hello what are treads in HYANIDE

Cat track picture

[edit]

There's no rubber tread on the caterpillar track pictured, which makes it misleading. I propose removing it. MrRK 19:21, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think this Wikipedia article on "tread" should cover all kinds of treads, both rubber treads on round tire and the "tank tread" steel treads on many continuous track vehicles. --DavidCary (talk) 13:11, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

wet roads

[edit]

um, this is for school, how does tread make wet weather driving safer? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.168.79.39 (talk) 09:39, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

siping

[edit]

Is there a difference between "Large sipes" (as mentioned in the siping (rubber) article) and "grooves in the rubber" (mentioned in the tread article) ? --DavidCary (talk) 13:24, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

article ideas

[edit]

some topics that need to be addressed as this article develops: - history - manufacturing process (ie tire molding) - typical tread features: blocks, sipes, grooves, pitch sequence, symmetric vs asymmetric designs, wear bar, typical compound composition and properties - tread influences on: wear, handling, rolling resistance, traction, noise, groove wander (ie feel of the tire on groove roads) - role in forensics (ie use in identifying tire tracks)
