Our concept for your lowest overall driving costs

We know that cost efciency is the key. And this is precisely why Continental Truck Tires pay in the long-term, as their performance benets extend beyond a tires normal lifespan to be repeated again and again, thanks to the ContiLifeCycle. The durability of Continental Truck Tires begins with the new tire and is considerably extended by options including professional regrooving, intelligent casing management (ContiCasingManagement) and our premium retread. The mutually harmonized components of the ContiLifeCycle make a considerable contribution to the reduction of tire costs and thus achieving the lowest overall driving costs.

Safety remarks
The extensive technical data and other information relating to tires and accessories on the following pages have been compiled to reect as accurately and completely as possible the current state of development. If this Technical Data Book is to be used as a basis for particularly important decisions, further data covering relevant standards such as ETRTO 1 ), DIN 2 ) and WdK 3 ) can also be used. Special information can, of course, also be obtained from us at the following address: Continental Reifen Deutschland GmbH P.O. Box 169 30001 Hannover Germany This service brochure is for information purposes only. All liability is excluded, whether for damage or for other legal reasons (see also page 2). All designs are in compliance with DOT 4 ) regulations and are marked accordingly. Since 1982 all tires have been standardized in accordance with ECE 5 ) directive 54 and thus also in accordance with the current EU 6 ) tire directives. The data provided in this guide is based on average operating conditions as normally found in central Europe. Please contact us with respect to operating conditions differing from the above, e.g. for uses outside Central Europe. The tire sizes given in this guide are not always identical to the ones available in the size range. Lower ination pressure, greater loads or higher speeds than those recommended by the vehicle or tire manufacturer shorten the service life of the tire. These instructions must be followed if vehicle safety and that of those tting tires is to be guaranteed. This applies above all to instructions regarding tire pressure. Failure to comply with these instructions could result in tire damage that may even lead to tire blow-outs under certain circumstances. This, in turn, could cause trafc accidents involving damage to property and/or personal injury (see also page 5).
Operating instructions
Load capacity and speed When determining the minimum tire size necessary for the axle of a vehicle, the authorized weight and the maximum design speed of the vehicle should always be used as a basis. Trailers rst coming into service on or after January 1, 1990 must be equipped with tires suited for maximum speeds of at least 100 km/h, unless the trailer is clearly marked for a lower speed. The so-called tolerance catalogue must also be taken into consideration here. Nominal load capacity = 100% load, as the load index also indicates *). Reference speed This is the speed assigned as per nominal load capacity of the tire. The load capacity can be exceeded when the vehicle, due to its construction, has a lower maximum speed and vice versa (see the tables on page 12 and 13). Ination pressure The ination pressures indicated in the tables are minimum values given for reference purposes. All ination pressures apply to the cold tire, i.e. the state in which the tire is in after having stood outdoors for several hours, not exposed to intense sunlight. M + S tires May be tted on commercial vehicles whose construction allows for a higher maximum speed than approved for the tire if the tires lower approved speed is clearly posted in the vehicle in the drivers eld of vision (e.g. sticker on the instrument panel).
(DIN 7804/7805 and ECE-R 54)
Mixed tment (radial/crossply) While it is permissible for a vehicle weighing more than 2.8 t to be tted axlewise with tires of different construction, it is recommended that tires of the same type be tted in all wheel positions. Rims Only the specied rims may be mounted on new commercial vehicles series. Tapered bead seat rims with a diameter of 16" or less should be equipped with safety shoulders (e.g. round hump) if tubeless radial tires are tted on them. The rim sizes printed in bold type in the table on page 38 are optimal Continental sizes with respect to service life, wear pattern and durability. Wheels The load capacity must be adequate in all cases.

Tire designations
In the past the tire load capacity category was indicated solely by a PR number. Now a numerical code the load index (LI) is used to exactly indicate the tires load carrying capacity. See also page 6 and 8. A speed symbol (SI) is used to designate the speed rating of the tire, as shown in the representation below. The use of the LI and SI was prompted by the introduction of ECE * ) regulation no. 54 and the EU tire directive for Europe (in force as of January 1, 1993), according to which pneumatic tires intended for road use at speeds in excess of 80 km/h must carry an operational designation comprising LI (single/ dual) and SI. Alongside the nominal operational designation a tire may also bear an additional operational designation, e.g. with a lower LI and an SI for higher speeds. These specications have to be included. Example: 315/70 R 22.5 152/148 L 154 K 150 These specications form part of the designation according to US Safety Regulation FMVSS 119 * * ), which covers all new pneumatic tires for light trucks, trucks, buses and trailers intended for use on public highways as well as motorcycle tires. Canada and Israel also use this specication. Date of manufacture The last 4 digits of the DOT ID no. indicate the week and year of manufacture.

