The dangers of vacuum tire self-refilling

Vacuum tires are also called pneumatic tires. They are different from bicycle tires. We have all seen bicycle tires. There is an inner tire inside the outer tire. If the tire is broken, you only need to repair the inner tire. Vacuum tires only have outer tires. Once they are deflated, you have to go to a repair shop to repair them. They are generally used in cars, trucks, buses and other tires. Because vacuum tires are wear-resistant and have strong adhesion, most motor vehicles use this type of tire. What are the hazards of vacuum tire self-filling?

The self-sealing fluid for empty tires is corrosive, so it is recommended to replace the rims as well.

First of all, the repair fluid is a kind of thing that is shaken vigorously and then passes through a short transparent plastic tube and then inflated like normal tires. However, it not only inputs air, but also quickly forms a thick film with good durability (a 16-inch tire will form a layer of at least 2 mm inside the tire after adding a regular bottle of repair fluid. The whole tire is evenly filled with the repair fluid and then the wheel generates a repair layer formed by the centrifugal force in the form of the wheel.

But please note that this repair layer is a repair film that is "thrown" into shape by the centrifugal force generated when the wheel rotates. However, this layer of film will only be "thrown" radially around the center point of the wheel to form a layer of sticky membrane to achieve the repair effect.

Therefore, these repair fluids have absolutely nothing to do with tire damage and the "steel rims" that the original poster asked about!

However, I do not recommend using repair fluid on a punctured tire and continuing to use it.

I suggest you go to a car repair shop to remove the object that punctured your car's tire and then have it professionally repaired! After all, repair fluid is only a temporary replacement and an emergency supply. Cannot be relied on for long term.

We specialize in tire repair fluid, now answer questions:

1. Tire repair principle: The self-sealing liquid contains two major components: fluid and solid powder. After adding it into the tire, inflate it. The air pressure opens the small holes inside the tire, and the plugging powder drills into the holes to plug the holes.

2. How long the tire can be repaired after being added to the tire sealant is related to the proportion of fluid in the tire sealant and the viscosity of the fluid. If the fluid has a relatively large proportion, low viscosity and good fluidity, the tire can be automatically repaired for a longer time. Repeatedly repairing 50 times is an experimental concept. The data comes from continuous punctures. In reality, a tire is punctured 3 times a year, and only 6 times in two years. But in reality, it may be very difficult to find someone who can really take care of it for two years.

3. The car is well-made, and maybe the bottle of glue you added is a bit heavy.

4. Tire sealant will eventually dry up, so you need to refill it to prevent punctures. But it is worthwhile to find a brand that lasts longer.

5. The size of the hole that can be blocked and how long it lasts are two important quality indicators, and each brand is different. If you go to the market and add a bottle of glue to fill a tubeless tire, the one that costs ten bucks may not be reliable.

6. The quality of self-sealing fluids on the market currently varies greatly. Some can only plug small holes, some are only effective at the time, and some corrode steel rims, messing up the market. There are still some good brands, such as Qiangbao, Mike, and Suerbu. In addition, our Wuji Shield is also good and can compete with the previous ones. I hope consumers will carefully distinguish them! (Whether the steel ring is corroded can be tested with ordinary pH test paper. Do not use acidic or alkaline ones.)
