Hot Retread
Hot retreading, also called mould cure retreading, applies uncured rubber to a buffed casing and cures the entire assembly in a heated mould that shapes the new tread pattern. This method allows manufacturers to create any tread design and produces a finish similar to a new tyre. Hot retreads are widely used for commercial truck and bus tyres.
