THE BANDAG PRECURE RETREADING PROCESS
The excellence of Bandag retreads is a result of Bandag’s highly sophisticated and standardised retreading process. State-of-the-art technology builds efficiency and accuracy into every step of the precure retreading process.
Our constant search for technical improvement guarantees that vehicles receive retreaded tyres, which combine quality, safety and reliability. The Bandag process restores the performance levels of the retreaded tyre to match those of a new tyre. Call us today, if you need our quality services in the surrounding locations like Cardiff, Newport, Swansea.
STEPS OF THE BANDAG PRECURE RETREADING PROCESS:
- Initial safety inspection of casing
- Non-destructive inspection checks for safety issues
- Buffing to restore tyre dimensions and a perfect balance
- Skiving and filling repairs
- Building and adding a new tread
- Curing
- Final inspection checks for safety and perfect appearance
We are experts in supplying and fitting car and commercial vehicle tyres.
PRECURE OR COLD PROCESS (BANDAG RETREADING PROCESS)
In the precure process, precured rubber, usually of high density and available in various tread designs, is lined with cushion gum before applying to a buffed casing. Curing is done in a pressure chamber at low temperature (100 °C) and pressure. This lower pressure and temperature brings less stress on casing. In this process, tread is industrially pre-vulcanised with continuous quality control. This process provides flexibility in handling different tyre sizes and brands. Original casing also remains visible.
PART OF NATURE
Do you care about the environment? Do you want to reduce your tyre expenditure? Bandag helps you to reach both goals at the same time. To retread a 315/80R22.5 with a standard traction pattern, a Bandag retread only takes 26 litres of oil to produce, compared to 83 litres for a new tyre.
Bandag retreads cost a fraction of new tyres and have less impact on the environment.
Out on the road, Bandag retreads match the characteristics of premium new tyres in performance, safety and reliability.
