... Step 1: The tread area
Product story_HSC1
Step 1: The tread area
The toughness of the new on-/off-road compound
means increased resistance to cuts, chips and chunks reduces the number, and most importantly the
depth of any cuts and tears improves protection of the casing by keeping
damage superficial
results in substantially higher mileage, thanks to its great durability.

The new compound
Compared to conventional short polymer chains, long polymer chains prevent deep tears.

Step 2: The belt layer & beadThe new products
Product story_HSC1
Step 2: The belt layer & bead
The four-ply belt with a reinforced second and third belt layer withstands highly concentrated pressure prevents fatigue fractures means enhanced traction characteristics through the stiffness of the overall structure
Technologically advanced bead core design for structural durability and extended product life
Tear-resistant compound at steel cord edgesIncreased chafer cord density by 18%Optimized chafer angle for improved stiffness across body plyExtruded sidewall, turn-up cover and rim strip
protects the casing effectively and offers best retreadability.
The new products
Product story_HSC1
The improved second and third belt plies
Specially twisted cables, embedded in an extremely tear-proof mixture isolate individual tears and reliably hinder foreign bodies from penetrating.

Step 3: The tread patternsThe new products
Product story_HSC1
Step 3: The tread patterns
Greater depth, more volume and an optimized for use design result in considerably higher mileage with even
wear ensure reliable grip and good handling both on
and off the road improve the tire’s self-cleaning
characteristics and improves stone-rejection
combine high mileage with significant traction and optimum road suitability, whatever the weather conditions.

Step 4: The contourThe new products
Product story_HSC1
Step 4: The contour
The contour with its steeper sidewalls is dimensionally more stable and
provides greater resistance to deformation caused by radial forces minimises compression of the sidewalls, even
with heavier loads counteracts premature material fatigue
means greater load-carrying capacity and improved retreadability.

“In one of our divisions out West we had a lot of problems with rock drilling caused by the tire holding rocks. We started buying Continental products 8 months ago and these problems have almost completely went away. I would highly recommend Continental tires.“

Curt Wiklund, OwnerWiklunds Åkeri AB, Kalhäll/Sweden
“With competitor tires fitted, we used to have up to 3–4 punctures a month. This has improved significantly with Continental’s very durable HSC1/HDC1 tires. With them, we save time and money.”

Lauren Jongetjes, Fleet Tire Manager
Superior Ready Mix, California, USA
“Almost every tire on our bottom-dump trailer tires eventually has to be scrapped. With Continental, this has not been an issue. Nobody else in the market had anything that fits the description of what we needed, which was a tire that provides weight savings but also fits our application. All the way around, stones are less of a problem with Continental. It’s nice to see that they came out with another tire that is a good fit for our application.”
