Gross Axle Weight Rating
The maximum weight that any axle can support, as pub-
lished on the Certification / VIN label on the front left side
of the trailer. Actual weight determined by weighing each
axle on a public scale, with the trailer attached to the tow-
ing vehicle.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
The maximum weight of the fully loaded trailer, as pub-
lished on the Certification / VIN label. Actual weight deter-
mined by weighing trailer on a public scale, without being
attached to the towing vehicle.
Hitch Weight
The downward force exerted on the hitch ball by the trailer
coupler.
Inner-Liner
The layer(s) forming the inside surface of a tubeless tire
that contains the inflating medium within the tire.
Inner-Liner Separation
The parting of the inner-liner from cord material in the car-
cass.
Intended Outboard Sidewall
The sidewall that contains a white-wall, bears white letter-
ing or bears manufacturer, brand, and/or model name
molding that is higher or deeper than the same molding
on the other sidewall of the tire or the outward facing side-
wall of an asymmetrical tire that has a particular side that
must always face outward when mounted on a vehicle.
Light Truck (LT) Tire
A tire designated by its manufacturer as primarily intended
for use on lightweight trucks or multipurpose passenger
vehicles.
Load Rating
The maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given
inflation pressure.
Maximum Load Rating
The load rating for a tire at the maximum permissible infla-
tion pressure for that tire.
Maximum Permissible Inflation Pressure
The maximum cold inflation pressure to which a tire may
be inflated.
Maximum Loaded Vehicle Weight
The sum of curb weight, accessory weight, vehicle capac-
ity weight, and production options weight.
Measuring Rim
The rim on which a tire is fitted for physical dimension
requirements.
Pin Weight
The downward force applied to the 5th wheel or goose-
neck ball, by the trailer kingpin or gooseneck coupler.
Non-Pneumatic Rim
A mechanical device which, when a non-pneumatic tire
assembly incorporates a wheel, supports the tire, and
attaches, either integrally or separably, to the wheel center
member and upon which the tire is attached.
Non-Pneumatic Spare Tire Assembly
A non-pneumatic tire assembly intended for temporary
use in place of one of the pneumatic tires and rims that
are fitted to a passenger car in compliance with the
requirements of this standard.
Non-Pneumatic Tire
A mechanical device which transmits, either directly or
through a wheel or wheel center member, the vertical load
and tractive forces from the roadway to the vehicle, gener-
ates the tractive forces that provide the directional control
of the vehicle and does not rely on the containment of any
gas or fluid for providing those functions.
Non-Pneumatic Tire Assembly
A non-pneumatic tire, alone or in combination with a
wheel or wheel center member, which can be mounted on
a vehicle.
Normal Occupant Weight
This means 68 kilograms (150 lbs.) times the number of
occupants specified in the second column of Table I of 49
CFR 571.110.
Occupant Distribution
The distribution of occupants in a vehicle as specified in
the third column of Table I of 49 CFR 571.110.
Open Splice
Any parting at any junction of tread, sidewall, or innerliner
that extends to cord material.
Outer Diameter
The overall diameter of an inflated new tire.
Overall Width
The linear distance between the exteriors of the sidewalls
of an inflated tire, including elevations due to labeling,
decorations, or protective bands or ribs.
Ply
A layer of rubber-coated parallel cords.
Ply Separation
A parting of rubber compound between adjacent plies.
Pneumatic Tire
A mechanical device made of rubber, chemicals, fabric
and steel or other materials, that, when mounted on an
automotive wheel, provides the traction and contains the
gas or fluid that sustains the load.
Production Options Weight
The combined weight of those installed regular produc-
tion options weighing over 2.3 kilograms (5 lbs.) in excess
of those standard items which they replace, not previously
considered in curb weight or accessory weight, including