Units of measurement and denitions (DIN 70020)

As a matter of principle, the technical data in the tables always complies with the international standards as specied by ISO and the ETRTO. Further details such as other tire sizes or designs, plus the static radius and the rolling circumference comply with DIN/WdK Guidelines. Lengths are given in millimetres (mm). Max. operational width is the maximum permitted width. This includes scuff ribs, decorative ribs, lettering and permanent growth during use. Dynamic deformations are not included. Static radius is the distance from the tire center to the ground level. Measurements are checked on tted-tires inated to the ination pressure specied in DIN 70020 Part 5. Rolling circumference is the distance covered by each revolution of the tire. Load capacities are given in kgs (weight in the sense of mass) Dual-tire spacing Maintaining the minimum spacing distance ensures that the two tires in a dual tment arrangement function without any infringement of the ETRTO standards providing the tires are not tted with chains. In the course of development, a variety of designations for tire dimensions have been introduced, some of which are used concurrently. The following combination is most frequently used: tire width in mm, then H : W (height : width) in % and nally the codes for the tire construction for example R for radial and - for crossply and the nominal rim diameter as code. When planning vehicle wheel space, automotive designers must proceed on the basis of the maximum values for tire width and outer diameter, taking into account the tires static and dynamic deformation. In this way they ensure that all standardly approved tires will t in all cases. If this is not possible in exceptional cases, appropriate measures are to be taken to exclude any possible risk to safety.

1) Dual-tires = 2 x single load capacity 2) A sign indicating the max speed must be attached to trailers restricted to speeds below 100 km/h (62 mph). 3) Ask the tire manufacturer about these applications. Tires with SI ratings P and Q under full load at speeds of over 140 km/h should be inflated an extra 0.1 bar for every excess 10 km/h. No excess loads are applicable over 65 km/h for tires on heavy trailers (with laden weight > 3.5 t). The load/speed variation given on this page do not apply to the additional service description (the so called Single Point). See general notes on page 5. This table is only applicable in conjunction with air pressure multiplier on page 14. If applied please check dual spacing (dual tire contact) and rim status.

Example: In the case of a K-rated tire (110 km/h) and nominal inated pressure of 7.5 bar, the ination pressure can be increased to 8.85 bar if the vehicles maximum design speed is set at 40 km/h (1.18 x 7.5 bar) to exploit an increased load capacity of 115% of nominal load capacity.

Offset The offset is the distance from the center of the wheel to the inside surface of the wheel disk on the hub. The wheel insertion depth can be positive, negative or zero. The insertion depth not only ensures adequate space for the brake drums, it also determines drive characteristics, tracking width, steering swivel, pin offset and wheel bearing guidance. In the case of dual tire tment, the insertion depth also inuences the distance between centers.

M + S Designation
All Continental drive axle tires have the M + S designation. In addition, special steering axle and trailer tires also have this designation. The best traction on wintry roads is obtained by HSW-/HDW-Scandinavia tread patterns. Below you nd the most common products from our truck tire range. On the opposite page you will nd all Continenatl M + S tires.

Regrooving recommendations
All Continental tires on which regrooving is permitted have on both sidewalls, in accordance with ECE regulation 54, the word REGROOVABLE The additional tread depth of up to 4 mm gained by regrooving means a signicant increase in performance. As part of their design, all-steel truck tires have a so-called tread stock between the upper edge of the belt and the tread grooves. This tread stock is intended to prevent stones etc. penetrating into the steel belt and the casing. Provided it is marked REGROOVABLE, a commercial vehicle tire may be regrooved down to a residual undertread thickness of 2 mm above the breaker or belt. All additional regulations of the respective country must be met. Although tires can be retreaded after reaching the legal wear limit, regrooving is not advisable in every case. The tread stock thickness is reduced and stones etc. can more easily penetrate and damage the steel belts, leading to rust formation. This has a decidedly negative effect on the tires suitability for remolding. The best time for regrooving is when the tread is worn down to about 3 mm. The tire must then be checked to make sure the wear is even all round. Attention should be paid to local or uneven wear patches. HSL 2+ ECO-PLUS

In some countries (e.g. Germany for KOM-100 coaches and Austria for coaches) regrooving of front axle tires for coaches is prohibited. In general, regrooving on front axle coach tires is not recommended. All Continental tires on which regrooving is permitted are marked regroovable.

