With military tires safely through any terrain and terrain!

Many of us know the big and difficult ones Army vehicleswhich are used somewhere every day. But you don't see them permanently on German roads, but increasingly in impassable terrain. One reason is that the used Off-road tires Although they are street legal, they also brake significantly worse on wet asphalt than normal commercial tires for cars, for example. This was the result of a joint test by the well-known TÜV-Süd and the renowned “Auto-Illustrierte” magazine. So you are more likely for undeveloped and unpaved terrain designed. But not only military vehicles use these tires, but also other off-road vehicles. In order to be able to fully exploit the individual properties of military tires, they are mostly used powerful, large and special Vehicles installed.

For every terrain and terrain!

In order not to get stuck in muddy, sandy or uneven terrain, you need next concentrated horsepower The vehicle also has a tire profile that provides enough grip and driving stability so that the vehicle does not slip to the side when it goes over hill and dale or when sudden emergency braking is necessary.

Other aspects of military tires!

Just have to have military tires continuous endure a great deal of stress. When used in rough terrain or in various crisis areas, these have to withstand more than normal car or motorcycle tires. If, for example, a military vehicle has heavy equipment, machines or troops loaded, the weight increases and so does the individual tire load. Flexible axle designs and springs enable the vehicle to compensate for different underbody textures while driving. For example, when driving on sloping or stony terrain or crossing rivers, rigid axles and unstable tires can quickly become a safety risk. Robust military tires make up for this up to a point.

for civil and military special operations

If the vehicle tilts to the left or right, the tires must temporarily be able to withstand significantly more weight on one side. Here it also depends on the right one Air pressure at. As with other tires, military tires and their uses are different DIN standards and regulations. So-called are also suitable for slippery surfaces such as mud Mud tires. These are particularly suitable for such circumstances. Smaller salvages in muddy areas are also possible. In contrast to military tires, however, they are less flexible with regard to rough terrain such as sand, stones or other bumpy roads, especially since they are more likely to be used when using smaller off-road vehicles.

Expedition vehicles like that Ford F-550 Lariat 4 × 4 pickup, Fire and rescue vehicles need just like military vehicles special tires. It is not uncommon for military tires to be used for these as well. Specialized manufacturers offer a decent selection of models, profile depths, material properties and designs, which are designed for various uses. However, some tire models still require it in snow and slippery conditions snow chains.

REGROVING is often possible

The military tires can often also be used Regrooving. In the process, rubber is removed from the layer of the existing rubber in order to restore a tread depth that can be used again. Tires that are suitable for regrooving are marked accordingly. However, regrooving only works with tires with a sufficient rubber thickness. Only with such tires can a new profile be created without impairing the robustness of the tire.
