How It's Made Remolded tires

[@spillow762]

restoring old tires sounds like a brilliant idea from both cost and environmental aspects

Have to say this looks far better than normal retreaded truck tyres but I might be wrong. Nice to see they are recycling tyres just hope they are safe.

Never seen this done before Fantastic Work. Remember all the food you eat arrives at stores on Trucks running many of these rebuilt tires .

[@laupstad]

You never know what might come in handy, knowing more is never a bad thing!

[@jatinder142047]

Good work here Of course they are safe as brand new tires But as well they are more good for environmental issues

[@Wildtwon76]

I have been reading the arguments on the practicality of retreaded tires and as a technician who worked for a short time in the industry I agree with views on both sides! However there are different methods and technologies in this industry. I believe this was a "Bandag" or Goodyears "Wingfoot" type retread. I worked at TCI tire in south Nashville which used Michelin technology. Michelin has a similar approach with exception of using x-ray to inspect casings and the tread is reapplied in a single rubber strip that is applied after the carcass has been skived filled and patched. Then the tire is placed in a sleeve that applies pressure from the inside of the tire pushing out and the tread covering applies pressure to force adhesion while it is placed in a vacuum chamber with i believe as many as 60 plus tires to cure at 450 degrees for an hour. Here are some factors that play in part of the safe use of retreaded tires season- retreads and any tire can and will fail with the combination of low pressure and high temps! Use- Majority of retreads never see highway but used in off road conditions where tire longevity and expense is an issue with road or trail conditions. Retreads are allowed on rear tractor axles and trailer axles and never on steers! Retreads are only as good as the casing they are built on! Casing junk? Retread will fail! So are these tires junk? No they have their purpose! One is recycling! Reuse is the best way. I will invite anyone to go by a retread car or truck tire and be amazed at their longevity. Its all opinion and experience. For those that base their opinion solely on this video< I encourage them to volunteer to pick up some blown carcasses or "Gators" of the highways.

[@Clutch180]

I remember hearing about a story how one of these molds launched into the air off a semi's wheel and pierced a lady's windshield within the opposing traffic on the highway. The mold was effectively turned into a 140 mph missile

[@oldtwins]

+Clutch180 Yea they can be dangerous. Should only use these for low speed inner city runs. Never anything on the interstate or other roads beyond 55mph.

[@kleetus92]

+The Product Anyone who's ever driven an interstate sees these carcasses all over the place... they may be fine for inner city low speed runs, but they are garbage for anything else. You're also not allowed to use them on steering tires, or school buses. That should tell you something about their reliability.

[@Raven4122]

+kleetus92 yes you will see some tread that has separated from the carcass, that type the tread is glued on. You will see some failures but their are FAR more tires out there NOT failing..This video shows a "REMOLDING" type of recap.. They dont separate like the Glue on treads do..

[@kleetus92]

+Raven4122 Wasn't aware they have 2 different types of recaps, never heard of the glue on tires. Are the remolded tires approved for use on steering tires or school buses?

[@Raven4122]

in some states check the state laws, I was on interstate today saw seveal glue on recappa on the road!

[@Drevilbreakfast]

It's late and I'm on that part of youtube again

[@nuttenglotzer007]

[@Eunus-wv5pj]

Delta_STW5 j

[@OMGITSAPPLEZ]

you can use them on trailer tires quite well, you just need to have a little bit extra tyre pressure since it doesn't flex as much

[@kleetus92]

After seeing them take a die grinder to the already broken inner steel cords of the tire, it makes perfect sense why you see these things scattered over the highways like dead animals. My dad ran recaps once, blew out, and took the side of the truck bed with it. Never again. Low speed low temperature operation, like an inner city garbage truck, yeah, maybe. Open highway across Arizona, no fucking way.

[@sigmaprojects]

+kleetus92 exactly!

[@DreamTheory1994]

+kleetus92 well recaps just have new tread glued onto the old tire and its not vulcanized like remolds.

[@Johnny96ri]

On a conventional cap, yes, it is. The few that are not (Bandag's cold-caps) are, if anything, better.

[@parteibonza]

Holy Fuck!!

[@sergiovidal-luengo3261]

This is actually illegal in my country, I don't understand why is legal in the US.

[@CalibreDesigns]

Just what I was thinking. A quick google search suggests over £200 per tyre (re-moulded), so assuming the refurbishing process takes about 2 hours per tyre, they could be making huge profits, especially if they get the tyres free in the first place. Furthermore, they may be provided with bursaries for this kind of thing, seeing as reinforced tyres can't be easity recycled.

