3S Rain Flaps

Normally truck tyres when moving on wet roads throw up water creating poor visibility, in turn reducing vision. This creates a dangerous situation for overtaking and the vehicles following the truck. This problem has been realized in India and also in the western countries. Suitable regulations have been put in place to provide solutions to this problem.

Spray Suppression System (3S) Rainflaps designed by Time Technoplast Ltd. (TIME) is a perfect answer. These flaps consist of a unique surface formed by multiple tufts / grass blades with a strong and sturdy backing. This surface contains the water spray and reduces the pulverization of water thus limiting formation of water spray. It absorbs the kinetic energy and guides the water downwards.

The containment of spray improves visibility considerably when the trucks move on wet roads thus making travel safer.

Stringent tests carried out to evaluate the Spray Suppression System by independent research organization have found 3S performance meeting the norms of ECE / EEC (European) standards in addition to AIS 013 (Indian) norms. Accordingly, 3S Rainflaps have acquired European as well as Indian (ARAI) homologation certificate.
