CONT

Ce genre de dessin est devenu possible à cause du développement des microlamelles et des microrainures. Celles-ci sont quasiment invisibles à l'œil nu, mais elles effectuent un travail convaincant dans l'évacuation de l'eau et de la gadoue, ce qui améliore considérablement l'adhérence du pneu sur chaussée détrempée, enneigée ou verglacée.

Key term(s)
  • micro-rainure
