Bridgestone BT-010

Bridgestone BT-010 - More grip without the loss of handling; the new Battlax BT-010 is Bridgestone's answer to this perpetual challenge.
Designed with the latest tyre developing technologies, Battlax BT010 leads the next generation Battlax line by pushing the perimeter of performance criterion - grip, handling, high-speed stability, wet performance, and balance. BT-010: the new standard for 21st century.
In the new Battlax range, CTDM maximizes the horizontal stiffness, and MSB secures vertical cushion.

MS BELT - Underpinning this improvement is the use of a steel Mono Spiral Belt (MSB) construction, with a continuous single cord wrapped around the circumference of the tyre in order to eliminate seams, joints and the overlapping of belts.
While MSB is lighter than a conventional multi-cross belt, it provides greater stability by minimising internal heat generation.
Bridgestone is the first manufacturer to employ five single steel filaments in an MSB cord. The filaments are separated from one another and twisted in a rubber coating that ensures equal and constant tension. Known as ‘High Tensile Super Penetrated Cord' (HTSPC), this technology produces high stiffness combined with flexibility and excellent shock absorption.

TECHNICAL INDEX 

Compound - Developed for BT-010, the new Silica compound of BT-010 provides improved and exceptional grip level on both dry and wet surface without sacrificing high-speed durability.

Profile - The optimised BT-010 profile offers maximum and constant contact pressure at all lean angles, thereby improving both grip and handling. This was only possible with the complex optimisation of the 3D-CTDM program, perhaps the most advanced and complex computer program used today. After a dynamic three-dimensional analysis, the 3D CTDM maximises lateral stiffness (grip) and maintains uniform contact pressure at all camber angles (neutral handling).

Construction - Kevlar Mono Spiral Belt construction in rear tyres for shock absorption and high-speed stability

Pattern - The front tread pattern has been developed utilising another of
Bridgestone's advanced digital technology programs: a hydro-planing simulation program. All grooves are designed to dispel water in the most efficient manner.
The front tyre "blocks" form unbroken and continuous contact with the surface. Together with the 3D-CTDM designed profile, this unique front pattern solves handling or grip problems.
The aggressive rear pattern offers traction in corners. The main diagonal groove gives optimum rigidity and efficient heat emission, for better high-speed durability.
