Interlocked Polymer Compound

The polymer chains of the UC6 SUV tread compound are entangled and connected to each other to form an interlocked polymer network. This improves the wear performance and robustness of the tread. 

Benefit: Excellent wear performance. 

Advanced Silica Compound 

During cornering the Double Tie-bar supports the blocks on the shoulders to form a solid     tread element. The blocks are stabilized and the UC6 SUV delivers direct feedback and high grip. 

Benefit: Precise response and stability when cornering.

Noise Breaker 2.0

Small elements but big impact -

The next evolution of the well-known Noise Breaker which interrupts the noise waves in the grooves and divides them into smaller less

noisy waves. 

Benefit: Comfortable ride with low noise level.

Aqua Drainage & Aqua Channel 

In wet conditions, specially designed Aqua Drainage elements quickly drain water through a unique tube system into the tread grooves. At the same time, the water film under the pattern blocks is pushed into the     Aqua Channel surface sipes, which accelerate water evacuation into the main grooves.

Benefit: High levels of wet braking and  cor-nering grip on wet roads.

Chamfered Edge 

The Chamfered Edge prevents the “rolling-in-effect” of the pattern blocks while braking. The braking pressure is evenly distributed across the tread block surface for maximum contact area. 

Benefit: High stability of each tread block for better braking on dry and wet roads.

While braking or cornering in wet conditions, the Chamfered Edges wipe away the water film for enhanced road contact

Benefit: Excellent wet grip and wet handling performance.
