Precured Tread Rubber For Tyre Retreading

While manufacturing a new tyre, on an average of 70-80% of the manufacturing cost is incurred in the tyre body and the remaining in tread i.e. is the portion of tyre which meets the road surface. Applying a new tread over the worn tyre rebuilt the tyre and gives a fresh life to it within just half of the price of a new tyre. This process is known as retreading.

Why is it important?

Every tyre retreading involves less wastage and least usage of raw materials. Usage of preured tread rubber features good wet traction, excellent tread wear, low heat build up, good weathering and ageing resistance, maximum mileage, good resistance to and chucking and chipping. this product is widely used across the automobile industry.

Types of Retreading:

Conventional Process
In this process an un-vulcanize rubber strip is applied on the buffed casing of tyre. This strip takes the pattern of the mould during the vulcanization process.

Precure Process
In this process a tread strip, where the pattern is already pressed and pre cure is applied to the casing. It is bonded to the casing by a thin layer of specially compounded uncured rubber , also known as cushion or bonding gum which is vulcanized by the application of heat, pressure and time.

Key Benefits:

  • Advanced casing technology
  • Covers all retreading processes
  • Lower operating costs because of extended tyre life cycles
  • Solutions for all applications: cradle-to-grave tyre management services
  • Top-quality construction techniques and equivalent mileage to comparable new tyres
  • Positive environmental impact because of less energy consumption, less raw materials used,less emissions


Distributorship opportunity in Tread Rubber
"Retreading saves more than $3 billion of the trucking industry annually. Premium casings provide multiple life cycles, saving fleet managers up to half of the price of new truck tire each time they retread a casing." said Todd Labbe, general manager of commercial retreads at Goodyear.

In 2013, the no. of retreads sold were 14.9 millions and the growth is expected to rise in upcoming years.

To conclude, this is a peak time to invest in tread market. Those who are finding a result-oriented distribution opportunity, this is a smart one to hold on.
