a technological leader For More than a century

Michelin® nZg technology: the right tire changes everythingtM

NZG stands for Near Zero Growth because it virtually eliminates casing growth in properly

inflated tires. Developed in 1999 and under continuous improvement since, MICHELIN® NZG

Technology represents an unrivalled technological breakthrough in radial aircraft tire design.

The most important thing you can do to maximize the lifespan of your tires is to keep

them properly inflated. Proper inflation helps:

Remember, operating below nominal inflation pressure can cause an aircraft tire to over-deflect. Under-inflation increases the flex of the tire which could result in overheating, abnormal tire wear, shortened tire life and possible tire failure.

protect tires in storage to avoid ozone impact in grooves and on sidewalls.

slow down before turning and increase turn radius when possible. if operating

procedures permit, use thrust reversers to slow the aircraft on landing rather

than brakes.
