In the 70's, I used to retread tires daily, mostly for passenger tires. After buffing BY HAND using a basic template, the carcass was sprayed with adhesive also by hand. The machine I used to apply fresh rubber was called an ORBITREAD. No splices involved, a continuous ribbon of fresh rubber. Loaded by hand into the mold by hand, bag inserted and internal rim by hand. After the cure was completed, I inspected by hand, trimmed by hand and finished by hand. whitewalls were buffed and sprayed with the familiar blue coating. At this priod in time I was listed in the nation as an official certified retreader. My failure rate was .05 of 1%. well above national acceptance level. Just one more thing I did in my life and strived to exceed at.
Thank you for this informatically interesting video Recycling Tiers is very important industry .really i enjoy watching this video because it increased my knowledges
Retreads are not a good idea for road trucks and trailers of all sizes. Ok for storage trailers, but that's it. Any tire that has had a flat repair done should never be capped. But shady dealers will do it to make a buck. Retreads are Not fuel efficient by any means. Now you have even more rolling resistance, from the casing, new tread, and glue holding them together. Wich in turn makes tire run hotter than a virgin tire would. Retreads may be cheap to buy, but when they explode from casing failure, they do so much damage to the vehicle, it is always cheaper in the long run to buy a virgin tire.
And now folks you know those huge strips of tire/rubber on the interstate that rips your fender off when you can’t avoid them……THIS IS WHERE THEY COME FROM !!! I drive a semi and I refuse to run recaps on my truck and trailer, yes they are half the price of new tires but they only last half as long as new tires and they ALWAYS fail while on the road and the roadside repair is EXPENSIVE therefore I will run new tires and leave the recaps for the farmers to run in their fields
No way would i risk my life running them on my trucks drive wheels. I only run retreads on my trailers if i dont have any other choice. If you drive around australia and you see shreads of truck tyres, those are mainlythe remains of blown out trailer reatreaded tyres.
I don't think they would be allowed on steering tires that would be insane they must be getting better at it I don't see as many treads laying on the side of the road

12:00 please ignore this channel's explanation of retread tire procedures, as its heat that bonds everything together, not adhesive...!
Interesting! Thanks❤
Thanks for watching!
@ 24:00 it looks like there's a wobble in that spinning drum.

Treading lightly here; even though my carcass is “tyred,” I’m bonded to give a spin with a belt; otherwise Why Are We Wire?”
Birthplace of highway dead gators.
