I know what the phrase means in the context but it's kind of hard to translate it in a brief way. Can anyone suggest? Thank you. |

| | Chinese translation:及塑形以配合設計的輪圈 (塑形時可使用... ,但亦可不使用)。 | Explanation: I think this is talking about the structure of tires.
While the main idea is:
"Bead" means that part of the tire comprising an annular tensile member wrapped by ply cords and shaped to fit the design rim.
And the "with or without other reinforcement elements such as flippers, chippers, apexes, toe guards and chafers" part is mainly connected to the items used to shape the tire, I think it's okay to put these item in parentheses. |
