Technologies

Graphene and silica compound: Vittoria combined its proven graphene research with silica, a material that particularly improves the performance of road tires in the center of the tread. This resulted in a further advance in compound technology. The Corsa N.EXT was developed using this special compound technology. Adding silica to graphene increases tire performance, consistently provides longer mileage and better grip, and also reduces tire weight. According to Vittoria laboratory tests, the new graphene and silica combination, compared with a conventional compound, delivers 9% more speed and improved rolling characteristics, 32% greater grip on the road, 21% greater puncture resistance, longer mileage, and longer tire wear life.

Tubeless TLR Road: TLR construction provides puncture protection and speed. It uses a strong new Zylon material designed for optimal air retention. The tubeless configuration is the lightest and fastest casing option.

Nylon casing: Nylon is a strong and durable synthetic fiber traditionally used to make sturdy tire casings. Nylon threads are thicker than cotton threads, so fewer fit into one inch. Nylon casings are strong and durable, which extends their wear life. However, as a synthetic fiber, nylon is not as elastic (soft and flexible) as cotton.

Graphene technology in tires: Graphene is an innovative material Vittoria uses in tire compounds to improve tire performance. It is the thinnest material in the world and one of the strongest materials ever used by consumers. Graphene consists of a single layer of hexagonally arranged carbon atoms. It interacts with rubber by filling the space between rubber molecules and acts like a magnet, drawing the molecules closer together and improving the overall structure of the rubber. The key properties of graphene are thinness, strength, flexibility, and lightness. In MTB tires, GRAPHENE 2.0 improves wet-surface grip across all product lines.
