Tyres for prime mover with low rolling resistance, designed for maximum efficiency of fuel, extended mileage and the lower cost per kilometre in highways interestatales.
The transport of long distance is the columna vertebral of the flete Maltese. A prime mover that covers the corridors road between distribution centres covers of 160,000 a 240,000 kilometres to the year, and the tyres in that truck are the higher cost variable after of the fuel. Elegir the tyres right for long-distance no is a cuestión of preference: is a decision financiera that affects the consumption of fuel, the intervalos of maintenance and the total cost of ownership in each kilometre of each route.
The feature definitoria of a verdadera tyre of long distance is the low rolling resistance. Each revolution of a tyre of truck requires energy for deformar the tread and the sidewall a size that the footprint of contact moves through its surface. The tyres with lower hysteresis -- the energy lost as heat during each cycle of deformation -- require less fuel for maintain the speed. On a combination prime mover Class 8, the tyres represent aproximadamente the 30% of the rolling resistance total. A reduction of the 10% in the rolling resistance of the tyres translates in aproximadamente a 3% of reduction in the consumption of fuel. A 75.700 litros by year and the pricing actuales of the diésel, that is a difference measurable in the presuputhis operativo of each truck of the fleet.
More beyond of the rolling resistance, a tyre of long distance must offer a wear predecible and uniform across its cara of rolling. The driving in highway a speeds sustained produces a pattern of wear different to regional service of start-up and parada. The better tyres of long distance use geometrys of tread and formulations of compounds that se wear evenmente of shoulder a shoulder, allowing to the managers of fleet predecir the intervalos of retiro with trust and programr the changes of tyres during the windows of maintenance planifieverys, instead of lidiar with failures in highway. El even wear also preserves the features of efficiency of fuel of the tyre a along all its service life, since a tyre with wear uneven generates more rolling resistance that a with a perfil of band consistent.
The capacity of retreading is the tercer pillar of the economy of the tyres for long distance. A casing of tyre premium represents aproximadamente the 60% of the total cost of the tyre, while tread rubber represents nearby of the 40%. When a tyre of long distance reaches the depth minimum of band in a truck well mantenido, the casing below aún must have one life structural significativa. Retread that casing with rubber new costs aproximadamente between the 30-40% of a tyre new, allowing effectively to the fleet obtain two or three cycles of life of a sola purchase of casing. That is why the quality of the casing matters both like the performance of the band in the choice of tyres for long distance: a tyre that delivery a strong mileage original but destruye its casing in the process is a bad investment compared with a that maintains the integrity of the casing for 3 retreads guaranteed.
The program low rolling resistance provides a independent third-party verification of that a tyre meets with thresholds specific of rolling resistance. For fleets of long distance, the technology of low rolling resistance no is only a credential environmental: is a indicator direct of the performance of efficiency of fuel. The tyres with low rolling resistance have been probadas in equipment of laboratory standardised and confirmed like inferiores to the thresholds of rolling resistance establecidos by the EPA for commercial truck tyres. All the tyres Hanksugi Malta for long-distance feature technology of low rolling resistance, confirming that meet with these standards of efficiency of fuel in positions of steering, drive and trailer.
Many larges generators of freight and operators logísticos now require use of tyres efficient of your carriers aliados, which includes use tyres with low rolling resistance. Operar with tyres with low rolling resistance on all positions of a combination prime mover can contribute to the puntaje general of efficiency energética of a fleet, which can be an advantage competitive when bidding for contracts of flete with generators of freight environmentalmente aware.
A solution complete of steer tyres, drive and trailer for operations of long distance by highway. Each tyre of this line is with low rolling resistance and built on a retreadable casing.
The price of purchase is the number less important to the evaluate the truck tyres for long distance. The metric that determina the cost actual of a tyre is the cost per kilometre (CPK): the expense total in a tyre split by the total of kilometres that delivery. El CPK captura the purchase price, the impact in fuel, the cost of maintenance and the value of retreading of the casing in a only number that allows a comparison direct between two options of tyres, regardless of your pricing of label.
