TECHNOLOGY

Cotton casing - cotton threads have the thinnest structure in the tyre casing technology, with benefits related to lightweight and flexibility. This characteristic allows the development of cas ings with a higher number of threads per inch, up to 320 TPI, for the top-quality cotton casings. This property allows the tyre to conform closer to the road’s surface, providing a smoother ride, easier rolling, and better grip. In order to boost the overall strength of the casing, Vittoria uses Corespun yarn, which is a particular type of yarn made by cotton and aramid fibres combined.

About GRAPHENE technology in tires - Graphene is the innovative material used by Vittoria in compounds to improve performance of tires. Graphene is the world’s thinnest material but at the same time one of the strongest ever used for consumer applications. Made of a single hexagonal-shape layer of carbon atoms, Graphene interacts with rubber by filling the space in between the rubber molecules. It acts like a magnet, making rubber molecules closer to one another and improving the overall rubber structure. Graphene’s main properties are related to: Thinness / Strength / Flexibility / Lightness.

Graphene + Silica - Silica, added to Graphene, boosts the tyre performance and consistently provides longer mileage and grip, further empowering the riding experience. Furthermore, this new compound combination reduces tyre weight and increases the performance gains. Vittoria’s lab tests have proven the new combination of Graphene and Silica to provide following performance gains, compared to a normal compound:plus 9% in speed/rolling performance, plus 32% in grip, plus 21% in puncture resistance,longer mileage and tyre’s wear life
