ADDITIONAL CURING BLADDER SIZES ON SHOW
Continental - Tire Technology Expo Stand 4008

Visitors interested in the latest curing bladder technology can head to Continental’s stand. The company has recently expanded the size range of its bladders for UHP tires. These can be ordered to fit all common press types with foot diameters to meet any clamp design criteria.

The UHP curing bladder line incorporates the latest technology in bladder contour, compound and surface treatment to provide a product that is designed specifically to fit the low profile shape of ultra-high performance tires.

The bladder design group has used FEM techniques to create a curing bladder profile that is optimized to match the relatively square shoulder contour of a UHP tire. This minimizes the problem of air trapped between the tire and the curing bladder during the initial shaping of the tire in the curing press.
