STEELASTIC® Aircraft Tire Systems
Manufactured in a highly regulated industry, aircraft tires require consistent quality and unmatched precision — two areas where Steelastic excels. Our calendarless tire component preparation systems can be used in the production of general aviation tires, commercial aircraft tires and military aircraft tires.
Our proven, extrusion-based process allows you to produce a very thin gauge with more precision and consistency than a traditional calender, so you can manufacture a low-weight aircraft tire without sacrificing performance. Our unique, combination systems share common creel and extrusion processes to produce multiple product codes using one system.
Beyond our tire component preparation equipment, tire manufacturers also lean on Steelastic’s years of experience and expertise, as they undergo the aircraft manufacturing certification and approval process. Contact us to learn more or request a quote.
