One set of Kenprest compression ?treads has given me an astonishing 50;000 miles, nearly three times the iileage I get from the best make of ow lyre.

T. Davies, Chairman, W. T. Davies Group, Cardiff

"We fitted Kenprest to the near side axles of a Scammell 5-wheeler and got only one puncture per tyre life. On the other side, standard remoulds punctured so often, 'we lost count. So now I'm changing my fleet over completely to Kenprest."

Test engineers using RRL facilities When tested on a motorway type 'urface at the Road Research Laboratory, Kenprest was found to be significantly better for wet road grip compared with the leading make of new tyre. A. Funston, Funston's Transport Services, Royston On our Middle East run, the best result from new tyres is eight journeys, or 50,000 miles, but Kenprests will do 12 journeys, approximately 74,000 miles. I like the economy of Kenprest I like the absence of punctures and complaintsand I particularly like the fact that my drivers praise the way the tyre behaves on wet and dangerous roads "

Rubber & Plastics Research Association

Tests carried out on special size tyres under rigorous scientific control, to simulate full-scale conditions, showed that the Kenprest process, incorporating the compression tread. has a potential mileage advantage -over ordinary retreading processes of about 50% under favourable conditions.
