Louise RC MFT ST
Due to the extreme loads during driving, cornering and high jumps, the design of the wheel and the materials used are extremely important. The proper flexibility and strength allow the Louise RC wheels to withstand these heavy forces.
The Louise RC wheels are made of a mixture of high quality nylon granulates, charged with fiber or without. These composites have been specially developed by Dupont for Louise RC.
The stadium truck tyres are about 20mm more narrow than the Monster truck tyres. The outer diameter is similar. The stadium truck tyres have the advantage to be lighter and to reduce the load on the transmission as well as on the suspension.

Tyre inserts
The tyres are mounted either with special preformed foam inserts or with cut-to-size foam inserts. The inserts are selected in a specific density and size in order to guarantee perfect dampening and form stability of the tyre.
Mounted - Glued
Due to the extreme forces the tyre must firmly bonded to the wheel. Louise RC takes the highest care in bonding the tyres properly. For years they have been searching to find the best way to glue the tyres well but also in a clean way. Today Louise RC is considered one of the best in the RC industry. The tyres are glued with a special rubber cyanoacrylate glue. This glue has been specially developed for Louise RC to guarantee a perfect firm bond to withstand all extreme forces.
The following steps are performed in production at Louise RC in order to obtain a perfect bond
- The rings of the rubber tyre to be glued are slightly grinded and degreased.
- The surface of the wheel where the tyre will be glued is grinded up and degreased.
- The tyre is bonded to the wheel with cyanoacrylate adhesive using a special dosing machine. As a result, the equal amount of glue is always applied.
- The bonded tyre is pressed for a specific time in order to ensure perfect bonding and curing.
- Each tyre passes a spinning and pulling test to ensure perfect bonding.
MFT Technology
MFT stands for Micro Fiber Technology. This technology indicates the presence of a textile belt in the rubber tread of the tyre to prevent the tyre from deforming and ballooning during high speed operations.
The MFT technology keeps the tyre in shape, even during powerful accelerations and high-speed runs.
The well-known ballooning of a normal tyre without MFT technology that disturbs the entire shape and where the diameter of the tyre changes under these extreme conditions, is now part of the past. The MFT Technology provides increased stability, significant more road contact and the tyre life is extended.
Important
The tyre with MFT technology is usually a bit heavier and larger in size then normal tyres without the MFT technology. We recommend to check your gear ratio and adjust if needed. We also recommend to update your steering servo as these tyres provide more grip and may overload a standard servo.
