Brakes
get hot...
...otherwise they wouldn't work.
But when brakes get too hot bad things happen. For every hundred
degrees above their normal operating range brake wear doubles.
Extended high heat conducts to the wheel and destroys the bead of the
tire. Damaged tire beads mean tires that are in danger of blowing
and that are not able to be retreaded.
DrumTurbines blow out the
heat...
...reducing the temperature of the drum
and lowering the temperature of the wheel. They do this by utilizing
a series of louvers that transforms the movement of the wheel into a force
for heat dissipation. In real world testing DrumTurbines have been
shown to lower wheel temperatures by up to
20% or 70 degrees.
Cooler brakes are better
for...
...maintenance, the environment, safety
and the bottom line. Longer brake life and fewer blown tires mean
longer maintenance intervals. Retreaded tires reduce tire waste and
tire cost. Cooler brakes are less affected by brake fade, decreasing
stopping distances.
