Introduction

Core changes in the standard revision

Revision dimensions 2012 version 2020 version
Technical indicators Only limit values are specified New grade classification (Grade 1-5)
Scope of control Except for Category 6 tires Clearly exclude Category 8 tires
Test system Appendix A Calibration Specifications New reference laboratory system

Analysis of key rolling resistance indicators

Take passenger car radial tires as an example:

  • Limit requirements: Ordinary tires ≤10.5 N/kN, snow/run-flat tires are relaxed to 11.5 N/kN
  • Grading: Grade 1 (≤6.5) to Grade 5 (10.6-11.5), products that do not meet the standards are not included in the grading

Testing system innovation

Standards establish a dual benchmark laboratory system:

  1. For passenger car/light truck tires (load index ≤121)
  2. For heavy truck tires (load index>121)

The rolling resistance value interval of the calibrated tire is required to be controlled within (1.0±0.5)N/kN, and the section width is ≤245mm/385mm according to the type


Implementation suggestions

Manufacturers should focus on:

  • Establish a laboratory data traceability system and verify the correlation coefficient regularly
  • Special tires (such as snow tires) need to reserve a limit margin of 1.0 N/kN
  • A judgment value tolerance of 0.3 N/kN needs to be considered when declaring the grade
