AZENIS FK520 – ARAMID LAYER REINFORCEMENT

ARAMID LAYER REINFORCEMENT

PRODUCT FEATURE:

  • A new reinforced layer consisting of Aramid material

FUNCTION:

  • Components adopted from our successful AZENIS race tyres for ultra-precise handling. Technology transfer from racetrack to road

BENEFIT:

  • Stiff and lightweight Aramid reinforcing material improves cornering and high-speed stability
AZENIS FK520 – DIAMOND-CUT EDGES AND SILENCING DIMPLES

DIAMOND-CUT EDGES AND SILENCING DIMPLES

PRODUCT FEATURE:

  • Diamond-cut edges with silencing dimple adapted in all lateral shoulder grooves

FUNCTION:

  • Angled edges to improve ground contact; silencing dimples create micro-turbulences to minimise pattern noise

BENEFIT:

  • Superb cornering abilities and exceptionally good dry braking. Further reduced noise level

LIGHTWEIGHT CONSTRUCTION

PRODUCT FEATURE:

  • New lightweight construction

FUNCTION:

  • Optimised shape and design provides up to 10% weight reduction compared to predecessor

BENEFIT:

  • Lightweight tyre to conserve resources, reduce undamped mass and improve rolling resistance

TECHNOLOGY HIGHLIGHTS

Technology description NANO BLACK

NANO BLACK – SIDEWALL DESIGN

The innovative process for creating highly detailed deep black logos and design elements on the sidewalls enhances the tyre's striking looks as well as improving the aerodynamics.


Technology description Advanced 4D-Nano Design

ADVANCED 4D-NANO DESIGN

Low rolling resistance, outstanding safety and durability are the three main requirements that car tyres need to fulfil, both today and in the future. To drive progress in this area, the scientists and engineers at Sumitomo Rubber Industries Ltd. conducted pioneering research into the molecular structure of tyres, using particle accelerators and advanced simulation computers. They succeeded in simulating and controlling the molecular structure of rubber compounds used for tyres at nano level; for example, they analysed where and how superfluous heat was generated in the tyre and how this development could be minimised. Heat means loss of energy for the tyre, and thus rolling resistance – which is ultimately responsible for fuel consumption. Advanced 4D-Nano Design technology is the result of these advanced findings in molecular structures. It enables savings in fuel consumption of up to five per cent to be achieved compared to conventional tyre models, and significantly improves the tyre’s performance in wet conditions.
