Chem-Trend launched the Mono-Lube 2006 for the tire retreading industry. Mono-Lube 2006 is an advanced tire curing envelope treatment that can significantly increase curing envelope life while providing easy release from the cured tire, said the company. Typical life for a tire retread curing envelop is 40 to 60 tires, but the Mono-Lube 2006 can extend that life by 33% to 100%, reducing the number of required envelopes and raw material need while improving operational efficiency, the company said.
