Lanka
THREE LAYER DESIGN
The excellent characteristics of the STARCO Tusker tyre lie in the three-layer design. These three layers work
together resulting in a tyre that is perfect for fork lift truck applications.
1
1. Tread layer
Natural rubber compound - Wear and tear resistant - Reduced chunking and chipping - Low heat build up
2
2. Resilient layer
Low hysteresis compound - Optimal elasticity and shock absorption for a more comfortable ride - Low heat
build up
3
3. Bead layer
Tough natural rubber compound - Integral steel bands and bead ring reinforcement
LARGE CONTACT AREA
Compared to other FLT tyres, STARCO Unicorn has a greater tread depth, reducing heat build-up and enhancing
the inherent heat dissipation of the tyre.
Similarly, a reduction of the number of open lugs and gaps, together with a square type shoulder
design, gives the STARCO Unicorn tyre a higher net-to-gross ground contact ratio.
Open lugs give increased flexibility under load and maneuvering and promote
better self-cleaning of the tyre in mud and snow conditions.
