83.160.01 - Tyres in general

This document specifies a method for the determination of low specific surface area of powders ELTs rubber by measuring the amount of physically adsorbed krypton gas and applying the theoretical multipoint Brunnauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) method.
This document defines a specific method for powders taking into account that, in order to obtain an accurate value of specific surface area, a representative sample of the material to be tested is taken according to the principle that every particle ...view more

This document provides criteria for the sorting of whole end-of-life tyres (WELT) into different classes based on categories. It also provides criteria for the determination of their suitability to be used in recycling and material recovery processes.
The processes described in this document include sorting WELTs in order to determine their acceptance in recovery and recycling processes.
Criteria regarding the reuse of tyres to be mounted again in a vehicle are not addressed in this document.

The purpose of this Technical Report is to provide a review of the studies that were performed on odour of ELT granulates

The purpose of this Technical Report is to provide information about a procedure based on the determination of a visual index correlated with the content of textile fibers, free and bounded to the rubber, of granulates. This approach is currently used by Spanish grinders in order to control the efficiency of their processes and is effective for granulates with particle sizes whose bottom limit is higher than 0,5 mm and upper limit lower than 10 mm.

This document specifies RFID tyre tag classification of the different technologies (embedding, patching, sticking) to benefit the user's understanding of their differences, targets, possible applications as well as their limitations. This document includes: — generic description of the main features for each technology; — marking recommendation. This document excludes: — references to items related to tyre quality and the testing thereof; — detailed references to embedded locations; — detailed r...view more

This document defines the test methods for validating the conformance of RFID enabled tyres with the minimum reading distance specifications given in ISO 20909. The two presented methodologies give comparable test results only when the same radio frequency and energy power parameters are used. Unless otherwise specified, the tests in this document are to be applied exclusively to a standalone RFID enabled tyre. This document is not intended to set any requirement on mass production quality contr...view more

This document defines the essential dimensions and the designation of tube valves and tubeless valves. Annex B gives the correspondence between ISO designations and the designations established by: — TRA (Tire and Rim Association Inc.); — ETRTO (European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation); — JATMA (The Japan Automotive Tyre Manufacturer's Association, Inc.). In the remainder of this document, all the dimensions are given at their nominal value except in cases where the tolerances are indicated...view more

This document specifies test methods for TPMS snap-in tubeless valves. These methods are defined to determine the minimum level of performances requested.

This document specifies the terms and definitions, general requirements and data structure for coding radio frequency identification (RFID) tyre tags.

This document specifies requirements for using an RFID tag to individually identify a tyre. Three RFID tyre tag technologies are considered in this document: embedded, patch, sticker. Tyre tags can be used for all tyre categories.

This document provides two different methods for the quantitative estimation of non-metallic content remaining adhered to the steel wire obtained from the recovery of materials from end-of-life tyres.
The pyrolysis method is considered as the reference method while the hydrostatic method is considered as an in-situ method.
This European Standard includes sample collection and the preparation of representative samples based on a sampling plan for the purpose of their characterization.
