Indoor 2 contains a 0.2-mile, 30-foot-wide squiggly handling circuit. The Indoor 1 building is a 525-foot-by-52-foot pole barn of packed snow that includes a lane of Zamboni-maintained ice. We headed up to the refrigerated covered complex in late summer, as we wanted this story to appear in time for you to take advantage of its findings for the winter soon to be upon us. In early spring, Test World stockpiles snow, filling its two buildings with about two feet of packed, natural white stuff, enough to last the entire indoor-testing season. During winter months it operates like any other automotive proving grounds, but with frozen canals and snow-packed fields standing in for the concrete and asphalt you find at more-temperate venues. The Test World Mellatracks proving grounds is a facility that offers year-round testing on natural snow, as opposed to the man-made stuff. Los neumáticos de la categoría Tracción Máxima Fuera de Carretera poseen el símbolo M+S (lodo y nieve) y son capaces de remover nieve, pero su gran tamaño y la ausencia de pequeñas ranuras (conocidas como sipes) sobre la superficie de los bloques o tacos, pueden presentar un reto en la tracción para invierno sobre nieve compactada o superficies con hielo.The facility we used for this tire test, the aptly named Test World Mellatracks, sits roughly 186 miles north of the Arctic Circle in Lapland, outside the tiny town of Ivalo. Dos correas anchas de acero dan soporte a la huella y son reforzadas con una capa simple de nailon.
Canales anchos laterales y circunferenciales ayudan a resistir el deslizamiento sobre agua ( hydroplaning) y pequeñas ranuras en los bloques, crean una cantidad adicional de bordes adherentes, para mejorar la tracción sobre superficies resbalosas.Įl Discoverer STT PRO utiliza la tecnología de construcción Armor-Tek3 de Cooper, la cual proporciona una estructura robusta de tres capas de poliéster que aumentan, aún más, la resistencia a pinchazos. Segmentos que no permiten la retención de piedras en la base de las ranuras, ayudan a prevenir pinchazos causados por la posible perforación de estas piedras. El neumático nuevo posee una profundidad de huella honda, tacos y "palas" alternados sobre los hombros, que mejoran la tracción sobre superficies lodosas o sueltas, y hoyuelos que permiten la limpieza de lodo por si mismos. El diseño del Discoverer STT PRO proporciona una capacidad todoterreno impresionante, combinada con niveles aceptables de civilidad y tracción en carreteras.Įl Discoverer STT PRO posee un compuesto de caucho resistente a cortes y astillas, moldeado en un patrón agresivo y con espacios amplios entre los bloques. Fue desarrollado para conductores de picops, Jeeps y utilitarios deportivos (SUV, por sus siglas en inglés), que desean una tracción confiable todoterreno, sin sacrificar el rendimiento dentro de las carreteras. While Off-Road Maximum Traction tires, which are often called mud tires, are branded with the M+S symbol and able to churn through deep snow, their typical oversize applications and the relative absence of snow-biting sipes in their large lugs can challenge their on-road wintertime traction on packed snow and icy surfaces.Įl Discoverer STT PRO de Cooper pertenece a la categoría: Tracción Máxima Fuera De Carretera para camiones ligeros. Two wide, strong steel belts support the tread and are reinforced by a single nylon cap ply. The Discoverer STT PRO utilizes Cooper's Armor-Tek3 Construction technology, which features a robust, three-ply polyester casing to improve puncture resistance. Wide lateral and circumferential channels aid hydroplaning resistance, and in-block siping creates additional biting edges for improved grip in slippery conditions. Anti-stone retention ribs at the base of the tread grooves eject small rocks to assist with preventing punctures due to stone drills. Deep starting tread depths and alternating cleats and scoops in the shoulder lugs enhance traction in mud and other soft terrain, and mud release dimples help the tire self-clean. The Discoverer STT PRO is designed to provide impressive off-road capability combined with acceptable levels of on-road traction and civility.īeginning with a robust, chip- and tear-resistant compound, the Discoverer STT PRO is molded into an aggressive, high-void tread pattern.
