Studded tire
Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-005731
A type of winter tire equipped with small metal or ceramic studs embedded in the tread, designed to enhance traction on ice and packed snow. The studs protrude slightly from the tire surface, digging into slippery surfaces for improved grip. Many jurisdictions restrict the use of studded tires to specific winter months due to potential road damage.
