RETREADING & REGROOVING

Retreading
Apollo Truck & Bus Radial tires are a premium engineered product, possessing the inherent casing strength required to ensure multiple retread lives. Depending upon the application, our products are designed and manufactured to endure multi-million flex cycles without any fatigue failure.

With the foundation of our strong casing construction, along with our tires capability to demonstrate its durability throughout its service life, make it the tire of choice where multiple retreads are desired.

REGROOVING GUIDELINES
Subject to usage conditions and regular tire maintenance, Apollo’s highly durable casings can provide multiple tire lives. Regrooving and retreading ensures longer serviceability of tires, and helps Apollo Tyres customers to lower their operating costs.

• Regrooving is done on either new or retreaded tire on which the tread pattern has been renewed by cutting into the tread deeper than the original moulded groove depth.
• The regrooving of truck tires should be entrusted solely to fully trained operators.
• Only genuine certified regrooving tools with electrically heated blades should be used.
• A minimum depth of 2/32” remaining undertread rubber is essential to avoid damage at the top breaker belt.
• Particular care should be taken while selecting tires for regrooving and if heavily damaged in the tread area, the tires should be retreaded instead of regrooved.
• Under no circumstances should a tire be regrooved if it is not marked as “regroovable” on the sidewall area by the tire manufacturer.

TIRE CONSTRUCTION AND DIMENSIONS

• Tread:
  Tread comes in direct contact with the road and provides traction required to manoeuvre the vehicle. The design of the tread varies with the application type and axle position in the vehicle. The tread base helps in minimising the temperature.

• Belts:
  Steel belts stabilise the tread, minimise distortion of the tire surface contacting the ground and provide puncture resistance. Steel belts restrict case growing during use and increase the tire’s structural strength.

• Body ply:
  These plies gives the tire its structural strength, ability to contain air pressure, its deflection characteristics and provides sidewall impact resistance. They transmit all load, driving, braking and steering forces between the wheel and tire tread.

• Belt edge filler:
  Rubber skim is placed at the ends of working belts. This aims to reduce the shear forces acting on the belt ends during the tire use.

• Shoulder cushion:
  Shoulder cushions are contoured rubber strips placed on the body ply under the belt ends. They help provide belt contouring and insulate the body ply from belt edges.

• Sidewall:
  The sidewall flexing enables ride comfort and lateral stability. The surface of the sidewall is engraved with all information relating to the loading and speed capacity, inflation pressure, and brand/product name.

• Bead bundle:
  Bead bundles are continuous rubber-coated high tensile wires wound to form a high-strength unit to the specific diameter that fits the inflated tire perfectly on a wheel rim. They are the anchor that maintains the carcass seated on the rim, and resists the pull force of carcass cords tensioned by inflation pressure.

• Inner liner:
  This is made from a compound with very low permeability. It prevents the diffusion of air and moisture through the tire structure.

• Rim strip:
  This is the rubber layer between body ply and wheel rim. It is in direct contact with the wheel rim and is designed to undergo the rigour of mounting and demounting.

• Apex:
  The apex is a rubber profile place above the bead bundle, which provides a smooth transition from the stiff bead area to the flexible sidewall.

• Chafer:
  The chafer is a strip of wire placed around the body ply cord in the bead area. Its purpose is to protect the bead area from damage during mounting/demounting and reduce the effects of chafing between the wheel and tire.

WARRANTY TERMS

ELIGIBILITY
This limited warranty applies to the original purchase of any new APOLLO Truck & Bus Radial tires (“TBR”) having the Department of Transportation (“DOT”) prescribed tire identification number on the tire sidewall. Such tires are eligible only if they are used according to recommendation of vehicle manufacturer and/or Apollo Tires (US) Inc. on the vehicle on which they were originally installed.

This warranty will only apply if all the following qualification requirements are met:

• The tire was purchased after 1st June 2021.
• The tire was purchased from an authorized dealer of Apollo Tires (US) Inc.
• The tire is of a size, has a load rating and speed rating equal to or greater than that recommended by the OE vehicle manufacturer.
• The tire has not become unserviceable due to a condition listed under what is not covered.

