Kenda Tire is sponsoring an educational session on tire and wheel construction and fundamentals during the 2022 National Association of Trailer Manufacturers Convention and Trade Show, which takes place this week in Florida.
The presentation will provide information on trailer tire anatomy and rubber compounds, tips on reading a sidewall, proper tire inflation, storage, wheel types and uses.
The talk will be given by Al Henderson, a senior engineer at Kenda’s American Technology Center and the lead engineer for all trailer tire development and testing. Henderson joined Kenda in 2015 and has designed the Kenda Klever R/T light truck tire, which is Kenda’s highest-rated and most reviewed automotive tire, and the Kenda Nevegal 2 bicycle tire. He also serves as a committee member of the Tire and Rim Association and the National Association of Trailer Manufacturers.
Henderson’s talk will take place at 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 1, at the Tampa Convention Center, site of the show.
The trade show itself runs through Thursday.