Para calcular the CPK of a tyre for long distance, begin with the cost of acquisition of the tyre new. Agregue the impact estimado of the cost of fuel during the service life of the tyre, which requires learn aboutr the coeficiente of rolling resistance of the tyre in ratio with alternativas. Reste the credit by retreading: the value of the casing when leaves for retreading, that depends on the condition of the casing and of the cost ofl retreading front a a tyre new. Divide the total by the number of kilometres that the tyre delivered since new up to its retiro. El CPK resulting it gives a comparison equivalent that considera all the factors financieros, no only the purchase price.
Para the fleets of long distance, the cálculo of the CPK almost always favorece a the tyres premium on the alternativas economics. A tyre that costs a 15% more to the momento of the purchase but delivery a 25% more than mileage and produces a retreadable casing has a CPK more under that a tyre more barata that se wears faster and cuyo casing no is apto for retreading. The tyres Hanksugi for long-distance are designed for offer a CPK competitive through the combination of service life extended of the band, fuel savings by low rolling resistance and retreadable casings of high quality that supporting 3 cycles of retreading guaranteed of band.
The total cost of operar a tyre in a truck of long distance includes severel componentes more beyond of the purchase price. El impact of the fuel is the higher cost oculto: a tyre with higher rolling resistance costs more by kilometre in fuel that a alternativa of low resistance with low rolling resistance, and that cost se acumula in each kilometre of the life of the tyre. The costs of downtime by failures in highway related with tyres are another factor; a reventón or deflated in a highway interestatal can costar between USD 500 and USD 1.000 or more in service of emergency in highway, retrasos of freight e revenue perdidos. The tyres premium for long-distance with better construction and resistance to the heat reduces the probability of these costly eventos. Finalmente, the value of retreading of the casing agrega a credit for compensar the price of purchase original, reducing effectively the CPK for the tyres that maintain the integrity of the casing during all its service life of band.
The error more común that cometen the managers of fleet to the seleccionar tyres is operar tyres regional in routes of long distance, or viceversa. These two categorys of application require designs of tyres fundamentally differents, and emparejar badly the tyre with the application desperdicia money whether by exceso of fuel consumption or by wear prematuro.
The 80/20 rule is a useful guide: si more thanl 80% of kilometres of a truck are in highways interestatales a speeds sustained, the tyres for long-distance are the choice right. Si more thanl 20% of kilometres involucran driving urban, stops frequent, maniworksites in muelles or surfaces road mixed, the tyres regional will offern a better performance of total cost a pesar of its higher rolling resistance. Para operations that se find in the medio, considere the for axles of drive since its band deep offers certain versatility, and consulte with its dealer Hanksugi for a analysis specific of route.
Each position of axle in a combination prime mover of long distance has demands differents. Emparejar the right tyre with each position maximiza the performance and minimises the cost across the vehículo.
The axle of steering requires a answer of manejo precisa and a even wear across the cara of the band. The steer tyres for long-distance usan designs of múltiples ribs with grooves circumferenceles rectos that channel the water outside the footprint of contact and maintain the directional stability a speeds of highway. The HS36 has technology anti-wear uneven that prevents the wear escalonado of the shoulder común in steer tyres, extending the mileage of retiro and maintaining the precision of steering during all the service life of the tyre. The compounds of low rolling resistance maintain low the costs of fuel without sacrificar the grip in wet. The depths of band of 12mm a 16,5mm equilibran the mileage with the management of the heat a speeds sustained of highway.
