The tires of a car are equivalent to the shoes on our feet. A pair of suitable good shoes can make us walk fast, but if there is a problem with the shoes, it may be uncomfortable to walk, or it may fall or even sprain the foot. Your car’s tires will inevitably be punctured by sharp objects. Do you know how to deal with a tire burst? Here are some tips to teach you:
First-aid type: Gun repair. The most common way to repair a tire is to insert a special rubber strip into the hole of the tire. The master of the tire repair shop usually calls it a gun repair. The biggest advantage of this method is that it is quick and convenient. It only takes a few minutes and does not need to pry the tire off the rim. The defect of the gun-type tire repair is that it is not durable enough, and it is also difficult to cope with larger wounds. Usually, it can only be used as a temporary remedy.
Blocking type: Sticky patch. There is another way to repair tires is a sticky patch. The so-called sticky repair is to remove the injured tire from the rim, and after finding the wound, stick a special tire repair rubber from the inner layer of the tire to complete the leak. The advantage of this method is that it can repair larger wounds, but the disadvantage is that it is still not durable enough. After a period of water immersion and high-speed operation, air leakage will occur again in the repaired area.
Final type: Fire repair. The most thorough tire repair measure is often said to fire repair. Fire repair also needs to pry off the tire, and then attach a special raw film to the wound, and then use a baking machine to bake the wound until the raw film is completely attached to the tire. The advantage of fire compensation is that it is very durable, and there is no need to worry about repeated air leakage. However, it also has disadvantages, that is, the technical requirements during construction are relatively high, because once the fire control during baking is not good, the tires will likely be scorched, and severely deformed. In that case, the tires may be damaged.
Professionals point out that the methods of repairing tires are diverse, but not universal. If the tire wall (that is, the side of the tire) has a wound larger than 1 cm, or the tire crown is pierced by steel bars and other objects, causing a big loophole, it is generally best to replace the tire. Because such a tire is not only difficult to repair, the effect after repairing can not be reassuring, just let it retire.
As for doing it yourself, many automatic tire repair agents on the market have certain effects, but they also have strong limitations. For example, if the leaked tires have leaked out, it will be difficult to work. The biggest defect of this tire repair agent is that it is very corrosive. Whether it is a steel ring or an alloy rim, there will be greater damage for a long time, and this damage directly leads to the failure of the steel ring, and the tire to seal Strictly causes air leakage.