[@callmejerm]

You are correct; you can't use retreads on the very front wheels. The are also forbidden ANYWHERE on school buses and on trucks that haul gasoline.

[@monstrmchine]

A majority of aviation tires are retreads. As long as the carcass (core, cords, bead, and sidewalls) are still good then it's safe.

[@g3rrypaton]

30 to 60% less reliable too but if the cost is more important than your life then up to the individual

[@Thomass7586]

Looks good but is it any better then retreads from 20 to 30 years ago. It would be nice to be able to reuse tires over and over again. Save on all the land fills overflowing with tires that are an eyesore. I still see lots of retreads on the highways that have come off of these big trucks. Nice video. Thanks for sharing.

[@marclaw4511]

Had 2 remoulds on an Audi 20 years ago.Went round an island and both treads left the tyre.These are death traps.

[@bradleymadaris]

Ouch. I wouldn't dare put remoulds on my Audi. I know they say that tires don't matter, but they really do! I wouldn't put anything but Pirelli from the P series on mine. Those things last years with constant highway usage!

[@thunderwindz4773]

who says tires dosent matter? This should only be used for slow heavy machnery only a greedy idiot would use remoulded on a car lol

[@bradleymadaris]

Just average people. I wasn't saying it as a whole. I've had tons of people, even mechanics tell me tires don't matter which is the biggest lie I've ever heard.

[@shawnatshawn]

You got scammed. Retreads done like this are most certainly safe... The remolds on your vehicle were definitely not done properly.

[@marclaw4511]

Back then things were different.Still drove home about a couple of miles as the tyres didn't deflate.Paid £7.00 each back then.What a cheapskate i was.

[@sisutrucks]

we have had new tires blow also, retreads are getting very good now, but for long haul new high end tires is the best option:)

[@TheDweed]

This tires are more than good for farmers, or slow motion trucks going 40-50 km's. This tires are extremely expensive if you wanna buy a new one. Nothing dangerous for these purpose, but not recommended for international truck transport, where a camion is driving 140-160 km/h, and not recommended for normal cars.

[@contytub]

In some countries trucks can't go faster than 100km/h so not that bad for that either ...

[@bikeranand]

excellent video. explains from scratch. thanks a lot

[@Nolan45000]

this is why you see scraps of tread on the side of the road, they peel off, these are not safe.

[@gabehartman6832]

+Microwaved Gerbil Absolutely I worked in transportation and we were forbidden from purchasing recaps for out power units or trailers. They never last.

[@foxman105]

+Microwaved Gerbil Actually no. Retreads and new truck tyres have about the same failure rate according to statistics.

[@joefairchild6909]

retreads and remolded tires are different..... retreads just have new tread glued (vulcanized) on, where remolds have the tread heat molded like they do with a new tire

[@Irishrebel092]

+Gold Winger more or less, remolded tires are just as good as new tires. i work with new, used, and remolded tires every single day and i've seen more used tires fail than i have remolded. now retreaded tires, i see fail all the time.

[@wigs1098]

+Aluminum Cloud Its not only these tyres that delaminate, it happens to non remoulded/re-treaded tyres too. Have had it happen many times on trailer tyres in the past.

[@DSSeraph]

I did this myself several years ago, but it was a lot more "archaic" in the cap shop where I worked, First of all we only did each step once, the inspection, buffing, skiving, gluing, capping, and then cooking. Second, we actually didn't do any of the steps with the sides of the tire, only treads, and during the gluing phase it wasn't small strips, it was that big strip you see used on the sides here. Third, We actually used huge pressure cooking ovens, instead of what the video shows.

[@zhemin]

Looks real safe ;"D

[@fartman10284]

I have had Green Diamond remolded tires. Silicium carbide chunks in the tread pattern gave it better traction than Blizzaks. Three sets with no issues with tread failure.

[@PsychoSteeIIord]

Probably 30-60% less safe too. I'd rather get new tires.

[@kristianjordet2256]

Wrong. They work as hell

[@kristianjordet2256]

Whoaa! Easy mate! I've handled a many houndred of theses tires, and they do their duty!

[@okaydokey7852]

Kristian Jordet stop claiming bullshit you probably never handled them at all i guess. Those tires are dangerous, and several tests always show the same result, they are not to be trusted. And if you arent completely dumb, then you would have seen in the Video WHY that is. Only inspected by eye for damages of the Mesh. The mesh gets drilled and grinded, weakening it even more. It is NOT possible by eye inspection to see if the mesh is damaged below the surface of the tire.

[@kristianjordet2256]

@Okay Dokey You can do what the fuck you want for my sake, and it's much possible it's different in the rest of the world, but here in Norway, they are 99% secure. I don't really care what you "guess" or what you think.

