The longlife of tire valve

The longlife of tire valve

First of all, look at the car configuration is the kind of tire valve, the market has a rubber material and metal material.
Because the valve stem is an inevitable aging problem of rubber material, the valve body gradually cracks, deforms, and loses its elasticity.
When the vehicle is running, the rubber valve will also oscillate back and forth with the centrifugal force, which will further promote the aging of the rubber. In general, rubber valve life is 3-4 years, which is similar to that of a tire. Therefore, it is recommended to replace the rubber valve when replacing the tire.

In order to avoid the problem of rubber valve aging, metal valves have gradually appeared in the market, and steel valves are one of them.
As the material changes, the price of steel valve tip is much higher than that of rubber valve. The service life of steel valve tip is two to three times that of rubber valve. This is mainly due to the fact that the metal material is not easily oxidized. Metal valves also have better air tightness.
