Tyre Retreading Job in Thiruvananthapuram

Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala Full Time Date: 18 May 2024

Job description

Initial Inspection: The worn tire undergoes a thorough inspection to assess its overall condition and suitability for retreading. This includes checking for damage, such as cuts, punctures, and sidewall integrity. Buffing: The old tread is removed from the tire using a buffing machine, which shaves off a thin layer of rubber from the tire's surface. This process prepares the tire for the application of new tread. Repair and Reinforcement: Any damage or imperfections in the tire casing, such as cuts or punctures, are repaired and reinforced to ensure structural integrity and prevent future issues. Application of New Tread: A new layer of tread rubber is applied to the buffed tire casing using specialized machinery and techniques. The new tread is typically made of high-quality rubber compounds designed for durability and traction. Curing: The retreaded tire is placed in a curing chamber, where heat and pressure are applied to bond the new tread to the tire casing. This process vulcanizes the rubber and ensures a strong and durable bond between the tread and casing. Final Inspection: Once the curing process is complete, the retreaded tire undergoes a final inspection to verify the quality of the retreading workmanship and ensure that it meets safety and performance standards. Trimming and Finishing: Any excess rubber is trimmed from the edges of the retreaded tire, and final finishing touches are applied to enhance its appearance and performance. Quality Assurance: Retreaded tires undergo rigorous quality control measures to ensure that they meet industry standards for safety, performance, and reliability. This includes testing for uniformity, balance, and tread depth. Reinstallation: Once the retreaded tire passes inspection, it is ready to be mounted onto a vehicle and put back into service. Retreaded tires can be used on various types of vehicles, including commercial trucks, buses, and passenger cars.