Regrooving should be carried out by an expert, in order to avoid premature failure as well as any reduction in the tires suitability for retreading.

All Continental tires on which regrooving is permitted have on both sidewalls, in accordance with ECE regulation 54, the word REGROOVABLE The additional tread depth of up to 4 mm gained by regrooving means a signicant increase in performance. As part of their design, all-steel truck tires have a so-called tread stock between the upper edge of the belt and the tread grooves. This tread stock is intended to prevent stones etc. penetrating into the steel belt and the casing. Provided it is marked REGROOVABLE, a commercial vehicle tire may be regrooved down to a residual undertread thickness of 2 mm above the breaker or belt. All additional regulations of the respective country must be met. Although tires can be retreaded after reaching the legal wear limit, regrooving is not advisable in every case. The tread stock thickness is reduced and stones etc. can more easily penetrate and damage the steel belts, leading to rust formation. This has a decidedly negative effect on the tires suitability for remoulding. The best time for regrooving is when the tread is worn down to about 3 mm. The tire must then be checked to make sure the wear is even all round. Attention should be paid to local or uneven wear patches. HSR

Technical Data Book Maintenance and care

The prerequisite for successful maintenance and care is the correct choice of tire, in accordance with the recommendations of the tire manufacturer. Refer also previous sections on this subject. Storage Unused tires should be stored in cool, dry, dark and lightly ventilated rooms. Tires which are not tted on rims should be stored standing up. Avoid contact with fuel, lubricants, solvents and chemicals. Should tires, tubes and bead aps need to be stored temporarily, they may age more quickly and develop cracks if they are exposed to intense sunlight or extreme heat. Effective air circulation accelerates this process. Inner tubes may be particularly affected if their packaging is damaged. Fitting the tire Before taking off a tire, unscrew and remove the valve insert; then wait until all the air has escaped. If a tube-type tire is tted with an angled valve as per DIN 7786-80 GD 80, unscrew the valve stem and wait until the escaping air ceases to make noise before removing the tire. Particular care should be taken when tting the tire. Only rust-free rims of the right size should be used. These should not be damaged or show any signs of wear and tear. The loose ange side should be examined with great care. Always use new rubber tubeless valves or new inner tubes and aps on new tires or new seals for tubeless metal valves. Take special care after tire repairs: inner tubes stretch in use and may form dangerous folds when re-tted. If in doubt, always t new inner tubes in order to avoid tube failure. It is particularly important with large tires that these should already t on the rim ange with as little ination pressure as possible. See also WdK-Guideline 104, where detailed tting recommendations are given. As a guide: When tting, do not exceed 150% of the maximum standard ination pressure. Under no circumstances must 10 bar be exceeded. Use only recommended tting tools and equipment. Should the tire bead be jammed on the rim and the pressure be high, the bead may get damaged or even destroyed. With tube type tires, check that valves still move freely after the ller nozzle has been removed. This is important for later ination pressure checks under difcult conditions. Fast-running wheels should be balanced statically and dynamically to ensure smooth running. Fitting the wheel on to the vehicle Vehicle axle data such as toe-in, king pin inclination and castor as well as axle alignment must be checked and if necessary adjusted to within tolerances. Only then should the wheel be tted. When tting make sure that the axle hub is perfectly centered. Extra care is necessary with large, heavy tires which do not have special centering. If necessary, re-balance the wheel when it is tted on the vehicle. Always remember to check that the valves move freely and are easily accessible. Valve extensions are necessary for dual tires. Checking the ination pressure requires the free movement and easy access of the valves, even when they have become dirty during operation. Valve caps, preferably high pressure type, must be tted. On rolling road testers where the vehicle performance is examined, restrictive testing regulations must be observed: depending on the roller diameter only short tests may be carried out and these must always below maximum speed. If a vehicle has all the same type of tires e.g. radial tires, this will guarantee optimum driving characteristics and maximum driving stability. The use of different tire designs on each axle should be a rare exception. Where vehicles are being used on the highway, minimum tread depths as specied in the latest national regulations must be observed. For motor vehicles, trailers or semitrailers it is essential that tires of the same construction are tted to the same axle. Minimum tread depth The legal minimum tread depth is 1.0 mm and must cover the complete width and circumference of the tread. The depth should be measured in the tread groove with the tread wear indicator (the area with the indicator should not be taken). Vehicle in operation The ination pressure must be correct. Otherwise poor vehicle handling and pronounced, irregular tread wear are inevitable. If pressure is insufcient, the rolling resistance will increase and with it the fuel consumption. Hidden defects in the tire may also occur which later lead to tire failure.

