Himalaya ICEO equipment

The Federal Himalaya ICEO Scandinavian or soft compound winter tyre features a unique symmetrical tread pattern. This design was chosen to improve tyre performance in harsh winter conditions while also reducing the risk of aquaplaning. The S-shaped elements incorporated in the tread improve performance even in deep snow.

The massive, symmetrically spaced tread blocks are "armed" with thousands of tiny sipes or sipes. Like studs, they cut into ice and packed snow with sharp edges, significantly improving grip on slippery surfaces.

The ultra-soft tread is made from an elastomer-rich rubber compound. These chemical elements help the tyre to remain flexible even at very low temperatures. It is worth mentioning that a flexible tyre grips the road much better and also wears more evenly.
