Yokohama 712L

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• Reinforced durability
• Fuel efficient performance
• Longer lasting tread life

OVERVIEW

The Yokohama 712L is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial vehicles. It was made to be mounted on the vehicle's drive axle.

The tire promotes great all weather traction. The tread's detailed straight and angled siping pattern and the zigzag intermediate groove design work together to enhance the tire's grip on the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather conditions. The circumferential grooves help prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the footprint. This combination enhances the tire's year round driving safety.

The model enhances its durability with the ideal tread design and the reinforced construction. The tread's special funnel-shaped grooves actively avoid stone retention by preventing rocks from drilling into the tire's casing and shortening its service life. The stronger internal structure, on the other hand, maintains the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure affecting the model. This allows the tire to securely carry and withstand heavy loads with ease while the tires are in motion. As the tire does not deform under the pressure, it ensures a secure performing capability.

The tire was manufactured using fuel saving compound. This compound blend improves the rubber flexibility and enhances the traction to ease the driving pressure off the tire during the drive. In this manner, the model lowers its rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the driving pressure affecting the model, that determines the vehicle's needed fuel intake in order to keep the tires in motion. Reducing the rolling resistance decreases the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels, guaranteeing a fuel efficient and environmentally conscious performance.

The 712L offers a longer lasting usability. The durable compound, the wider footprint and the special Stress Control Grooves work together to prevent irregular and accelerated wear formations across the tread area. The compound's wear-resistant rubber materials improve the tire's exceptional tread life by slowing the tread wear rate down. On the other hand, the tread's maintained surface contact ensures even pressure distribution along the tread area, actively preventing irregular wear formations. The Stress Control Grooves further reinforced the equal pressure circulation allowing the tire to enhance the length of the tire's tread life.
