Maxima Spina Tyre Warmer
The Maxima Spina tyre warmers are the historic models of Capit since 1996. They were the first blankets produced by Capit, recommended for both amateur and professional pilots. They were also the world’s first electric blankets designed in a spherical shape rather than a rectangular shape.
These blankets have a rich history of success, having been used by Valentino Rossi in 2004 when he won the world championship and by many other champions since then.
They have a direct connection to the electrical network and only one uniform pre-set temperature, making them ideal for both amateur and professional pilots due to their stability and durability. They also feature two side fabric bands to cover the tire and disperse temperature as evenly as possible.
- Tear-resistant and extremely waterproof (certified IP54)
- Their softness and reduced thickness, as well as their spherical shape (the first in the world), ensure a tire cover that is unmatched in fit.
- A special aluminum membrane and a tightly-woven Teflon heating cable ensure exceptional uniformity. The side fabric bands also provide good insulation for the wheel.
- Achieving a uniform temperature of 90°C (195°F) in just 40 minutes.
- External rubber cable resistant to accidental temperatures.
- 3-year-warranty and 100% Made in Italy

The Maxima Spina tyre warmers are the historic models of Capit since 1996. They were the first blankets produced by Capit, recommended for both amateur and professional pilots.
Their waterproofing, thickness, and softness fabrics ensure a perfect fit on the tyre. A special aluminum membrane and a heating coil made of Teflon guarantee exceptional homogeneity. The aluminum not only distributes heat perfectly on the tire, but also prevents it from being dispersed outward.
The Maxima line is characterized by the Spherical Shape, a special textile construction that, thanks to its 16 lateral clips, allows it to perfectly follow the shape of the tire and cover the tire’s shoulders more fully.
This advanced technology guarantees the achievement of a fixed temperature of 85°C (190°F) in just 50 minutes. The Maxima line has no bimetallic thermostat (TNT system), which avoids possible breaks over time. Each CAPIT electric blanket is designed to withstand accidental crushing by cars or motorcycles.
The blanket features a special external rubber connection cable designed to withstand accidental temperatures caused, for example, by the exhaust pipe or brake disc. This feature sets us apart from competing imported products that use PVC and silicone cables, which are not suitable for the racing world.
This choice allows us to differentiate ourselves from the competition, which uses PVC or silicone cables that are not suitable for the racing world.
Maxima Spina tyre warmers are guaranteed for three years and are manufactured entirely in Italy.

Thermography
Thermography shows how Capit’s technology offers better performance thanks to the TEFLON heating cable, unlike all the other brands of tyre warmers that use silicone. No Capit tyre warmer, in fact, is susceptible to accidental crushing of the car or motorcycle. Heat is evenly distributed throughout the tyre, ensuring safety, tyre grip on the track, and optimal performance.