Technical Data Book Maintenance and care
Tire ination pressures specied by vehicle and tire manufacturers are contained in the vehicle manual and, for example, on the vehicle mud guard. These may vary with different loads and service conditions, and must be adjusted before commencing a journey. Specied ination pressures always apply to cold tires. An increase in ination pressure during running is normal and must never be re-adjusted. Do not reduce pressure when the tires are hot. Never use different ination pressures for the same axle. The spare wheel should be inated to at least the maximum ination pressure given in the vehicle manual. Remember to always include the spare wheel when checking ination pressures. A balanced, even style of driving reduces the strain on the tires. Every hasty reaction on the accelerator, brakes or steering shortens the life of the tires. The same also applies of course to all other forms of peak strain such a severe scufng of the tire along the curb or driving over obstacles that may be in the road. These can all result in damage to the tires construction. Strain on the tire should be avoided. This has the same effect as insufcient pressure. Do not exceed the tires permitted maximum speed, otherwise tire damage is inevitable.
Maintenance and care of the vehicles tires The high quality standard of the tires and vehicle, which is achieved by the measures and recommendations stated above, can only be ensured by the regular checking of all factors. For example, pressure checks and external inspections of the tires (including the sidewalls to the inside of the vehicle and between dual tires). Pressure checking devices and small replacement parts such as valve inserts, caps and extensions should always be close at hand. Tires age as a result of physical and chemical processes and this may impair their performance. Tires, which are tted to mainly stationary vehicles or those which are not used regularly, are particularly prone to premature ageing.
Unfavourable weather conditions also accelerate the ageing process as well as the storage conditions thar were covered in the previous section. An expert should always be called in to make a qualied judgment on the tires. Regrooving of the tread pattern usually when there are 2 or 3 millimetres of tread depth left should be carried out only by qualied experts when the word REGROOVABLE is displayed on the tire sidewall. Tire repairs Tire damage may initially be just a question of damage to the outer rubber: however, this apparently supercial damage can eventually extend down to, or into, the tires reinforcing materials (casing/belt). Therefore no time should be lost in taking the tire to a specialist for assessment as soon as any external damage is detected. Damage to the reinforcing materials, for instance due to a nail puncture or a deep cut, is particularly dangerous because dirt and moisture may penetrate during the time between when the damage occurred and when it was detected. This may even result in more serious damage to the reinforcing materials. Damage to the inside of a tire can also cause a slow puncture.
The tire is then driven underinated and consequently subjected to excessive strain. All these factors can make a tire non-repairable by the time the damage is nally discovered. If the tire is repaired regardless, even if it is repaired by a reputable tire specialist, it is possible that tire failure can still occur as a result of an overstrained area, other than that originally damaged. This is why each tire must be carefully inspected by a tire expert before it is repaired. For only a specially trained person can decide whether it is possible to repair the tire and whether the tire will be capable of delivering safe performance after the repair. Repairs must be carried out by an authorized workshop, which is then responsible for inspecting the tire and for doing the job properly. Repairs to the wheels are forbidden.

Load/Speed Index The nominal load carrying capacity of a tire is expressed as the Load Index (LI) and is expressed in kg. In addition to this, a reference speed is also determined in connection with the nominal load carrying capacity (refer to speed symbol and reference speed). Speed symbol and reference speed (km/h) Each speed symbol is assigned a reference speed in km/h or mph. The tire speed is assigned the nominal load carrying capacity of the tire. PR Ply-rating (also called PR), is an international designation for the solidity of the tire casing. In the past, the tire load-carrying class was only expressed by means of a PR number. The exact designation of load carrying capacity is nowadays expressed as a numerical code, namely the Load Index (or LI).