[@mrBDeye]

When a truck tire starts to break apart on the highway you'd better get out of the way. I've seen the heavy rubber fly across 2 lanes only to smash into oncoming trafic injuring 2 families. This remolding of old dry rot tires is an accident waiting to happen.

[@kennethzuchlewski2221]

Those are the same tires that fly apart on the Thruway and smash through your windshield. Been there! If you travel on a long trip, look along the side of the road. All those black chunks are recapped tire shrapnel. You will see miles of them.

[@PanduPoluan]

Recapped are not the same as remolds.

[@benjaminrockfordsenior9966]

so that's the stuff i see at the side of the road

[@57superchevy]

oh great! thank you so much! who ever came up with this bright idea is why we all see huge long slabs of thick tread on the express way -___- not only dangerous but makes a damn mess. please if you're getting new tires, spend some extra bucks on them, itll last longer and its safer for not only you but all of us.

[@kulwindergill9338]

I paid 500 doller for new tires,i replaced every tires,yes its expensive but hey there are peoples driving on the road,im feel more safe with new tires.......

[@CorpseGrin]

Love seeing these all over the interstate

[@Glenn7719]

These tires should be illegal.

[@DancingTeapot]

How so?

[@Glenn7719]

Karl P. Was in a car years doing 70mph on the motorway and it going bang, the entire outta tread had came off the centre part it was glued to.

[@BlinkPls]

bob hope also, they're not glued, get your facts straight.

[@phuturephunk]

bob hope Generally, consumer grade tires used on passenger vehicles are not re-worked like this. This process is reserved for larger truck and construction vehicle shoes that cost thousands to replace and can contribute greatly to the overall overall operating expense of said vehicle. You basically should never use re-worked passenger tires. Also, your situation sounds like you had a catastrophic failure of the tire core. Probably bad manufacturing.

[@danedu4519]

bob hope that's probably the reason I see a lot of tires on the freeway from large trucks, they probably use those tires to save money, but they are just more dangerous to the public!!! should be illegal, I few times I saw those tires exploding

[@TerryClarkAccordioncrazy]

A lot of people are commenting that this is dangerous but from what I understand most airlines use re-moulded tyres so presumably it must be safe because aircraft take off and land much faster than road vehicles and we don't hear of incidents with tyre blowouts.

[@khaee7678]

Far as i know airliners uses new tires...

[@TerryClarkAccordioncrazy]

Khaee Nearly 100 percent of the world’s airlines use retreaded tires. 80 percent of the tires used by the commercial aviation industry are retreaded. www.goodyear.eu/ro_ro/images/Next%20Tread%20Tyre%20Line%20Up.pdf

[@thegentleman1541]

[@davidjames666]

[@masterchrono6671]

[@march11stoneytony]

Lol

[@KarlUKmidlands]

lol LOL

[@Debbiebabe69]

I ran duct taped tyres once on my bicycle when i was a kid, though, since the duct tape makes the tyre 'slick' it would go faster like Formula 1 slick tyres do....

[@judgemental9253]

Debbiebabe69 yeah that's a no. The reason slicks are better for traction is because they are made of a very soft compound, and they have no tread, making a much larger contact patch on the ground. They have no direct impact on speed(besides traction). And no. Your duct tape slicks do nothing apart from making you look poor.

[@nßultz1440]

i had a tire with a hole and i used a piece of an old innertube and duct tape to cover the hole, worked for a while.

[@SpikedGamingOfficial]

depends, my shop usually get casings from customers. We sell recapped tires for $245, unless you have a good casing then we sell it at around $195 to you. if you bring us casing your get a discount on any recapped tire you buy from us. However, most truckers will come in and buy new tires, they get no discount, and since they usually just leave the casings, we have them recapped (if they are good) which costs us money, but overall we make good profit off them. certainly more than selling new one

[@iant720]

Guys, it's illegal to run re-treads on front.. it's flat out dangerous at that point. However well they maybe less reliable, re-treads have been around for awhile, and relatively safe on the rear tires and dual.

[@fhuber7507]

That's whey there are retread caps all over the freeway in summer...

[@matthewweisenburger2095]

F Huber you realize not all of those are retread caps right? An original tire can lose its tread in the same way.

[@davidmorris6439]

These are flat out dangerous anyway. Ive had them destroy my car on the freeway. I couldn't imagine what it would do to a motorcyclist.

