TIRES FOR THE NEW MILITARY TRUCKS, 



' I 'HE new American army will l)c supplied with motor trucks 

 •*■ as rapidly as they are needed, through the development of 

 the government's present plans. Bids have already been asked 

 on order> of from 1,000 to 35,000 trucks of 3- and 5-ton types, 

 known officially as Class "A" and Class *'B," and present esti- 

 mates indicate that they can be secured from the existing manu- 

 facturing plants as fast as they. are required. 



The specifications for these new trucks were formulated by 

 the War Department Motor Transport Board, of which Colonel 

 Chauncey B. Baker, Q. M. C, is the head, in conjunction with 

 several divisions of the Standards Committee of the Society of 

 Automotive Engineers. Standard tire specifications follow : 



CLASS A GASOLINE TRUCK TIRES. 



253. On two-wheel drive trucks the tires shall be 36 by 7-inch 

 single tires on rear wheels, and 36 by 4-inch single tires on front 

 wheels, both front and rear tires demountable. 



254. On four-wheel drive trucks the tires shall be 36 by 6-inch 

 single, demountable, both front and rear. 



255. All tires shall be best quality solid rubber tires on hard 

 rubber base with S. A. E. steel rims. A sample section of the 

 rubber tires and rim must be submitted with each proposal. All 

 tires furnished must be in strict accordance with "Specifications 

 for the Furnishing of Solid Rubber Tires" issued by the Office of 

 the Quariertnaster General. 



CLASS B GASOLINE TRUCK TIRES. 

 On two-wheel drive trucks the tires shall be 36 by 5-inch dual 

 tires, or 36 by 10-inch single tires on rear wheels, and 36 by 

 5-inch single tires on front wheels, both front and rear tires 

 demountable. The 36 by 10-inch single tires are preferred. 

 These tires must be interchangeable with 36 by 5-inch dual 

 equipment. 



S. A. E. TIRE AND RIM DIVISION REPORT. 



'"PRE following important report of the tire and rim division of 

 ^ the Society of Automotive Engineers has been approved by 

 the Standards Committee, and will undoubtedly be adopted by 

 the society. The report recommends that the standard speci- 

 fications for demountable tire and rim equipment and fastenings 

 for the V/2- and 3-ton military trucks, designated as Class A 

 and Class B. respectively, shall be as follows : 



1. Felloe bands and nominal tire diameters are to conform 

 to S. A. E. standard specifications. 



2. A type of tire channel shall be used that will permit of 

 one size of wedge ring being used for both single and dual 

 equipment, regardless of sectional size ; also one standard section 

 of center wedge ring for use between dual tires of all sectional 

 sizes. 



3. Side flanges shall be used, having the S. A. E. standard 

 bolt circles. Flanges shall be provided with bolt-holes in ac-
