Laboratory measurements show that the average temperature rise produced on an ice surface by the passage of a rubber slider is limited by the rubbers harness. The temperature rise measurements made and observations taken during the sliding experiments help to explain this in terms of the rubber-ice micro contact area. The results are relevant to the grip of tyres on icy roads.