The axle of drive transmite engine torque to the highway and is the point main of drive for acceleration and braking. Para long distance, a design of closed shoulder like the of the offers the lower rolling resistance of any configuration of tyre of drive. El design of bloque central hexagonal of the HS88 distribuye the estrés evenmente across the cara of the band, and its depth of band of 29/32" provides a service life extended that justifica its positionamiento premium. The ribs of closed shoulder create a band of contact continua that reduces the bamboleo and noiseido of the band, and the compound of dispersion uniform of carbon maintains features consistent of drive a size that the tyre se desgasta. Para fleets that cosee more of 160,000 kilometres annually by truck, the HS88 is the recommendation main for all the positions of axle of drive.
The trailer tyres ruedan libremente without power of the motor, which does that the rolling resistance is the factor of performance dominante. Each libra adicional of rolling resistance in a tyre of trailer is puro waste of fuel. The and the are designed específicamente for service of trailer of long distance with compounds of low hysteresis and patterns of band simplificados that minimise the loss of energy. The HS86T agrega a package of four belts of steel for higher resistance a punctures in routes where the desechos in the road are a concern, offering seguro against the costsas llamadas of service in highway that resultan of failures in trailer tyres. Both models feature technology of low rolling resistance and have retreadable casings. Para fleets operating drop-and-hook where the trailers permanecen inactivos between loads, the stability of the compound of the familia HS86 during periods of rest extended help a prevent the flattening.

The difference between obtain 290.000 kilometres of a juego of tyres for long-distance and obtain 400.000 kilometres no is the tyre, is the program of maintenance. The tyres for long-distance are designed for deliveryr the maximum mileage, but only when the truck that the supports is rightmente mantenido and the tyres same reciben service constante.
The inflation suitable is the most important factor in the service life of the tyres for long distance. Verifique all the pressures of the tyres weekly with a calibrated gauge when the tyres are cold, no when are hot after horas of operation in highway, since this can inflar the lecturas in 10-15 PSI and enmascarar hazardous underinflateds. A tyre that is 20% subinflada pierde aproximadamente the 25% of its service life of band due to the wear excesivo of the shoulder and generates significativamente more heat, which degrada the casing and reduces the powerl of retreading. The drive tyres for long-distance in dual configuration typically operate a 100-110 PSI for freight standard, but always consulte the tables of load/inflation for your specific tyre model and weights actual of the axle. Invertir in systems of monitoring of pressure of tyres (TPMS) that alertan to the drivers on caídas of pressure in time actual se pays only to the prevent the damage in casevery that occurs when a tyre operate subinflada by periods extended.
En a truck of long distance that covers 193,000 kilometres by year, even a small error of alignment in the axle of steering destruye the tyres a a ritmo alarmante. A badly alignment of convergence of only 1,5 millimetres arrastra each tyre of steering lateralmente aproximadamente 2,4 metros by each kilometre route. A along 193,000 kilometres, that are almost 320 kilometres of arrastre lateral in each tyre of steering, suficiente for desgastar prematuramente the shoulder of the band and create the pattern of wear plumeado that is the signo revelador of badly alignment. Check alignment of the axle of steering each 80.000 kilometres and always that a driver reporte a jalón or deviation. En the axles of drive and trailer, verifique the tracking of the axle (ángulo of empuje) for ensuresr that the dual run straight and don't rub against each other.
The dual of the axle of drive must be matched within 3,2mm of depth of band. When a dual is of lower diameter that its par, gira faster and arrastra against the pavement, creating a condition of arrastre internal that wastes fuel and wears both tyres of manera uneven. Mida the depth of band on all drive positions each 40.000 kilometres and rote interior a exterior according to is necessary to even out wear. Al replace a sola tyre in a dual pair, always empareje the replacement with the circumference of the tyre remaining. No empareje a tyre new with a even medio gastada.
Retire the tyres of long distance for retreading before that the tread se wear more beyond of indicators of wear. Operar a tyre more beyond of the depth minimum of band no saves money: arriesga damage the casing and elimina the option of retreading that represents the better retorno on the investment original of the tyre. Al remove tyres for retreading, inspeccione damage that could comprometer the integrity of the casco: cuts or enganches in the sidewall, damage in the área of the talón, separations of belt visibles like protuberancias or abultamientos, and damage by heat of eventos of underinflated. Almacene the casings removed in a área clean and dry far of the luz solar and equipment generators of ozono. Envíe the casings a a retreadedr qualified within 30 days posteriores to the retiro.

