Tyre Performance

Tyre Temperature

Tyre temperature is the heat generated within the tyre during operation, caused by internal friction as the rubber flexes under load. Operating temperature affects grip, wear rate, and structural integrity. Excessive temperature from overloading, under-inflation, or high speed weakens the tyre structure and can cause sudden failure. Commercial fleets monitor tyre temperatures through IoT sensors.
