Fulda Kristall Control HP Passenger Winter Tire
Fulda Kristall Control HP is a high-quality non-studded winter tire for a wide range of medium-duty and powerful passenger cars. The tire belongs to the company’s High Performance lineup and benefits from a number of its innovative technologies to deliver reliable performance and comfortable handling.
The tire is designed for most severe wintertime conditions. Its compound is molded into directional tread pattern with a solid central rib and wide shoulder areas. The tread picture includes extra deep grooves with excellent self-cleaning ability to ensure reliable traction on snow-covered roads. The tire is also protected from skidding on slippery surfaces thanks to numerous sipes with sharp biting edges.
Fulda Kristall Control HP is equipped with the company’s Snow Catcher technology that helps the grooves contract to catch snow in the footprint area, which enhances traction on both loose and compact snow hence improving the tire’s performance in wintertime.
The tire was compounded with the help of silica and functional polymers that were included into the structure of its rubber compound to ensure the tire’s softness under sub-freezing temperature as well as provides for its resilience for optimal traction on ice and in the wet.
Fulda Kristall Control HP features a durable casing, which helps it endure significant loads without any deformation as well as safeguards the tire from mechanical damage. The tire is available with H and V speed rating.
Fulda Carat Extremo Passenger Summer Tire
Fulda Carat Extremo is a passenger tire with summertime operation. It delivers high-quality traction on wet pavement and great acoustic comfort coupled with long life span and reliable driver-wheel feedback.
The tire compound is molded into directional tread picture with a lot of directional drainage grooves that instantly evacuate water from under the contact patch area and in this way prevent from hydroplaning in foul weather. At the same time, the groove design promotes long wear.
The tire tread is optimized towards reliable speeding up and braking performance while its contour ensures stable driving over water film as well as excellent wear resistance. There’re non-symmetric curved grooves on the tire’s shoulders that create a great number of sharp biting edges to ensure a short braking distance on slippery surfaces.
There’re stiff longitudinal ribs in the central tread area, which helps cancel sound waves and minimize noise the tire generate on the road. Furthermore, wide shoulder blocks improve driving stability and road-wheel contact.
Fulda Carat Extremo belongs to an ultra-high performance segment and comes with W & Y speed ratings. It is an excellent choice for powerful passenger cars, high-speed sedans and coups.
Fulda Kristall Montero 3 Passenger Winter Tire
Fulda Kristall Montero 3 is a non-studded wither tire for passenger cars. The tire is the third model from the line up and features an optimized tread picture, a reinforced casing and revised rubber compound. It combines the best technologies of its predecessors and is designed to outperform them in a number of respects.
The tire’s tread picture is created with the help of the Snow Catcher technology, which presupposes numerous sipes that grip snow and enhance traction and handling on snow-covered roads. There you can see a central rib to improve course-keeping ability while the number of drainage grooves was increased to ensure better hydroplaning resistance. The grooves excellently cut water film and evacuate water and slush from under the footprint area.
The new Bubble-Blade rubber compound was worked out specially for sub-freezing temperatures and makes tread blocks stiff enough for driving on both dry and wet road surfaces as well as for compact and loose snow.
Fulda Kristall Montero 3 features a reinforced casing that significantly enhances the tire durability as well as prolongs the tire’s life span.
The tire was testes by the ADAC auto club and got a “Highly Recommended” mark thanks to its balanced features, great fuel-efficiency and totally predictable performance on various types of wintertime road surfaces.
Fulda EcoControl HP Summer Tire for Passenger Cars
Although the year has been just started, Fulda is looking forward to the summer season and starts the promotion of its new EcoControl HP passenger tire model. It has been tested by TUV SUD Automotive independent expert and shows effective wet and dry braking coupled with low rolling resistance.
The tire delivers both reliable handling as well as great fuel efficiency. It features twin ribs in shoulder areas to ensure a firm road-wheel contact during braking thus reducing braking distance in the dry by 5 per cent.
The tire’s made from silica-based rubber compound to enhance wet traction while AquaFlow drainage grooves instantly cut water film and evacuate water from under the contact patch area. As a result, braking distance in the wet was reduced by 9 per cent.
Fulda equipped the tire with its Engineered Compound Technology and EcoTread lowers rolling resistance by 9 per cent.
Fulda EcoControl HP was made from special nano-compound that joins key elements into a thick network on a micro level, which helps prolong mileage while silica elements improve traction and safety. At the same time, even load distribution over the footprint makes running smooth and comfortable.
The tire was designed specially for rainy summers and performs reliable in changeable weather. It is available in 22 sizes with 15- and 16-inch rim diameters.