[@mcbm22]

UPS is running recaps for steer tires on there trucks...why? Keep cost down. Remember when you never saw a dirty UPS truck? Now it's all the time. It's always about the $$$$ forget safety

[@matthewweisenburger2095]

Mark Running recaps on the steer tires is not DOT legal. Where did you come up with that info? No trucks in the US run recaps on the steers. With the amount of random highway patrol stops on trucks no one would get away with that.

[@62636263c]

Back in the 1960s, my Father owned, what was then called, a recap shop. The buffing was done by hand, holding the tire up against a wheel that had a bunch of spikes sticking out all over it about a 1/4 inch or so. I remember playing in the pile of rubber shavings as a kid. They then wrapped the tire in a new piece of rubber and baked it in a big electric mole. Once he got a truck load done, someone came to pick them up and Dad got a check. I think they outlawed them herein the late 70s.

[@wildmanofthewynooch7028]

[@EarthWasHere]

idk why these kind of stuff are always interesting

[@laurelmungcal3601]

If you want really safe use brand new quality tires, using remolded tires increasing your life into risk. some cases using brand new turns faulty due to factory defective much more if you used remolded. But in this video only shows how it's made remolded tires to inform people what quality they do it. Here in the Philippines their using a free casted molded rubber and attach into cleaned old tire with adhesive rubber glue. I think much more quality I saw on this video than what they do in my Country, wishing they should watch this video to enhance their skills.

[@kris-english]

Note to self: don't buy tyres in the Philippines... Remoulded tyres are crap at best, but adhesive rubber glue!? A major *WTF* moment.

[@tuannguyenta81]

[@Del-Canada]

If you look at the treads you will see they are off road tires. Not for highway use. Most likely construction vehicles, or forestry vehicles, etc. People in the construction industry do this to save money and the equipment they use the tires on rarely hit speeds of more than 25kph. So blow outs aren't an issue like they are with higher speeds and on the highway.

[@sharonlee1948]

These tires are unsafe and always fall apart or they have Blow outs

[@BullrockMcHammergeil]

that is not true.

[@marcMH]

BullrockMcHammergeil yes, it's true. and sometimes the pieces on the road get accidents to cars on the road, and no way to know about the responsible of this mess. So it's good to be illegal - it's unsafe. =/

[@BullrockMcHammergeil]

Marc Antunes It's not illegal in Germany. But everyone knows we have the world's best engineers and manufacturers, so our stuff is safe.

As example: Opel is also German and it's not even near the other car's brand quality. here, also, it's all a question on money traded by some quality. Theses tires falls apart on the high way (and very dangerous), and it's well known to any car driver.

Note to people, do not run reteads on a pickup or car, but on a drive tire of a semi it a a perfectly safe and cost effective method.

[@ulisscarple]

That casing had broken cords in it. That means it was defective. That means it should have been discarded, not retreaded.

[@ulisscarple]

Ziah Jolléy WHAT video did you watch? @ 1:50 to 2:20 that is clearly broken cords and a HOLE that goes clear through the casing, requiring a patch to be applied to the inside of the casing, so the (POS) casing has some chance of holding some air. "slightly damaging the steel ply " is that how you refer to a section of completely severed steel cords ? I have a lot of really good "slightly damaged" stuff that I would like to sell to you !!!

[@ulisscarple]

Ziah Jolléy Yah, I watched the video. AND I saw the part where they run a carbide burr clear through the tire casing in the tread section. It is NOT a tight fit as the burr is plunged into the hole and they start wallowing the hole out even bigger to clean things up. Broken cord is visible. What video did you watch? Funny thing. They put that steel cord in the tire for a reason, and the reason is because it is needed to handled the heavy loads of heavy trucks. Otherwise they could just make tires out of used chewing gum. When the cord is broken, it can no longer lend any strength to the tire. Support is why the tire employs steel cords in its construction to beef it up, If steel cords were not need they would not be in there, and the tire could just use aggregate mineral fill for its construction. But they do not do that, and the reason is because it would not work very well, just like this tire is a gamble that is not going to hold up when its expose to higher demands of it operation conditions. That is why a tire like that should be thrown away, and hopefully it was never installed on the front of a truck because its just a ticking clock for a blow out.

[@beatachevy289]

The majority of commercial truck lines use retreaded tires regularly in the US. I don't think that is the case in Europe, but apparently they aren't as unsafe as assumed considering they are still around and very much in business.

[@F22C1]

i dont think it should be banned... only regulated so that trucks that actualy drive on public roads faster than 50km/h should not use them. I Bet most tires that blow up on road are remolded ones..

[@keimo2007]

motorcyclists should be outlawed! They poses major hazard to other citizens.

[@145lolzor]

keimo2007 lol how so?

