Double wheels distribute the load more evenly, allowing for increased weight distribution and preventing overloading of individual wheels. This is particularly important for heavy vehicles that carry significant payloads.
Enhanced Traction and Stability:
Double wheels provide better traction and stability, particularly on uneven or slippery surfaces. By increasing the contact area between the tires and the road, double wheels improve grip and reduce the chances of skidding or losing control, especially when carrying heavy loads.
Reduced Wear and Tear:
Spreading the load over multiple wheels reduces the stress on individual tires, leading to reduced wear and tear. This extends the lifespan of the tires and minimizes maintenance costs.
Improved Braking Performance:
Double wheels provide enhanced braking performance by increasing the friction surface. When brakes are applied, the additional surface area of the tires ensures better grip and shorter stopping distances.
Increased Redundancy:
Double wheels offer redundancy, as the vehicle can continue to operate even if one tire fails. This reduces the risk of breakdowns and accidents, ensuring safer and more reliable journeys, particularly for long-haul trucks and buses.
