Understanding GET HOT Tire Warmers
The purpose of a tire warmer is not simply to make a tire hot. Its purpose is to reproduce the tire condition required before the motorcycle enters the track.
This page explains why GET HOT uses a fundamentally different heating structure from conventional heating-wire systems, and why consistent tire condition matters more than temperature alone.

A Different Way to Heat a TireMost tire warmers rely on heating wires. GET HOT does not. Instead, we developed a heat-generating fabric. Approximately 80,000 fine conductive filaments work together to create a broad and uniform heating surface across the tire. The objective is not simply to produce more heat. The objective is to create a more consistent tire condition without relying on a small number of highly concentrated hot spots. |

Why Conventional Heating Wires Create LimitationsA conventional wire-heater system applies heat through a limited number of contact lines. The areas directly above the wires receive stronger heat first, while the remaining areas warm gradually by thermal conduction. Even when the wires are arranged densely, there are still areas receiving direct heat and areas receiving indirect heat. To raise the entire tire to the target temperature, the heat source itself may become considerably hotter than the tire surface. This can create localized overheating and unnecessary thermal stress on the compound. |
What Is the Correct Tire Temperature?Many people ask whether 80°C, 90°C, or 100°C is the correct setting. But temperature itself is not the objective. The real question is: what tire condition are you trying to reproduce? Tire temperature and tire pressure should reflect actual running conditions. A fixed temperature is not automatically correct in every situation. Excessive heat can accelerate the degradation of oils and plasticizers in the tire compound, potentially reducing grip, consistency, and overall performance. |

The GET HOT Approach
|
Conventional concept
Limited, concentrated heat sourcesA conventional heating-wire warmer relies on a relatively small number of strong heat sources. Heat must then spread through the remaining sections of the tire. |
GET HOT concept
Wide-area, controlled heatingGET HOT distributes heat through approximately 80,000 conductive filaments operating together over a wide surface. |
Because heat is distributed over such a large area, each filament does not need to become excessively hot. The result is a broad, uniform, and controlled heating surface designed to reduce localized overheating and unnecessary stress on the tire compound.

Proven in MotorsportGET HOT tire warmers have been tested, evaluated, or used by leading factory teams and top-level racing organizations.
In 2019, GET HOT participated full-time in the Moto3 World Championship with Team Asia. The opening-race victory, together with Kawasaki Factory Racing's triumph at the Suzuka 8 Hours, became important milestones in our development history. |
Developed Through RacingGET HOT was not developed through theory alone. For more than 20 years, we have continued to refine tire preparation through practical racing experience and feedback from riders, mechanics, engineers, and factory teams. Rather than simply following conventional assumptions, we have focused on how to reproduce more suitable tire conditions before the motorcycle enters the track. This long-term development philosophy is the foundation of every GET HOT tire warmer. |

Handcrafted QualityGET HOT tire warmers cannot be produced entirely by automated mass production. Because of their unique structure and the precision required during production, each warmer is carefully assembled, adjusted, and inspected by hand. This process takes time, but it allows us to maintain the consistent quality expected from a professional racing product.
Because production capacity is limited, delivery times may be longer
than those of ordinary mass-produced products. We sincerely
appreciate your understanding.

Every Setup Begins with Tire Management
Without consistent tire temperature and pressure, suspension data, chassis setup, and rider feedback cannot be evaluated accurately.
GET HOT was developed to create a controlled and repeatable starting condition before the motorcycle leaves the pit lane.
Consistency creates reliable feedback. Reliable feedback creates confidence. Confidence creates speed.
