Type III
tyres
Type III tires are common low-pressure general aviation tires predominantly used on light aircraft with reasonably low landing speeds. These tires are easily identified as they have a small rim diameter in comparison to their width. Type III tires are designated by a two-number system: the first number describes the nominal tire width and the second the diameter of the rim that the tire can be fitted to. The two numbers are separated by a dash.
Type VII
tyres
Type VII tires are high-pressure, high performance tires fitted to jet aircraft. These tires are sized according to a two-number system that differs from the Type III classification described above. Here the first number designates the nominal overall diameter of the tire while the second number, which is separated from the first by a multiplication sign, gives the nominal section width.
Type VIII
tyres
Type VIII tires are designated by three numbers and incorporate the conventions of both the Part III and Part VII tires. The first number specifies the outside diameter, the second is the nominal tire width, and the third is the rim diameter. These tires are designed to operate at high-pressures and high speeds and are the most advanced tires in use on large jet aircraft today.
Ply Rating
for tyres
Ply-rating provides an indication of the relative strength of the tire. The strength of early tires was directly proportional to the number of reinforcing plies present in the design which is how the ply rating system originated. Nowadays, the use of modern materials and complex manufacturing techniques have rendered the actual ply count somewhat irrelevant when discussing to the strength of a tire. However, a ply-rating system (now decoupled from actual ply count) is still used to describe the relative strength of one tire against another and remains an important indicator of tire strength.
