MICHELIN Casing

Michelin Technology, developed by Michelin Research Centers in Europe, North America and Asia, provides the best casing endurance and the highest level of safety to our customers.

1. Bead protection plies

Improved resistance to damage in bead area due to high temperatures coming from brakes or due to aggression occurring during fitment and removal or because of poor wheel conditions.

Benefits:

Less premature removal due to bead damages.

2. Casing ply with humidity proof cable

Better steel cable bonding with rubber, providing less casing oxidation, better casing endurance and durability.

Benefits:

Reduced air humidity effect and cable oxidation.
Reduced risk of cable friction.
Increased casing endurance.

3. Airtight inner liner

Stops air from inside the inflated tyre from reaching the casing ply cables.

Benefits:

Casing oxidation protection.
Pressure maintenance.
Increased casing endurance.

4. Working plies with high tensile cable

Allows an optimized tyre architecture providing higher crown ply resistance against shock and higher endurance in extreme dynamic or severe scrubbing.

Benefits:

Higher crown resistance and greater protection against road hazards.

5. Protection ply designed with new elastic cable

Increase working ply protection against tread aggression leading to significant crown oxidation reduction.

Benefits:

Less damage from road aggression and crown oxidation.
Increased tyre and casing life potential.