In case any Apollo tire covered by this limited warranty should become unserviceable due to a manufacturing related condition during its usable tread life of more than 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) remaining tread, and within six (6) years from date of tire manufacture, Apollo Tires (US) Inc. will give a credit on the following conditions:

TBR Tires

| During the first 2/32nds of the original usable tread and one year from date of purchase.| Tire will be replaced with a comparable new Apollo tire on a free of charge basis. Applicable taxes on the new tire and the cost of mounting, balancing and any other charges in connection with the replacement of the tire shall be paid by the owner/end user.
After the first 2/32nds of the original usable tread or after one year from date of purchase, whichever occurs first.| The credit amount will be determined by multiplying the pre-determined adjustment price* for the tire (excluding taxes) by the percentage of original tread depth remaining on the tire or casing value whichever is higher.

What is not covered under this policy
This limited warranty does not apply to tires which have been subjected to any of the following operational conditions:

Irregular wear or tear or tire damage due to:

1. Accidental damage such as road hazard injury (including punctures, cuts, bulge, snags, impact breaks, stone drilling, concussion, etc.).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Any tire, regardless of how well it is designed or manufactured, may fail prematurely as a result of punctures, impact related damage, improper inflation pressure, overloading, or any other operationally induced conditions than could be related to abuse. Tire failure could result in a risk of property damage or possibly serious personal injury, and even death.

SAFETY WARNING
Serious personal injury or death may possibly result from a tire failure. Tire failures are in many cases prECEded by vibration, sidewall bulges, or irregular wear. If a vibration is felt while driving your vehicle or you observe a sidewall bulge or irregular tread wear pattern, immediately take the affected tire to your nearest qualified tire professional for a complete technical evaluation and report.

TIRE INFLATION
The U.S. Department of Transportation stipulates that a pre-trip vehicle inspection shall be done. Pre-trip vehicle inspections should include cold- tire inflation pressure checks. Remember to check the inflation pressure of inside fitted dual tires. Make sure that the correct valve extensions and brackets are fitted to your tire & rim assembly.
The only correct method for checking tire inflation pressure is by making use of an accurate tire inflation pressure gauge. Kicking or prodding a tire will only indicate to you that a tire is completely flat.

Check inflation pressure on “Cold” tires. Tires are considered as “Cold” if the vehicle has been parked up for three hours or more in a shaded area, or if the vehicle has been driven for less than one mile, and this at a moderate speed.

Never release pressure from a hot tire in order to reach the recommended cold tire inflation pressure. Normal driving causes tires to run hotter, therefore increasing your tires inflation pressure. If you reduce inflation pressure when your tires are hot, you will run the risk of operating your tires in an under-inflated state.

Should it be required to adjust inflation pressure when your tires are hot, adjust their inflation pressure to 10 psi (69 kPa) above the recommended cold inflation pressure. Make sure to recheck the inflation pressure when the tires are cold.

A pressure difference of 5 psi (35 kPa) or more between dual fitted tires is not recommended.
Use the correct type of valve caps in order to keep the valve core clear of dust/debris.

SAFETY WARNING
Inflating an unsecured tire is extremely dangerous. If it were to explode, it could be hurled into the air with a massive explosive force. If struck by this tire and/or rim assembly, it could result in serious personal injury or death.

• NEVER adjust the inflation pressure of a tire unless it is placed in a tire safety cage, secured to a vehicle, or fixed to a tire mounting machine.
• NEVER stand or lean over the tire or front of the valve while inflation adjustment is taking place.
• NEVER re-inflate a truck tire that has been operated continuously and for an extended period of time at a very low inflation pressure (i.e. 80% or less of the normal operating pressure) without first having carried out a complete inspection of the entire tire. This should be done by a certified tire service professional.

TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE
All tires are required to have the specified inflation pressure that will allow them to operate effectively and perform as intended. A tire offers support to the vehicle and its passengers/loads, while transmitting the braking, acceleration and turning forces. Vehicle manufacturers will recommend the inflation pressures for the tires mounted on your vehicle.

SAFETY WARNING
Operating a tire in an under-inflated / improper inflation pressure condition is dangerous.

• Under-inflation will result in excessive tire heat build-up, which when used over an extended period of time, will result in structural damage.
• Over-inflation will result in the tire been more susceptible to cuts, punctures, and impact/road hazard related breaks.

The above-mentioned conditions can cause a tire to fail, which could possibly lead to serious personal injury or death. For the specified tire operating inflation pressure, please consult your vehicle tire information placard / owner’s manual.

