Description
The Hankook K127 Ventus S1 evo3 (*) RUNFLAT is an ultra-high-performance tyre designed for premium vehicles, offering superior handling, safety, and comfort in both wet and dry conditions. Key features include a special HSSC silica tread compound for enhanced performance and mileage, an Aramid Hybrid Belt for increased strength and stability, an interlocking groove design for hydroplaning resistance and wet grip, and a highly stiff outside shoulder for stable road contact and handling. The run-flat technology, known as Hankook Runflat System (HRS), allows the tyre to sustain driving for a limited distance after a puncture by using a three-partitioned rubber layer structure for shock absorption, continuity, and heat resistance.
Key Features and Technologies
- HSSC (Highly Enriched Synthetic Silica Compound):A specialized tread compound that improves wet braking performance and reduces rolling resistance, while also enhancing mileage and driving performance.
- This high-strength belt reinforces the tyre, providing enhanced durability and stability, especially at high speeds and during acceleration.
- These grooves help to improve wet grip, reduce the risk of hydroplaning, and enhance stability during cornering in wet conditions.
- Highly Stiff Outside Shoulder:Expanded outer shoulder blocks maintain a stable and flat contact surface with the road, securing maximum steering grip and improving dry handling.
- Integrated run-flat technology that provides safety and continuity of driving in the event of a puncture.
- This design improves hydroplaning resistance and wet braking performance, while also optimizing steering grip and reducing noise.
Performance Benefits
- Superior Wet and Dry Handling:The tyre’s advanced design and materials provide excellent grip and control in varying conditions.
- High-Speed Stability:The reinforced construction allows for stable and predictable handling during high-speed driving.
- Comfort and Safety:Engineered for a smooth ride with enhanced noise reduction and safety features like hydroplaning resistance.
- Increased Durability:Features like the Aramid Hybrid Belt and specialized compounds contribute to increased tyre strength and longer lifespan.
