Light summer car tires Hankook Ventus ST RH06 is mainly focused on heavy-duty vehicles that have excellent all-terrain characteristics.
Features of summer tires
The directional design of the V-shaped tread pattern of the Hankook Ventus ST RH06 car tires received a rather aggressive exterior. The treadmill of automotive rubber has a huge number of special drainage grooves in a zigzag shape, starting from the medial sector of the tread and ending on its sidewalls. Such a technical and constructive solution helped to improve the quality of grip of the wheels of the car with the road even when driving on wet asphalt surfaces, and also minimized the possibility of hydroplaning and loss of control over the behavior of the vehicle.
The all-season passenger tire Hankook RH06 Ventus ST of the world-famous South Korean manufacturer is designed for powerful off-road vehicles. The tire has high-speed indexes "V" - up to 150 mi / h and "W" - up to 170mi / h.
Among other things, the surface of the tread blocks of the Hankook k tire was subjected to dense siping, which improved the quality of wet grip and increased overall driving safety in difficult road and weather conditions, even at high speed.
The choice in favor of the V-shaped profile of the tread pattern helped to maximize the area of the contact patch between the wheels of the car and the road, while fully preserving all the basic technical and operational qualities of tires. Such a tread structure makes it possible to reduce the rolling resistance of the machine's wheels, as well as to improve its energy efficiency and environmental friendliness by reducing the level of fuel consumption and harmful emissions into the atmosphere.
The high abrasion resistance of the tire structure and its low noise are the results of the use of an ultra-modern rubber compound based on silica and polymer compounds.
Tread pattern features
Large tread blocks with large contact areas with the road, ensure vehicle stability and confident passage turns. Step, non-linear fort, and segmentation of block elements IE tread promote even wear. The multidirectional drainage system effectively removes water from the tire contact patch with the road and reduces the risk of aquaplaning effects.
Low noise level and comfort
Dual depth pitch theory(DDPT) - Variable change theory pitch and tread depth with the greatest groove depth in the center of the treadmill.
The application of the theory of GDT allows increased tire life with increased wear of the central zone of the treadmill, which is inevitable when operating the tire at high speeds and also to minimize acoustic discomfort.
Durability and wear resistance
Optimization of the tire contact patch with the road, as well as the unique formula of the rubber compound and specially developed tread pattern enable effective tire operation throughout service life.
The directional V-shaped tread design of the tire has a pronounced aggressive appearance. The tread of the tire contains a plurality of curved drainage channels starting in the central area of the tread and ending at the sidewalls. This solution made it possible to achieve high efficiency in removing water from the tire contact patch, which significantly improved grip on wet surfaces even at high speeds. In addition, the design of the Hankook RH06 Ventus ST contains a large number of sipes to improve traction and grip on wet surfaces without compromising the rigidity of the tread elements.
The V-shaped tread pattern maximized the tire-to-surface contact patch while maintaining other basic tire performance for excellent dry grip and improved braking performance. It is also worth noting that this type of tread pattern is characterized by low rolling resistance, on which fuel efficiency indicators depend.
The addition of innovative components, including silica, to the rubber compound, endowed this tire with excellent grip performance, low noise level, and high wear resistance.