[@nigahiga6400]

Atis Bariss For transporting hazardous goods, remolded/retreaded tires are not permitted. These tires should only be used on mail trucks or other local-only vehicles like inner city buses. They should be stamped with "not for highway use" on the sidewall. Speed generates heat which can cause these remolded tires to fail.

[@balinwire]

We used to be able to buy $15 retreads for our cars, early 70's they were bias ply, maybe they cant recap radials, they worked fine and were safe and less expensive.

[@RoadHazard55]

If you dont like retread tires, dont whine about it on youtube, shut up and buy new ones. ive run retreads for years woth no problems at all, re-CAPS are the scary ones.

[@girayhankaya]

used for what?on a truck or a car?

[@SMX600]

Excellent and Informative.

[@kingoftaurus]

As an ASE master technician, I plead to anyone that is viewing this: Please, I BEG YOU, please! tell everyone you know about the dangers of retreaded tires. SAY NO TO RETREADS!!!

[@iant720]

kingoftaurus Obviously not the best thing, but they've been using re-treads for years... there's also a reason they're illegal to have on the front wheels...

[@SpikedGamingOfficial]

exactly, tires for passenger vehicles or other such tires get tossed into a trailer we have, this trailer is then sent off to some recycling plant. Although, some tires, rarely, can be resold, this why there is a used tire market.

[@hansjosimarchoquehuaytaalc5590]

The cheap will be expensive

[@poiiihy]

i knew about retreaded tires but... remolded tires? new to me

[@Megadriver]

I'd never buy such garbage! I'm not trusting old patched up tires. I get new, premium ones every time. They might cost more, but new tires are worth every penny!

[@IIGrayfoxII]

+megadriver6 I would only buy these to do burn outs with in my car(yes they also make these for some cars) They are cheap and I dont care if they blow during the burn out

[@Megadriver]

IIGrayfoxII There is an idea XD

[@twocoolcats2770]

So much work for so little practical use. Rubber cement works pretty good.

[@satish890]

and then you add the shleem

[@tiberiu_nicolae]

the shleem is then re purposed for later batches

[@max2000warrior]

I'm never going to have anything to do with trucks, but that's awesome.

[@an21982]

проще новое колесо купить!

[@angelface22322]

You'll be surprised at the cost of some brand new truck tires. Reteading them to save 60% makes great sense, especially if you make your livelihood driving truck. Plus, you become a hero because you help reduce pollution. LOL! • Retreads are environmentally friendly. It takes over 20 gallons of oil to manufacture one new truck tire. It takes only 7 gallons of oil to produce a retread. So there!

[@neel35]

DO NOT BUY REMOLDED TIRES! the glue can melt while driving and you will not have a wheel attacked to your car anymore

[@baldieman64]

What glue?

[@MikeDragon]

Attacked to the car? Don't you mean "attached" to the car?

[@neel35]

yes, thank you mike lol :L

[@neel35]

there is on car tires

[@ToAstYNaChO]

Neel J who the hell buys re-molded car tires? they are already cheap as dirt when compared to truck tires, the process is probably more expensive.

[@ABIZITV]

[@t5mikka]

All that effort for a death trap tyre

[@tonys1636]

Remolds or retreaded tyres are fine for low speed vehicles but are prone to excessive heat build up at highway speeds, causing de-lamination and blow outs.

[@Neworder-band]

Remolded tires are very dangerous for alls vehicles!

[@willeason2319]

Schlummer77 really

[@harper222]

The polymerization isn't reliable, especially in low end shops. The strip will sometimes completely come off destroying the tire which would potentially cause the driver to lose control. That's why you see so many strips of tires on the road.

[@PanduPoluan]

That's why it's illegal to use remold tyres as steering tyres. Properly remold tyres are quite safe as load-bearing non-steering tyres. The keyword, of course, is "properly". Too many recap/remold shops cut corners too much.

[@harper222]

What's a "tyre"?

[@ericjx]

He gives a good description of the proper use of remolded tires and you're trying to bust his balls over the spelling his country uses for tire.

[@somekiwidude]

people who say these arent safe have no clue the 160 degree heat and compression will totally mend the rubber together like new and a small gap in the wires under the tread does not weaken them at all you could have 8+ puncture repairs in a tyre and it would still be fine

[@tommueller8780]

looks dodgy as fuck

[@SpikedGamingOfficial]

yup, we keep your tires unless you say you want to take them. If your tires are still good, we sell them as used, if they are junk and you leave them we charge a "tire disposal fee". if you say you want to take your tires, we put them in a bag for you, and off you go with your tire. but as soon as you drive off our property after leaving your tires, they are ours. We either throw them away, or salvage them if they are still good to go.
