rom starting as a small rubber factory in ClermontFerrand, France in 1889,
Michelin is now a full-service
tire manufacturer supplying
the needs of military, airline, regional and general
aviation segments. With safety as
their number one priority, Michelin
continues to improve tires with
advancements in longer-wearing
tread technology.
"Michelin has earned wide recognition
for aircraft excellence through pioneering
product developments and outstanding
manufacturing quality," said Jim Boyle,
Michelin aircraft tire safety expert.
Safety is the number one priority in aviation due to the inherent severity of aircraft
tire operations and the concern of large
numbers of passengers involved in the critical business of aviation. Aircraft tires are
exposed to extreme speeds, loads, temperatures and pressures during all phases of
use. Unlike passenger car tires that need
grooves to evacuate water, aircraft tires
can be worn down to the bottom of the
grooves with minimal loss of performance.
"When designing aircraft tires, Michelin
focuses on operational safety and increased
tire performance," Boyle mentioned. "This
is achieved most often by making minor
changes to tread compounds and tire construction. These are rarely visible to the
human eye, but the impact can be great."
