KARGOMAX: the Trailer Specialist

Offers exceptional protection against climatic influences
Maintains constant air pressure over long periods

Bonn, 1 June 2010. When fitted on caravans and trailers, standard tyres are negatively impacted by extended stand-still periods, as well as by high ozone exposure due to intensive solar radiation. However, since the distance travelled is generally low, the tread profile is subjected to significantly less wear than on motor vehicles.

As a fatal consequence, the tyres often remain in use for much too long. “Ten to 15 years are not unusual,” reports Lennart Lindstrom, Technical Director GITI Tire Europe. “The aging process of a static loaded tyre frequently causes the rubber to deteriorate, which can lead to dangerous blowouts,” adds Lindstrom.

To prevent that from happening, the GT RADIAL KARGOMAX has been specially designed for use on caravans and trailers. It boasts an exclusive range of unique features:

Its innovative carcass structure, the shoulder design and the special ozone-resistant rubber compound offer the best possible protection against climatic influences during extended stand-still periods.

The inner liner, a butyl-based rubber sealant layer inside the tyre on Kargomax, has been enhanced, to ensure that very little air escapes through the sidewalls. However, this doesn’t eliminate the need to check the tyre pressure regularly for traffic safety purposes.

The specially aligned tread depth, the profile design and the composition of the tread compound are all tailored to match real operating conditions. The GT RADIAL KARGOMAX is classified as a so-called FRT, or Free Rolling Tyre. With an N speed rating that allows for a maximum velocity of 140 km/h, it is not designed for automobiles. Instead, the market will benefit from the introduction of a true trailer specialist.

The KARGOMAX is available in two versions – the ST-4000 for standard trailers and light caravans (highest load bearing capacity: 710 kilograms), as well as the ST-6000 for heavier tandem-axle vehicles and larger caravans (highest load bearing capacity: 900 kilograms).

EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes?

The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.

Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.

The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.

With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.

Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.

Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
