The tire for demanding pilots.
The new Michelin Air tire, specially designed for general aviation, demonstrates the French manufacturer's expertise in this field.
Key benefits of the Michelin AIR tire:
Extensive tread depth
The thick rubber in the tread contributes to a long tire life. It helps reduce maintenance costs by reducing the need for tire changes.
Customized rubber compounds
The sidewall is optimized for ozone and ultraviolet protection, which helps reduce ozone cracking in key areas of the tire. It provides maximum resistance to external wear and cracking for a long tire life.
Unique bead construction
Ensures a firm (tight) fit to reduce movement between the tire and the wheel. Improves lateral stability for a long tire life, even during hard landings.
Profile shoulder design
Helps absorb side impact during landings. Designed to extend tire life, even in difficult conditions.
Optimized casing design
Michelin's exclusive production processes help balance stresses within the tire structure. The strong yet lightweight nylon cords are designed to exceed stringent industry standards for overpressure resistance. The result is an efficient, lightweight product with excellent balancing properties for smooth rolling, even wear, and resistance to overheating, ensuring long tire life.
