TPI (Threads Per Inch) refers to the density of threads per inch. Thanks to its additional protective ply running from one bead to the other, Michelin SHIELD CASING improves resistance to external attack on the sidewalls and reduces punctures due to impact or pinching. 3x60 TPI casing which is lightweight, durable and robust with a very high-density reinforcement ply.
