Leading international tyre retreader Vaculug has recently launched the world’s very first ‘A’ rated retread tyre – the KT01 which was recently verified at the Idiada Proving Ground in Spain to provide a lower coefficient of rolling resistance than is required for a new ‘A’ rated tyre.
The KT01 is the latest addition to Vaculug’s fuel saving Kinetik range and a spokesperson for the company says, “This innovative tyre was fully developed by Vaculug’s internal research & development team in the UK and we are proud it has been rated as just as good as a fuel-efficient new tyre.
“By integrating a special blend of silica in the tread we have succeeded in pushing the limits of rolling resistance to increase fuel saving.”
