ISI Certification (BIS) for
Pneumatic Tyres for Commercial Vehicles-Diagonal and Radial Ply IS 15636 in India

BIS CERTIFICATION OF AUTOMOTIVE VEHICLES- PNEUMATIC TYRES FOR COMMERCIAL VEHICLES-DIAGONAL AND RADIAL PLY IS 15636

Radial tyres were developed in 1946. There was a need for more flexible tyres, which were able to absorb shocks generated by road surfaces. These tyres are also stronger, which means machines can be operated at higher capacities. In radial tyres, steel cord plies are placed on the heel of the tyre, and a belt is placed across the casing. Because cord plies are placed directly on top of each other, the side walls of radial tyres remain very flexible. Diagonal tyres have been used instead of solid rubber tyres since 1898. They were a standard feature in the car industry before radial tyres were introduced. Diagonal tyres consist of casing layers made from nylon cord. They are placed diagonally across each other in the tread and the side walls, at an angle of 55 degrees. Diagonal tyres are used, for example, to perform activities in ports, often on reach stackers.
