When Rubber Grow. Hot.

When an automobile is running at
high speed the rubber tires are rap.
idly warmed and the heat sometimes
becomes very great, with resultant
injury to the rubber. The cause Of
this accumulation Of heat In the tire
Is ascribed to the kneading of the rub
Der, which generates heat faster than
It can be radiated away. For this
reason manufacturers have found 1t
to be an advantage to have metal
parts in the tread, such as the ends
Of rivets, in contact with the tire.
because the metal, being good radi.
ator, helps to carry of the heat to
the outer air.
