Tires versatileees engineered for steer, drive and trailer positions in the Jamaican roads. Simplificthe inventory for your fleet with a tire that works in each axle, from the Coastal Highway up to the 4G-grade roads.
The all-position tires for commercial truck represent a category of engineering of tires engineered for perform acceptably well in each axle of a combination tractor-trailer. While that tires dedicateds of steer, drive and trailer are optimizeds each a for a set specific of requires, the all-position tires are designed with rolling bands, compounds and constructiones that balance the requirements of the three positions in a single product versatilee.
The concepto behind of the all-position tires is sencillo: a tread design that byields suficiente lateral stability for the use in steer axle, drive suficiente for applications in drive axle and a rolling resistance the sufficiently low for a installation efficient in trailer. Achieve this balance requires compromises cuidatwoos of engineering. The design of the rolling tread standard presents a pattern multi-rib with laminillas that provide precision of steer in the front axle, the time that offer grip when instalan in drive positions. The compound should resist the high heat generation of the drive positions, maintaining to at the same time the low hysteresis necessary for rolling efficient and diesel savings in trailers.
In the industry of the commercial transport, the all-position tires a times to them llama tires of free-rolling, a term very used in Jamaica and the rest of South America. The term free-rolling denotto a axle that is not driven by the tren drive and no aporta steer to the vehicle, essentially to axle that is not of drive ni of steer and that could being to axle tag, axle pusher or any axle in a trailer. Like the positions of free-rolling share features both with the trailer positions as with the of steer, tires engineered for free-rolling are inherentely capaces in all position.
The line all position of Hanksugi for Jamaica includes the HS76, the HS56 and the HS26+ Zeus Grip, with technologys of compound developeds specifically for the conditions road Jamaican. These tires are engineered for rendir in routes demanding as Kingston-Portmore, Spanish Town-Mandeville, the Coastal Highway and the roads 4G, where fleets face changes of altitud, weathers varied and mixed surfaces.
The all-position tires offer a fleet managers advantages practices that extend beyond tire performance on its own. The operating benefits and financial of a strategy of all-position tires can transformar the way in that administras your inventory of tires and your operations of maintenance.
Keep a single model of tire in inventory instead of SKU sestandings for steer, drive and trailer. Less numbers of reference significan less espacio in warehouse, lower costs of maintenance of inventory and decisionis purchase more single. The fleets medianas standard reduce the costs of inventory of tires in a 20-30% with a strategy all position.
Instalthe same tire in any axle of any truck for your fleet. This eliminthe espera by the reached of tires specifics by position and allows the equipment of maintenance instalar the tire that is available, reducing the downtime and improving the utilization of the truck.
Each SKU of tire additional adds complexity a your operation. The all-position tires consolidateste your program of tires, simplifying everything, from the management of suppliers and the negotiation of contracts up to the training of technical and the programming of retreads.
When a tire failure on the highway, the process of replacement is faster when any tire in inventory sirve for any position. The all-position tires eliminan the risk of that a truck quede stranded because the dealer closer toest no has the tire specific by position available.
The all-position tires can brokenr between positions as wear, maximizing the total mileage of the casing. A tire that begins in a steer axle can mover to a trailer position to the desgastarse the rolling tread, extracting the maximum value before the retreading.
The tracking of the cost per kilometer is more sencillo when measures a single model of tire in all positions. The datos consistent allow best forecasts, budgets more precises and comparisones more clear to the evaluate the tire performance.
Choosing between all-position tires and tires dedicateds by position depends on the profile operating, the routes and the priorities for your fleet. No approach is universally superior. The choice correct depends on how operate your trucks day a day.
The all-position tires are the better option for regional fleets, operations of pickup and deliveries, and applications mixed service where trucks encuentran conditions road varied and make frequent stops. These operations benefit more than the flexibility of the inventory and the capacity of instalar any tire available in any axle without delays. The fleets with types various of equipo, from rigid trucks up to tractor-trailers, also benefit because a sothe all-position tire can serve in all the fleet without mattersr the configuration of the vehicle.
