How should the tire valve be maintained and how often should it be replaced?

When you go to maintain your car, I believe that you will see a small inflated mouth on the tire, called the tire valve. Despite its small size, it is no less effective than a tire.

The small valve is an important part to guard the gas in the tire. Its main function is to inflate and deflate the tire and maintain the seal after the tire is inflated.

In our daily maintenance, we can't ignore the tire valve. It is best to replace the valve regularly to reduce our hidden dangers to driving safety.

Because most of the valve materials are made of rubber products, there is a problem of aging. If you change the tires alone and ignore the valve replacement cycle, the valve is likely to age in advance, increasing driving risks.

Because the valve valve is made of rubber, it cannot avoid cracks, deformation, and loss of its elasticity.

When the vehicle is running daily, the rubber valve will swing back and forth with centrifugal force to cause various deformations, which will undoubtedly accelerate the aging of the valve.

The life of this rubber valve is generally three to five years, which is similar to the life of the tire. Therefore, when replacing the tire, remember to replace it with the valve.
