Side tires
Here a word should be said about
the new cord tires just becoming pop
ular among discriminating buyers.
The greatest enemy of the pneumatic
tire is internal friction which gener-
ates heat and causes the rubber to
ydeteriorate.
1t has been the constant aim of
tire manufacturers, even since the
pneumatic tire was developed, to
eliminate as much OF this friction as
possible.
The cord tire is the result.
1t has long been realized Nsby' tire
engineers that the continual taxing
of the tire walls asi distractions in
the road are met causes the threads
OF : the, fabric to rub together. Where
they cross, creating destructive
heat. The obvious .way to- :getr dot;
this friction is to use a construction
in which the cords do not touch.
This is just what the engineers do in
making cord tires. Layers of cords
are used, all-the cords of each layer
in the same direction. each
cord completely sheathed By, and I'm
bedded in rubber The cords do not
touch each other at any point. In
building up the body of the. tire, the
layers Of cord are so arranged that
the cords run diagonally aroiind the
tire, the alternate layers in opposing
directions
Tires made in this way far outlast
ordinary tires and are more resilient,
This latter advantage makes them
the tire to select when speed power,
economy and comfort are uppermost.
Diversified tires were primarily de-
signed for exceptionally hard service
but have come into general use be-
cause of extra strength, easier riding
cushion and longer mileage In fact,
experienced car owners specify the
oversize tires. in many instances for
original equipment Of new cars. The
resiliency of larger tires reduces the
traction slippage on rear wheels,
adds to comfort and lessons vibration
to the mechanism of the car.
