Introduction to the tire valve
Introduction to the tire valve
Function:The function of tire valves is to deflate and inflate the tire to ensure valve sealing. Feature: High-density aluminum as the material. The seal rings of tire valves are produced by high-quality EPDM rubber,High temperature resistance, anti-aging, good sealing, high corrosion resistance.
Material:
1、Natural Rubber+Zinc stem+Zinc valve core;
2、Natural Rubber+brass stem+brass valve core;
3、EPDM(Pure Natural Rubber)+ brass stem+brass valve core.
Type:
1、Snap-in tubeless rubber tire valves;
2、Tubeless tire valves, chromed straight type;
3、Tubeless tire valves, chromed loudhailer type;
4、Colorful aluminum sleeve & caps rubber tire valve;5、European style O-ring seal clamp-in valve;6、Tubeless metal clamp-in valves for truck & bus.
Installation method:Remove valve core and deflate;separate tire toe port and Unloaded from its rims;Remove tire valves;clean the hole on the rim;check and make sure the valve core is screwed;install the new tire valve from inner part of rims; install correctly and inflate untill it reaches the rated pressure;screw on the new cap.
Notes:
1 Different models of tire valves are suitable for different types of tires and vehicles, the valve can not be replaced when using.
2 Caution when using the tire valves, use a pressure gauge to detect; dissipate heat before inflating; keep clean to avoid impurities entering into the tire to influence the tire air pressure; using soapy water to detect leaks.
3 The tire valve has rubber material, it may age and have cracks after time, the general useful life is 3--4 years, similar to the tire, so we need to change the tire valves together with the tires.
4 Store in a dry ventilated and protected from heat exposure, anti-corrosion, no oil warehouse.
Price: The piece of brass is higher than zinc alloy, zinc alloy has low melting point, easy to cut, the cost is lower and is recyclable.
EPDM is more expensive than natural rubber, EPDM has no impurities, the production cost is relatively high.
