Cold retread
Precure process, also known as “cold cure”. A tread strip, where the pattern is already pressed and precured, is applied to the casing. It is bonded to the casing by means of a thin layer of specially compounded uncured rubber (known as cushion or bonding gum) which is vulcanized by the application of heat, pressure and time.
When to use it
Suitable under the following circumstances
- When the tyre has to operate for long leads and high speed
- When the surface is smooth
- When the tyre has smooth wearing
Advantages
- The process is fast and economical, as more than one tyre can be processed at the same time
- The steam pressure is less, so the tyre is not under huge stress as compared to the hot process
- As the tyre is imposed with a new layer of rubber, if tread gets removed it can be corrected by adding a small patch at the same position
- Life of the tyre will depend on workmanship and the weight of the rubber belt used
Hot retread is suitable for mining or road construction applications, very short leads, exposed ply and side tread damaged while running.
