5 Advantages of Conti 3G Casing

Tighter belt cord angles help reduce heat buildup and penetrations to protect the casing. Improved bead design for increased durability. 

Continental Tire's technologically-advanced bead core design offers structural durability to extend the life of your casing. Its longevity is due to distinctive features such as a tear-resistant compound at the steel cord edges, increased chafer cord density, and optimized chafer cord angle for improved stiffness across the body ply.

In addition to enhancing the bead core design, Continental Tire also re-engineered the belt cord angles to protect the casing from penetrations and reduce heat build-up. By keeping the casing cool, the rubber and steel components in your truck tire or bus tire are protected from heat-related damage. 

All this advanced engineering means maximum retreadability for your truck and bus tires, and the Lowest Overall Driving Cost for your fleet.

A standardized casing across steer, drive and trailer positions makes casing management easier for fleet operations. 

Did you ever wish you could retread any tire casing for any axle position? Now you can. 

With Continental Tire's standardized casing, the new tire no longer matters when it comes to pairing up retreaded casings. As long as the tires were built on the 3G casing, they can run side-by-side on any axle. 

In terms of casing management, that means you no longer have to keep track of your steer, drive, and trailer position casings. When a tire is ready to be pulled from service on its first life, it can go straight to your ContiLifeCycle™ retread partner, and then be paired up with any other 3G Casing retread for its second service life.
