Arisun tire Gains SmartWay Verification
June 15
America (Jan 13, 2015 )——Two Arisun tires, which is the tire brand of China’s Zhongce Rubber Group Co., Ltd. (ZC Rubber), have received Smartway verification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency( EPA).
The two radial tires to obtain SmartWay verification are Arisun AT570 long haul tire and Arisun AD778 regional driver tire. Those premium tires were verified for meeting efficiency standards in fuel consumption and releasing reduced gas emissions into the atmosphere.
EPA has determined that certain low rolling resistance tire models when used on all five axles of line-haul class-8 tractor trailer can reduce NOx emissions and improve fuel consumption by over 3 percent.
Environmental protection is also the focal point for ZC Rubber to carry out the social responsibility. “We always pursue high-quality and valuable tires for the worldwide customers. Low rolling resistance tires not only help to protect the environment but also help customers lower their fuel costs.” The company says.
With the new computer designed tread structure, Arisun AT570 has seven ribs with six wide, straight grooves for precise handling and outstanding traction and provides even wear with less pressure on the road. The tire is recommended for use on trailer of truck. The AT570 and AT566 are available on the size 445/50R22.5.
Arisun AD778 is a premium drive tire applicable for regional paved road. Special tread compound and CAD tire carcass help to guarantee long tire life and better retread ability. The tread depth of the four sizes (11R22.5, 295/75R22.5, 11R24.5 and 285/75R24.5) reaches 28’’/32ND, which is deeper than the most other tires. Extra deep grooves with central longitude ribs provide perfect traction with robust open shoulder blocks and extend the tire mileage.
Besides the three tires, there are other SmartWay-verified tires of ZC Rubber, including Arisun AS600, AD737, AT500, AD778, AT570, AS673 .As the largest tire manufacturer in mainland China, ZC Rubber says that more premium and green tires with low rolling resistance and lower fuel will be produced relying on new techniques, helping to improve vehicle fuel efficiency and minimize wasted energy, meeting the customers’ different demands.