The tires dedicateds by position have more direction for fleets of long driving that operate routes consistent at speeds sustained of highway. In applications pure of long-haul, the design of ribs optimized of a dedicated tire of steer offers a steering stability more than throughout hundreds of thousands of highway kms. The deeper tread and the aggressive design of lugs of a dedicated tire of drive provide better drive in conditions of uphill of colinas and invernales. The compound of rolling resistance ultrabaja of a dedicated tire of trailer offers the maximum diesel savings possible when the unique function of the tire is to roll efficiently behind of the tractor-trailer.
| Factor | All-Position Tires | Position-Specific Tires |
|---|---|---|
| Complexity of the inventory | Low (1 SKU) | High (3+ SKU) |
| Performance of steer | Good | Excellent |
| Drive in drive axle | Good | Excellent |
| Efficiency of diesthe in trailer | Good | The better of its clase |
| Flexibility of installation | Cualquier axle, any truck | Only specific by position |
| Best for | Regional, pickup and deliveries, mixed service | Long driven, routes dedicateds |
| Reemterm of emergency | Sirve any tire | Should coincidir with the position |
Many fleet managers are used to approach hybrid: tires dedicateds of steer and drive in tractor-trailers line-haul, combineds with all-position tires in regional trucks and as replacement of emergency. This strategy capture the advantagis of tire performances dedicateds where more matter, maintaining to at the same time the flexibility of the all-position tires where ssimplicity operating is the priority.

The all-position tires require maintenance atento to deliver all your potential of performance in each axle position. Like these tires comply multiple roles, the practices of maintenance should considerar the specific requirements of the position that occupies the tire in that moment.
The inflation pressure optimal for a all-position tire varies depending on where is installed. In a steer axle, the tire supports the weight of the motor and the cabinto and should keep a control steering precise. In a drive axle, the tire transmite the torthat of the motor and should manage the heat both of the load as of the forces of drive. In a trailer position, the tire should keep the stability under loads variables. Remains always the recommendations of inflation of the manufacturer of the tire for each position specific. For the Hanksugi all-position tires, consultation the table of loads and inflation in the page individual of the product or contact our team of support technical for orientation specific by position. Revisthe pressure weekly with a pressure gauge calibrated when tires are cold.
One of the advantages key of the all-position tires is the capacity of brokenrlas between positions for maximize the life total of the casing. A strategy common is comenzar the tire life in the steer axle, where experimentthe wear more controside and uniform. A size that the depth of the rolling tread decreases and the tire already is not optimal for the precision of the steer, trasladto a a drive position or trailer where can follow delivering value with lower depth of band. This approach of breakage can extend the total mileage of the tire in a 15-20% compared with leave tires in a single position until reach the depth minimum. Documenta each breakage in your system of management of fleet for rastrear wear patterns and optimize the intervals of breakage.
The all-position tires should medirse in the depth of the rolling tread in three points throughout the cara: both shoulders and the center. This measurement in three points revela if the tire is weardo in a manner uniform, which indicates a inflation and to alignment correctos. In steer positions, check for uneven wear in the shoulder that indicates problems with alignment. In drive positions, monitorethe wear in the center by sobreinflation or the wear in the edges through itsbinflation. In trailer positions, check for diagonal wear patternsl that indicate misalignment of the axle. Reemplazto any all-position tire when tread depth llegue a 4/32 of inch in steer positions or 2/32 of inch in drive positions and trailer.
Like the all-position tires can serve in steer axles, drive or trailer in different moments of its life, keep to alignment proper in each axle is critical. A steer axle desaligned causis a wear fast and uneven that reduce service life when it is moved to another position. Similarly, a trailer axle desaligned creates wear patterns diagonal that comprometen the tire performance without mattersr where instale after. Verificthe alignment in all the axles during each event of replacement of tires and at least annually as part of its program of maintenance preventive.
Questions common about all-position tires, strategy of inventory of fleet and the line Hanksugi all position for the Jamaican market.
A all-position tire for commercial truck is engineered to perform in any axle: steer, drive or trailer. These versatile tiresees balance steering stability necessary for the steer, the drive required in the drive axles and the low rolling resistance important for the trailers. The fleet managers the are used for simplify the inventory maintaining a single model of tire that instala where is needed.
The all-position tires worksn well as replacement of tires dedicateds by position in applications regional and mixed service. However, tires dedicateds of steer provide a steering superior stability for use sustained on-highway, and tires dedicateds of drive offer a deeper tread and a drive more aggressive for conditions invernales severe or of uphill of colinas. The all-position tires offer great value when the flexibility operating and the simplification of the inventory are most important that the need of maximum performance specific by position.
The all-position tires allow the fleets have less SKU in inventory, since a single model covers the steer, drive and trailer positions. This reduce the espacio in warehouse, low the costs of maintenance of inventory, simplifies the purchases and decreases the risk of inventory obsolete. The technical can instalar any tire in any axle without expect models specifics by position. For fleets medianas, consolidate to a strategy all position can reduce the costs of inventory of tires in a 20-30%.
