VW Amarok (T1 | 2023 - ) Aluminum Wheel Force Forged (casted) Matte Black
The Force20 beadlock rim has a two-piece construction and is offered either as a delta Force20 Monoblock Casted using a low-pressure casting process or as a forged delta Force20 Forged wheel.
The main difference between the two models lies in their strength rating: the forged beadlock rim is tested for a wheel load of 2,500 kg, while the beadlock casted is manufactured for a load capacity of 1,800 kg. Both rims are designed so that tires can be mounted with or without a beadlock ring.
What is Beadlock technology?
This is a mechanical device that firmly connects the tire to the rim: In a wheel with the usual standard design, the tire is pressed against the rim flange by the inflation pressure and thus secured. If the air pressure drops, the tire loses its grip and can subsequently slip completely off the rim. This happens, for example, if there is a puncture in the tire or if the inflation pressure has been deliberately reduced for off-road use to achieve more traction on sand, snow or mud due to the increased flexing. To prevent this dangerous situation for the vehicle and driver, the tire is pressed onto the rim flange with a beadlock ring using delta4x4's beadlock technology during assembly. This ensures that the tire is always firmly connected to the rim – whether with or without air.
Even during extremely strong acceleration or braking, the friction forces between the rim and tire may not be sufficient, so that both components can twist against each other. This is also prevented by the beadlock system, which mechanically fixes the tire. The word "bead," on the other hand, means "rim bed." Thus, Beadlock stands for "a tire that is mechanically fixed in the rim bed."
Where are beadlock rims used?
This technology originated in the military sector, where it is ensured that operational vehicles remain functional even after a complete loss of tire pressure. Armed forces require their vehicles to be able to travel briefly at a speed of 80 km/h for up to 100 kilometers. This is made possible by beadlock technology with a beadlock ring and a run-flat element.
Meanwhile, beadlock rims are increasingly used in the civilian sector – for example, in armored vehicles and increasingly in expedition vehicles and long-distance rallies. Here, the advantage is that the inflation pressure in the tires can be reduced to a minimum without the tire jumping off the rim.
