What should you pay attention to when inflating your car tires?

1. Pay attention to safety when inflating. Check the air pressure with a pressure gauge at any time to avoid the tire bursting due to over-inflation. Replace the tire with a new one. Fill with nitrogen = comfort + fuel saving. Tips for car owners: Buy "low-carbon" tires


2. After stopping driving, wait for the tire to dissipate heat before inflating, because the tire temperature will rise when the vehicle is driving, which will affect the air pressure.


3. Check the valve. If the valve and valve core are not matched evenly, there are convex and concave phenomena and other defects, it is inconvenient to inflate and measure the air pressure.


4. Pay attention to cleanliness when inflating. The air filled in cannot contain moisture and oil to prevent the inner tube rubber from deteriorating and damaging.


5. When inflating, the standard pressure should not be exceeded too much before deflation, and it should not be over-inflated because it cannot be inflated after going out for a long time. If it exceeds the standard too much, it will cause the cord to stretch too much, causing its strength to decrease, affecting the life of the tire.


6. Before inflation, wipe off the dust on the valve and do not loosen the valve core. After inflation, apply soapy water (or saliva) on the valve to check for leaks (if leaks, small bubbles will be generated), and install the valve cap to prevent mud and sand from entering the valve.


7. When radial tires are inflated, due to structural reasons, their sinking amount and ground contact area are large, which is often mistaken for insufficient inflation and excessive inflation, or vice versa, because their sinking amount and ground contact area are originally large, they are also mistaken for being sufficient when the air pressure is insufficient. Use a standard air pressure gauge to measure. The operating pressure of radial tires should be 0.5-1.5kg/cm2 higher than that of general tires.


8. The air pressure gauge on the vehicle or the air pressure gauge used in the tire workshop should be calibrated regularly to ensure accurate air pressure inspection.


How often should car tires be inflated? There is no very standard answer to this question. It is recommended that car owners check the tire pressure once a month. Once the tire pressure is found to be abnormal, the tire pressure should be adjusted in time to avoid tire blowout due to insufficient tire pressure or excessive pressure.
