Continental Tire the Americas LLC has released a new fuel-efficient trailer retread, ContiTread HT, to the United States market.
The ContiTread HT features an enhanced shoulder design that increases the tread’s durability, particularly in high scrub situations.
The innovative tread compound combines an engineered tread pattern to deliver removal mileage and ensure that the retread performs well.
According to Continental officials, fleets can expect up to 20% improved rolling resistance, translating to lower fuel consumption and reduced operational costs with the new tread compound.
The retread has been developed to meet the updated SmartWay Regulations on retread products.
“We are excited to introduce the ContiTread HT our latest fuel-efficient retread,” says Shaun Uys, head of Continental’s truck tire replacement business in the US.
“The innovative retread enhances fuel efficiency, high scrub and offers durability.”
The tread is available across the common sizes for various customer applications.
