Are metal valves safe?
Every time we change tires, many tire stores will take the opportunity to sell a product - metal valves. Then tell users that "the valve is safer and better quality than the original valve". Some users are willing to pay for it when they hear this. Some car owners will think that "the original valve must be more assured".
With the continuous development of the automotive aftermarket, many automotive service industries are becoming more and more formal. The cost of replacing tires is well controlled by strategic cooperation with mainstream tire manufacturers. Not to mention, they often get some value-added services, such as free brand metal valves.
However, under the influence of the stereotype that "the original one must be the most secure", some car owners insisted on keeping the original valve when changing the tire and silently put the metal valve we provided into the trunk... Dahuyou also asked some car owners why they did so.
After all, it takes a lot of trouble to change one every time. At the same time, considering safety, metal replaceable valve nozzles are becoming more and more popular. Compared with rubber valves, metal valves can prolong the service life to a great extent. Generally speaking, there are pure copper nickel plating (the so-called "all steel valve", which is not steel) and aluminum alloy. In addition, high-end titanium alloy valves have also come out, but few people are using them because of their high price and no substantive advantages.
