Chunking -
The breaking away of pieces of the tread or sidewall.
Cold inflation pressure -
The pressure in the tire before you drive.
Cord -
The strands forming the plies in the tire.
Cord separation -
The parting of cords from adjacent rubber compounds.
Cracking -
Any parting within the tread, sidewall, or inner liner of the tire extending to cord material.
CT -
A pneumatic tire with an inverted flange tire and rim system in which the rim is designed with rim
flanges pointed radially inward and the tire is designed to fit on the underside of the rim in a manner that
encloses the rim flanges inside the air cavity of the tire.
Curb weight -
The weight of a motor vehicle with standard equipment including the maximum capacity
of fuel, oil, and coolant, and, if so equipped, air conditioning and additional weight optional engine.
Extra load tire -
A tire designed to operate at higher loads and at higher inflation pressures than the
corresponding standard tire.
Groove -
The space between two adjacent tread ribs.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) -
The maximum permissible weight of this fully loaded travel
trailer.
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) -
The value specified as the load carrying capacity of a single axle
system, as measured at the tire-ground interfaces.
Hitch Weight -
The vertical trailer load supported by the hitch ball.
Inner liner -
The layer(s) forming the inside surface of a tubeless tire that contains the inflating medium
within the tire.
Inner liner separation -
The parting of the inner liner from cord material in the carcass.
Intended outboard sidewall -
The sidewall that contains a white-wall bears white lettering or bears
manufacturer, brand, and/or model name molding that is higher or deeper than the same molding on the
other sidewall of the tire or the outward facing sidewall of an asymmetrical tire that has a particular side
that must always face outward when mounted on a vehicle.
Light truck (LT) tire -
A tire designated by its manufacturer as primarily intended for use on lightweight
trucks or multipurpose passenger vehicles.
Load rating -
The maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given inflation pressure.
Maximum load rating -
The load rating for a tire at the maximum permissible inflation pressure for that
tire.
Maximum permissible inflation pressure -
The maximum cold inflation pressure to which a tire may be
inflated.
Maximum loaded vehicle weight -
The sum of curb weight, accessory weight, vehicle capacity weight,
and production options weight.
Measuring rim -
The rim on which a tire is fitted for physical dimension requirements.
Non-pneumatic rim -
A mechanical device which, when a non-pneumatic tire assembly incorporates a
wheel, supports the tire, and attaches, either integrally or separably, to the wheel center member and upon
which the tire is attached.
Non-pneumatic spare tire assembly -
A non-pneumatic tire assembly intended for temporary use in
place of one of the pneumatic tires and rims that are fitted to a passenger car in compliance with the
requirements of this standard.
Non-pneumatic tire -
A mechanical device which transmits, either directly or through a wheel or wheel
center member, the vertical load and tractive forces from the roadway to the vehicle, generates the tractive
forces that provide the directional control of the vehicle and does not rely on the containment of any gas
or fluid for providing those functions.
Non-pneumatic tire assembly -
A non-pneumatic tire, alone or in combination with a wheel or wheel
center member, which can be mounted on a vehicle.
Normal occupant weight -
This means 68 kilograms (150 lbs.) times the number of occupants specified
in the second column of Table I of 49 CFR 571.110.
Occupant distribution -
The distribution of occupants in a vehicle as specified in the third column of
Table I of 49 CFR 571.110.
Open splice -
Any parting at any junction of tread, sidewall, or inner liner that extends to cord material.
Outer diameter -
The overall diameter of an inflated new tire.
