Tire
Take to the road
GO FASTER: STREAMLINED MANUFACTURING, LESS WASTE, BETTER PERFORMANCE.
Tire manufacturers have been turning to Milliken not only for tire component products, but also for help in making their operations more efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable. Our product range is broad: MilliCapTM ready-to-use high modulus cap ply strips. Bead wrap, chafer, chipper, and flipper fabrics. Process liners of all types — rigid or flexible, coated or uncoated. Treated bi-elastic fabrics to extend the life of turn-up bladders for tire-building machines. Treated single-end cord for cap ply and other single-end applications. Our products allow manufacturers to reduce steps in the process, save time and money, and decrease inventory, waste, and scrap. And after the tire is complete? Performance is enhanced, weight is saved, and rolling resistance improved.
Tire
Wide-ranging performance-engineered tire components and processing aids for every application.
Chafer
Milliken’s splice-free, ready-to-use chafer can be used alone or in conjunction with a gum strip. Lighter in weight than many conventional chafers, fabric yarns are knit into a bias configuration for excellent conformability.
MilliCap®
MilliCap® cap ply strips are precision-slit and ready-to-use. MilliCap does not require calendering, delivering substantial cost savings in the tire manufacturing process and reduce rubber weight in the tire for better on-road performance.
Bead Wrap
Milliken offers knitted and woven bead wrap in a range of fabric weights and tack levels. It does not require calendering. RFL treatments provide excellent adhesion, and our tackifier chemistry is 100% solvent free.
Processing Aid
Designed for easy release and superior resistance to wrinkles, Milliken tire process liners are durable and cost-effective. Available cross-rigid or flexible, coated or uncoated, with strong, durable selvages.
READY TO USE
Eliminate preparatory steps. RTUs go straight to tire building — no rubber mixing, no calendering. You’ll use less rubber and less energy. Without the need for internal processing, there won’t be scrap or waste.
