Continental has created Generation 3 tyre treads for cold retreading, with its two new treads, the Conti CityPlus HA3 and Conti Urban HA3, specifically designed for use in passenger transport.
For cold retreading of tyres on city buses, Continental offers the Conti Urban HA3 tread with M+S (Mud and Snow) labeling. The Conti Urban HA3 tread compound, together with its tread design of deep sipes, is specially designed for urban use and provides optimal lane-keeping capabilities, even in very wet conditions, an extremely low rolling noise as well as a high level of driving comfort.
With its proven reliability in construction-site traffic, the HDC1 tread is now available in the HDC1 variant. The new tread has a lower tread depth than its sister model, offering a more cost-effective alternative for efficient use in construction-site traffic when used as a tyre with lower performance expectations based on its application.
In the goods transport segment, the successful tread HTL1 Eco Plus is now also available for trailer tyres in size 445/45 R 19.5. This is Continental’s response to the growing demand for tyres for high-volume transport – and the company is now offering its powerful ContiTread treads for cold retreading in this segment.
ContiTread is part of the modular ContiLifeCycle concept, where Continental supplies its customers with cost-effective service solutions throughout the entire tyre life, from new tyres through regrooving, casing management, to retreading.
