run-flat tires for trailers
Run-flat tires for trailers represent a revolutionary advancement in trailer safety and reliability. These specialized tires are engineered with reinforced sidewalls and advanced rubber compounds that allow continued operation even after a complete loss of air pressure. The technology enables trailers to maintain stability and control for up to 50 miles at reduced speeds, providing crucial time to reach a safe location for tire replacement. The structural design incorporates rigid support rings or insert systems that bear the trailer's weight when air pressure is lost, preventing immediate collapse and potential damage to the trailer or cargo. These tires feature innovative pressure monitoring systems that alert drivers to pressure loss, enabling proactive maintenance. The application of run-flat technology in trailer tires addresses common challenges in commercial transport, recreational vehicle travel, and specialized cargo handling, where unexpected tire failures can lead to costly delays and safety hazards.