Questions common on tyres for truck of long distance, choice of tyres for prime movers and maintenance of tyres for prime movers.
A good tyre for truck of long distance combina low rolling resistance for efficiency of fuel, tread deep for extended mileage, features of even wear for intervalos of retiro predecibles, and a retreadable casing that extends the investment total in tyres through 3 cycles of retreading guaranteed. The technology of low rolling resistance confirms that a tyre meets with standards of the EPA for low rolling resistance, which can save to the fleets between 2-4% in costs of fuel. The better tyres of long distance also feature compounds resistant to heat that maintain the structural integrity a speeds sustained of highway during hundreds of miles of kilometres.
The tyres premium of drive for long-distance in trucks well mantenidos typically deliver between 240,000 and 400.000 kilometres before reaching the depth minimum of band, depending on the weight of the load, the terrain and the prácticas of maintenance. The steer tyres in service of long distance comúnmente reach between 240,000 and 320.000 kilometres. The trailer tyres, that experimentan less arrastre that the of drive, can reaching between 320.000 and 480.000 kilometres. These figures asumen a management suitable of inflation, alignment and distribution of load. El retreading of a casing of quality can agregar others 160,000 a 240,000 kilometres by cycle of retreading.
The tyres of long distance are optimisesdas for speeds sustained of highway with stops minimums, prioritisedo the low rolling resistance, the efficiency of fuel and the even wear of the band. The tyres regional are designed for driving frequent of start-up and parada with more giros, maniworksites in muelles and surfaces road varied, prioritisedo the drive and the resistance to the arrastre. The drive tyres for long-distance typically usan designs of closed shoulder, while the drive tyres regional usan patterns of open shoulder for better grip across climate. Use tyres of long distance in regional service can causar wear uneven prematuro, while use tyres regional in routes of long distance wastes fuel.
Yes. The tyres with low rolling resistance are probadas and certified of manera independent for meet with thresholds of low rolling resistance. Para a fleet of long distance, the tyres represent aproximadamente the 30% of the rolling resistance total, which affects directamente the consumption of fuel. The tyres with low rolling resistance can reduces the costs of fuel between 2-4% in comparison with alternativas no verifieverys. On a truck that consumes 75.700 litros by year, a savings of the 3% in fuel to the pricing actuales of the diésel produces savings annually significativos by truck. Para fleets of severel trucks, the impact acumulativo is sustancial. All the tyres Hanksugi Malta for long-distance feature technology of low rolling resistance.
Yes, the casings of the tyres premium for truck of long distance are designed específicamente for retreading. The tyres Hanksugi for long-distance use construction of belts of steel multicapa and compounds resistant to heat that preservan the integrity of the casing during all the service life original of the band. A casing in good conditions typically can support two retreads, tripling effectively the value of the purchase original of the tyre. Remove the tyres before that the band se wear more beyond of indicators of wear, maintain the inflation suitable during all the life of the tyre, and trabaje with a facility of retreading qualified that utilice tests no destructivas for verify the integrity of the casing.
The steer tyres for long-distance typically operate between 105-120 PSI depending on the weight of the axle and the size of the tyre. The drive tyres in dual configuration comúnmente funcionan a 100-110 PSI for freight standard. The trailer tyres usualmente operate a 100-110 PSI. The pressure of inflation right depends on the weight actual of the axle, no of the capacity maximum of load. El sobreinflado concentrates the wear central, while the under-inflation causa wear in the shoulder, accumulation of heat and damage to the casing. Always consulte the tables of load/inflation for your specific tyre model and verifique the pressure weekly with a calibrated gauge when the tyres are cold.
