Retreading

What is tire retreading?

Retreading is a re-manufacturing process that involves replacing worn tread. This process preserves approximately 90% of the material in spent tires, for about 20% of the material cost involved in manufacturing a new tire. Retreading is a safe, eco-friendly option for airplanes, race cars, buses, and delivery trucks looking to get more out of their tire investments, and it’s becoming increasingly popular outside of these industries.

Is tire retreading safe?

Yes! Nearly 80% of the world’s airlines and off-road, heavy-duty vehicles use retreaded tires. Nearly all tire-related accidents result from poor maintenance (e.g. bald or underinflated tires), not tire retreading. Moreover, according to a seminal 2009 study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, “most rubber on the road is the result of poor tire maintenance, not retreaded tires.”

How do I know if my tires are suitable for retreading?

Generally speaking, the following tires are unsuitable for tire retreading:

  • Tires that have been run underinflated
  • Tires with less than 4/32” of tread left
  • Tires that have not been properly maintained
  • Tires that cannot endure a useful second or third life

Ultimately, only your tire retreading specialist can make this determination. To find out whether your tires are suitable, contact your local TIRECRAFT and book an inspection with our retreading specialists.
