  • What You Need to Know About Mounting Radial Tires on Classic Vehicle Rims
    What You Need to Know About Mounting Radial Tires on Classic Vehicle Rims Over the past 100 years, tires, and the wheels that support them, have gone through significant changes as a result of technical innovations in design, technology and materials. No single factor affects the handling and safety of a car’s ride more than the tire and the wheel it is mounted on and how the two work together as a unit. One nagging question that has been the subject of a lot of anecdotal evidence, speculation, and even more widespread rumor is whether rims designed for Bias ply tires can handle the stresses placed on them by Radial ply tires. And the answer is - it depends. It depends on how the rim was originally designed and built as well as whether the rim has few enough cycles on it, and how it has been driven. But most importantly it depends upon the construction of the tire and how it transmits the vehicle's load to where the rubber meets the road. In this paper, we want to educate you on the facts - not the wives tales or just plain bad information - about how Bias and Radial tires differ in working with the rim to provide a safe ride. Why is there a possible rim concern between Radial and Bias Tires? The fitting of radial tires, to wheels and rims originally designed for bias tires, is an application that may result in rim durability issues. Even same-sized bias and radial tires stress a rim differently, despite their nearly identical dimensions.

  • Standards and Requirements for Scrap Tire Transporters
    Division of Materials and Waste Management December 2018 Guidance Document #640 Standards and Requirements for Scrap Tire Transporters Purpose This educational guideline addresses owner and operator responsibilities when registering and operating a scrap tire transportation business which either picks up tires in Ohio or delivers tires to an Ohio destination and is intended to guide readers through some of the major requirements of the scrap tire rules. However, it is only a guide and the appropriate sections of the Ohio Administrative Code should be read in their entirety. Applicable Rules and Statutes Ohio Revised Code 3734 Ohio Administrative Code 3745-27-54 through 3745-27-56 Who must register? Chapter 3734.83 of the Ohio Revised Code states that “….no person shall transport scrap tires anywhere in this state unless the business or governmental entity that employs the person first registers with and obtains a registration certificate from the director of environmental protection.” It should be noted that there are several exclusions from the requirement to become a registered scrap tire transporter which are outlined below. However, if a transporter does not meet one of the specific exclusions provided below, then registration with Ohio EPA is required. The requirement to become a registered scrap tire transporter is not required if any of the following apply: 1. If 10 or less scrap tires are transported per load; 2. If tires are transported only for the transporter’s own agricultural use or in producing or processing aggregates; 3. If the transporter is a solid waste hauler who transports 10 or fewer tires which are incidental to the solid waste load; 4.

  • FOR SCRAP TIRE RECYCLING FACILITIES PREAMBLE State Andfederallaws Andregulations
    FIRE SAFETY PRACTICES FOR SCRAP TIRE RECYCLING FACILITIES PREAMBLE The Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) encourages tire recyclers to operate their facilities safely and has developed this document to help them do so. Not every section of this document will apply to every scrap tire recycling facility as each facility is unique in its design, layout, operation and target markets. Readers should review this document in its entirety in order to determine which sections apply to them. The document looks at each phase of a typical tire recycling facility and makes suggestions regarding proper practices and procedures associated with that particular phase of the recycling process. ISRI encourages all tire recyclers to consult with their local, state, and/or federal authorities as appropriate regarding regulations they are required to conform to. This document is not intended to be legal advice. Each company should consult its own counsel to be certain that its operations comply with relevant local, state and federal laws and regulations.
