Tire rasp blade and method of use

摘要

In an arrangement of rasp blades on a tire buffing machine, adjacent rasp blades in a stack of blades are mounted to the rasp hub. The blades are placed in alternating relations such that the teeth on one blade are staggered relative to the teeth on adjacent blades to increase blade life and to improve the texture of buffed tire casings and, thus, the quality of the bond between the casing and the new tread.
