In tire design, safety is the number one priority while meeting today’s challenging natural resource consumption targets. To support these efforts, Tokusen developed higher strength, lower profile cords with a focus on high rubber penetration, reduced rubber consumption, fatigue resistance, and reduced rolling resistance.
The focus in bead wire is somewhat the same as in tire cord. Tokusen is developing alternate bead manufacturing methods and materials to maintain safety and lower overall tire weight.
