Dunlop Tyre Talk: Touch Technology

By admin ⋅ July 26, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

To be in control is the essence of driving enjoyment. Getting all the relevant information right on time means drivers can act accordingly. The correct and timely road feedback offered by Dunlop’s ultra high performance tyre SP Sport Maxx TT with Touch Technology, ensures an excellent two-way communication, meaning driving enthusiasts can concentrate on what really matters: driving enjoyment.  Dunlop’s Touch Technology combines a number of sophisticated tyre technologies such as:

The stiffer pattern design is based on Dunlop Multi Radius Tread Technology (MRT). The tread pattern is conventionally developed on the basis of three different radii. Dunlop MRT Design employs ten different radii and is therefore more precise. The pressure across the tyre is managed more effectively. The effect is a significantly better control over the evolution of the footprint in driving conditions.

The shape of the tyre changes more smoothly when it moves from a straight to a curve, leading to more precise and progressive reactions.[/column]

Flatter Tread Profile

The new generation of Dunlop tyres feature a flatter tread profile with a four to eight percent bigger contact patch, depending on size and type.

A flatter profile with bigger contact patch delivers better impulse, more stability and enhanced road feedback, allowing tyres to respond quicker and more precisely.

Asymmetric Tread Design and Variable Land to Sea Ratio

The asymmetric tread design with a variable land to sea ratio provides improved aquaplaning resistance. The continuous centre rib increases stability and precision.

The asymmetric groove arrangement enhances grip on wet and dry surfaces. The massive outer shoulder block delivers outstanding cornering control. Drivers will experience a more relaxed motoring thanks to the tyre’s improved performance in both straight line.

A specific bead seat system strengthening a tight link between tyre and rim improves driving control and provides a more precise driving experience. The tight link ensures enhanced control and another extra in sensitive road feedback.[/column]