In addition to the damage caused to the tire, incorrect inflation pressure could also lead to the following:

• Irregular/rapid/reduced tire wear.
• Affect fuel economy.
• Adversely affect vehicle ride & handling.

TIRE REPAIRS

SAFETY WARNING
Driving on an incorrectly/poorly repaired tire is dangerous. An incorrect/poor repair can be unreliable or can result in further damage been caused to the tire. Sudden and/or dramatic tire failure could occur, resulting in serious personal injury or death. A detailed inspection and subsequent repair of your tire that is carried out in accordance to the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) procedures should only be conducted by a qualified tire service professional.

TIRE DEMOUNTING & MOUNTING
THIS POLICY IS NOT INTENDED TO PROVIDE PROPER TRAINING OR SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR TIRE MOUNTING, DEMOUNTING, BALANCING, ROTATION, OR REPAIR. THESE TASKS SHOULD ONLY AND ALWAYS BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED TIRE SERVICE PROFESSIONALS.
Only specially trained persons should mount tires. For specified tire mounting procedures, consult the requirements in accordance to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

TRUCK TIRE HOT BRANDING
The following limits are recommended when branding Apollo Truck & Bus Radial tires using a hand held branding tool.

SAFETY WARNING
Mounting and demounting of tire and/or rim assemblies can be dangerous. Attempting to demount or mount tires using the incorrect equipment or procedures may result in a tire explosion causing serious personal injury or death. This is a job for a qualified tire service professional only. Never carry out tire service procedures without the correct signed off training, and equipment.
Inflating an unsecured tire is dangerous. If the tire were to explode, it could be hurled into the air with explosive force resulting in serious personal injury or death.

• ALWAYS stand well clear of any tire mounting operation. This is particularly important when the operator inflates the tire.
• When inflating a tire after mounting it onto a rim, ALWAYS use a tire safety cage and an extension air-hose fitted with an accurate pressure gauge and clip-on connecter.
• NEVER adjust the inflation pressure of a truck tire unless it is placed in a safety cage or is secured to the vehicle or a tire mounting equipment.
• NEVER stand or lean over the tire or in front of the valve when inflating.

TIRE MIS-MATCHING

SAFETY WARNING
Operating your vehicle with the incorrect combination of tires is dangerous. Your vehicle’s handling characteristics could be adversely affected which could result in an accident and/or serious personal injury or death. Consult your vehicle owner’s manual and a qualified tire service professional for the correctly specified tire.

DUAL TIRE MATCHING
Tires paired as a dual assembly should be matched up by tire construction and dimension. For truck radial tires, correctly paired dimension tolerances are as follows:

• Diameter: within 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) of each other.
• Circumference: within 3/4 inch (19 mm) of each other.

SAFETY WARNING
Improperly matched tires may result in irregular wear, rapid wear, and ultimately premature tire removal or failure. Failure to match tires in a dual assembly could when operated over an extended period of time also result in sudden/catastrophic tire failure.

HIGH SPEED DRIVING
Driving at high speeds, even with the correct inflation pressure can lead to a loss of a vehicle control, regardless of the speed and handling capabilities of the vehicle. For example, high speed driving is especially dangerous because a road hazard is more difficult to avoid at a high speed, and if impacted, has a greater chance of causing tire damage than at lower speeds. Please refer to the specified load and speed index as indicated on the tire sidewall.

SAFETY WARNING
Driving at high speed is dangerous and can cause a vehicle accident, including serious personal injury or death.

TIRE STORAGE
When tires sit outdoors, unused for long periods of time, their surfaces become dry and more susceptible to ozone and weather checking/cracking, which can lead to serious problems to the inner liner and casing plies. Thus, tires should always be stored in a cool, dry place where water cannot collect inside them. Tires should be stored away from sources of heat and in a clean environment free from grease, petroleum, gasoline, and other substances that can deteriorate the rubber.

SAFETY WARNING
Improper storage can damage your tires in ways that may not be visible that can result in premature aging of the tires and lead to sudden tire failure.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNING
Tire failure due to under inflation/overloading or misapplication is dangerous and may result in serious injury – follow owner’s manual or the tire placard in vehicle. It is recommended to frequently check inflation pressure with an accurate gauge. Only specially trained person should mount tires – when mounting, use safety cage and clip on extension air hose to inflate.

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, 49 C.F.R. § 393.75(d), specify that:
