There is discernible or suspected damage to the tire or wheel components.

3 Before assembly, wheel components should be inspected, and damaged rim components mustnot be reused. Mating surfaces must be free of dirt, surface rust, scale and rubber buildup before

mounting a tube type tire to a rim base. Use a de-scaling hammer or similar to remove rust build

up, nishing with a hand held wire brush. NOTE ALWAYS wear P.P.E. (Personal Protective

Equipment) especially eye protection and ear protection during this task.

4 Using a vacuum cleaner, ensure the tire is completely clean inside and free from all debris anddust.

5 Using talcum powder or similar, lightly powder the tube and ap before assembling into tire. Thisassists in the rounding out of the tube and avoids chang when in service. Do not allow the tube

or ap to lay on a dirty ground surface as this will cause contamination and potential failure in

service!

6 Apply a non water based rubber lubricant to bead area of the tire and rim base mating surfacesupon wheel assembly. This assists in correct seating of tire when inating.

7 Air pressure must not exceed 1 bar (15 p.s.i) whilst seating the ange and locking ring when a tireis being partially inated without a restraining device.

8 Once all components are seated correctly with pressure not exceeding onebar pressure, the built up tire / wheel assembly should be placed vertically

into a restraining device such as a suitable safety cage, with the locking

ring facing the wall. Once in position, nal ination to the recommended

operating pressure can take place. See image right. Always check the cage

manufactures recommendations.

9 The tire ination gauge should have a minimum 3 meters of hose betweenthe valve connector and the hand held gauge, and the operator should stand

this distance away from the tire in line with the tread see image right.

3m

10 Whilst the tire is pressurized, components must not be struck or forced to correct the seating ofanges or locking rings.


48/52

47

11 There should be no contact between the person performing the task or unit of equipment and arestraining device during tire ination.

12 After ination, tires, rims and locking rings should be visually inspected while within the restrainingdevice to ensure correct seating and locking. If adjustment is necessary the tire must rst be

deated by valve core removal and the process restarted again.

13 Once nally inated to the correct operating pressure, the tire should be left in the restrainingdevice for a minimum of ve minutes before re-checking nal pressure. NOTE - there is often

a settling down in tube type tires that produces some pressure loss. This is mainly caused

by trapped air between the tube and tire during assembly. After nal pressurization t a high

pressure valve cap.

!

NOTES

Rims, anges and locking rings should never be repaired by heating or welding.

Never inate a tire beyond the maximum pressure recommended by the manufacture.

Never work on an inated tire.

If a tire has been run at or grossly underinated, it must be removed from the rim and examined

by a qualied person before re-inating.

Remember, if the tire or any of the components show any signs of damage that might cause

failure on ination or failure when back in service, do not attempt to rebuild the assembly.

Never try to adjust incorrectly seated components by hammering whilst the tire is inated.

If there is any doubt over the integrity of component parts always deate the assembly and

remove the tire.
