2、sion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the general requirements forthe standard smooth tire for pavement testing. The tire coveredby this s
3、pecification is intended for evaluation of tire-pavementfriction.1.2 The terminology in this specification is consistent withDefinitions E 867.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard.2.

9、.2 FabricThe fabric shall be polyester body or carcassplies and fiber glass belt plies.NOTE 1Certain proprietary products have been specified since exactduplication of properties of the finished tire may not be achieved withother similar products. This inclusion does not in any way comprise arecomme
10、ndation for these proprietary products nor against similar prod-ucts of other manufacturers, nor does it imply any superiority over anysuch similar products.5. Dimensions, Weights, and Permissible Variations5.1 GeneralDetails of dimensions are listed as followsand are shown in Fig. 2. When tolerance
11、s are not specified, tiredimensions are subject to manufacturers normal tolerances.5.1.1 Design and ConstructionThe tire shall be a sizeG78-15 tubeless type, belted bias construction (two body pliesplus two belt plies). The tread width shall be 5.85 in. (148.6mm) and the cross-sectional tread radius
12、 shall be 15.50 6 2.0in. (393.76 50.8 mm). The tread shall have a thickness of0.385 in. (9.8 mm) and an under tread thickness of 0.10 in. (2.5mm). The tire shall have a recommended cross-section widthof 8.35 in. (212.1 mm) and a recommended section height of6.34 in. (161.0 mm) when mounted on a Tire
13、 and RimAssociation 15x6JJ rim. The cured crown angles shall be 33 62 for the body plies, and 27 6 2 for the belt plies.5.1.2 Wear IndicatorsA visual wear guideline shall belocated on the shoulder of the tire 0.22 in. (5.6 mm) from thetread surface as shown in Fig. 2.1The specification is under the

19、onTest Methods D 412.8.8 Tire Tread DurometerTest Method D 2240, in addi-tion to the following procedures:8.8.1 Use a Type A durometer. (A 0.5-in. (12.7-mm) diam-eter presser foot, Shore, Code XAHAF is recommended.)8.8.2 The durometer shall be calibrated at a reading of 60hardness.8.8.3 Condition th
20、e tire and durometer to equilibrium at73.4 6 3.6F (23 6 2C) before determining tread hardness.8.8.4 The tire tread hardness is to be determined by aver-aging at least one set of 6 readings. A set should consist ofreadings taken at equally spaced intervals across the tread. It isrecommended that addi
21、tional sets of readings be taken aroundthe tread circumference.8.8.5 Apply presser foot to the tire tread as rapidly aspossible without shock, keeping the foot parallel to the treadsurface. Apply just sufficient pressure to obtain firm contactbetween presser foot and tire tread surface. Read the dur
22、ometerscale within 1 s after presser foot is in contact with the tiretread, but after initial maximum transient which may occurimmediately after contact is made.FIG. 1 Test TireFIG. 2 Tire Section, Including Inflated Tire DimensionsTABLE 1 Formulation of Oil Extended Styrene-Butadiene BlendRubber (S

Certification9.1 Tires are to be inflated and measured prior to shipment.Upon request, the manufacturer shall furnish the purcha
26、sercertification that the test tire meets this specification.9.2 All tires under certification shall be subject to manufac-turers normal variation.10. Preservation10.1 Tires shall be kept dry under ordinary atmosphericconditions in subdued light, 70 6 25F (21 6 13.8C). Tiresshould not be stored near
27、 electric motors, welders, or otherozone generating equipment.11. Recommendations for Tire Use and OperationalRequirements11.1 The tire is for skid testing only and is not designed forgeneral highway service. Necessary transporting of test equip-ment should be on commercial tires.11.2 A new tire bre
28、ak in of 200 miles (320 km) min shouldbe made on tires by the purchaser before using the tire fortesting.11.3 The tire shall be operated with not less than 24 psi (165kPa) inflation.11.4 The recommended static test load on the tire shall be1085 lbf (4826 N), with loading to a maximum of 1380 lbf(613
29、8 N) permissible, at 24 psi (165 kPa) inflation.11.5 When irregular wear or damage results from tests orwhen the tire is worn to the wear line, the use of the tire as astandard test tire shall be discontinued.11.6 CautionMeasured friction force and skid number(SN) may be influenced by tire tread har
30、dness. The magnitudeof this dependence is a function of the water depth, pavementcharacteristics, test speed, and tire aging effects.12.
