The tire is the only part of the car that is in contact with the ground, and it is also the most wear-prone part. In daily driving, tires may be nailed, so in this situation, should we repair it or replace it?
1. Sidewall leaks cannot be repaired
When the tire is driving, the sidewall will bend and deform and belong to the deformation area, and the repair material is easy to fall off and cause the tire to leak. In addition, the sidewall is composed of rubber and cord, which is weaker in strength. Even if repaired after damage, the original strength condition may not be restored.
2. Holes exceeding 6 mm in diameter cannot be repaired
The diameter of 6mm is too large, even if the tire is worn, it is easy to have accidents again. In addition, if the bead is damaged or deformed, the tread is deformed, the rubber is corroded by chemicals, or the tire is damaged by running out of air, it cannot be repaired. In these cases, the tire must be replaced.
There are several ways to repair tires:
1. The most common way to repair a tyre with a special rubber seal string into the hole of the tire. 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 is not durable enough, and it is difficult to cope with larger wounds. Usually it can only be used as a temporary remedy.
2. Another way to repair tires is sticky repair. The so-called sticky repair is to remove the injured tire from the rim, and after finding the wound, paste a special tire repair patches 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 not durable enough. After a period of water immersion and high-speed operation, air leakage will occur again in the repaired area.
3. Use a rubber patch to stick to the punctured position from the inner wall of the tread. There is a kind of rubber patches that needs to be heated, commonly known as "hot patch", this method is still effective.
