DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RADIAL AND BIAS TYRES • How To Check If I Have Bias Ply Or Radial Tyres? • Your trailer or RV probably has either of these models. The best way to check whether it is outfitted with bias ply or radial tyres is by looking on the sidewall. Just below the tyre size, you will be able to find the word ‘radial’ or ‘bias’. If it says ‘radial’ you should know that you have the more expensive and more robust tyre specification. • Let’s take a look at both of the constructions in detail.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RADIAL AND BIAS TYRES • Bias Ply Tyre Construction • Bias ply tyres are made with reinforcing cord which is laid out diagonlly (typically 30 or 40 degrees) from the direction of travel from each bead to bead. • Each additional ply has reinforcing cords that are laid at an opposing angle to the ply beneath it. • Most bias ply tyres are 4, which means they have 4 layers of reinforcing fabric cords • 6 ply, 8 ply and 10 ply options are available for heavier vehicles only. • The sidewall and the tread are both supported by the same reinforcing piles, giving the tyre some unique characteristics.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RADIAL AND BIAS TYRES • Radial Tyre Construction • In radial tyres, the reinforcing cords are laid at a 90 degree angle from the direction of travel from bead to bead. • Each additional ply is laid in the same direction as the one located underneath it, making all the reinforcing cords to run in parallel to each other. • The reinforcing belts are added between the radial plies and the tread (here, belts are made from woven strands of steel, nylon, Kevlar and other materials). • More rubber is applied over the belts to create the tread. • The sidewall and tread are two independent parts of the tyre.
