Introduction

Under the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), pneumatic tyres for two and three-wheeled motor vehicles are governed by IS 15627. This standard outlines the specific requirements for the material, design, performance, and durability of tyres used on motorcycles, scooters, and three-wheeled vehicles. The BIS certification ensures that these tyres meet the national safety and quality standards, providing users with products that are reliable and safe to use on the road.

Why is BIS Certification Necessary for Pneumatic Tyres for Two and Three-Wheeled Motor Vehicles?

BIS certification is essential for pneumatic tyres as they directly affect the vehicle's safety, handling, and performance. These tyres must be able to withstand road conditions, support vehicle weight, maintain proper inflation, and resist wear. Certification under IS 15627 ensures that the tyres meet specific quality standards, providing peace of mind for consumers. The ISI mark on tyres confirms that they are reliable, durable, and safe for use in two and three-wheeled motor vehicles.

Overview of Indian Standard IS 15627

Indian Standard IS 15627 specifies the safety and performance requirements for pneumatic tyres used in two and three-wheeled motor vehicles. It covers key factors such as material strength, ensuring tyres are durable and wear-resistant; load and pressure ratings, which define the tyre’s capacity to safely carry vehicle weight and maintain proper inflation; and durability, ensuring tyres can withstand heat, moisture, and UV exposure without degrading. The standard also focuses on grip and traction to enhance vehicle stability and handling, and provides guidelines for tread design to ensure optimal performance on various road surfaces.
