What are the differences between vertical and horizontal patterns in automobile tires, especially heavy truck tires?
Disadvantages: poor drainage, tire cooling effect is not good. In addition, the tread pattern increases the area of the contact area of the ground and increases the noise. The vehicle handling flexibility is clearly not comparable to that of a longitudinal tread tire, and is not suitable for high speed driving.Application: dump trucks, industrial vehicles, buses, load wheels, and drive wheels running on poor roads.
Bar pattern:Advantages: the tire and ground contact area is large, both the braking force and driving force are better performance, greatly make up for the lack of vertical tread tires, traction performance and wear resistance better.
Longitudinal pattern:Advantages: this kind of pattern has good stability, small resistance to rotation and difficult lateral sliding. The rolling resistance is small, so it has little friction with the ground, and has better driving guidance, so it is suitable for high speed driving. Moreover, the longitudinal tire has excellent drainage performance, and it is not easy to skid in the wet slippery road and has less noise in the running.Disadvantages: the longitudinal pattern of tire brake performance is relatively weak, easy to clamp stone, and driving force is not as good as the strip pattern of the tire, in the load prone to cracking.Use: usually on relatively clean, good, hard road, such as highways or urban roads. Not suitable for roads such as sand or roads. Used for guiding wheels.
