TIRES
OVERLOAD
Overloading is the cause of many kinds of cord
body breaks and is the m ost costly of a ll truck tire
ab u ses. Such breaks are due to abnormal flexing or
overw orking of the cord body of the tir e .
O verload flex breaks occur in the sid ew all or
in the shoulder of a tir e and run with the circu m
feren ce of the tir e . Som etim es they are only two
or three inches long.
Other tim es they w ill extend partly around the
tir e , resulting either in a la rg e blowout or a pinch
ed tube which allow s the tir e to go flat.
N orm al flexing of a tir e can go on indefinitely
without causing any appreciable damage to the cord s.
But if the tir e is overw orked or overflexed from
overload, abnorm al heat is generated and the cords
becom e fatigued and break.
Underinflation w ill cau se this sam e resu lt. In
