C ONSIDER now the means by which many Tires
have been given maximum Traction,—i.e., by
means of a “sandpapery” texture in the Rubber
of their Anti-Skid Treads.
Every time the Brakes are put on, to make such Tires
grip the road, the relatively hard, unyielding, and compar
atively brittle, texture of the Rubber in their Treads causes
these Treads to grind away on the pavement, to WEAR
OUT fast at the point of contact.*
The sudden efficiency of their grinding-Traction also
tugs so sharply on the Rubber Adhesive between the
layers of Fabric in Tire as to separate these layers.
There is little “give” to them—just as there is little
"slide” to them.
So, they gain Traction at the expense of Mileage.
Naturally such Tires require a great BULK of such
Rubber in order to deliver reasonable Mileage before worn
out.
And, therein they differ radically from GOODRICH
“Barefoot” Tires.
^Because,—the Safety-Tread on Goodrich Tires is made
of “Barefoot-Rubber,” a new, and exclusive compound
which discards unnecessary whitish “frictional” ingredi
ents that are heaviest and inert, as proved by their
lighter weight
H ERE is how it acts in Automobiling,—
—When the weight of the Car bears on
this clinging “Barefoot-Rubber” Tread, and
the power is applied to go ahead or reverse, the wonderful
stretch in the “Barefoot” Rubber Sole (or Tread) of the
Goodrich Tire acts as a sort of Lubricant between the
Fabric Structure of the Tire and the Road.
Then, the Bare/oot-Rubber “Toes,” of the Goodrich
Safety-Tread Tire, CLING to the pavement (instead of
grinding against it,), in such manner as your Bare Foot
would cling to a slippery surface—without Grind, and so,
with the minimum of Frictional Heat or Wear for maxi
mum Traction.
Goodrich “Barefoot-Rubber” is now made into Goodrich
FABRIC Tires,—Goodrich Silvertown Cord Tires,—Good
rich Inner Tubes,—Goodrich Truck Tires,—Goodrich Motor
Cycle, and Bicycle, Tires, as well as into Goodrich Rub
ber Boots, Over-Shoes, Soles and Heels.
Get a Sliver of it from your nearest Goodrich Branch,
or Dealer. Stretch it thousands of times, but break it you
can’t.
That’s the Stuff that GOODRICH Black-Tread Tires
are made of.
